[pdf] Creating a 90-degree elbow in an electrical cable tray, often called a "fabricated" or "mitered" bend, involves cutting, bending, and fastening a straight section of tray. The most common method involves creating two 45-degree cuts to form a 90-degree angle. For example, use 100mm gaps for 100mm. 4 Turn tray open-side down and cut wires from bottom of tray. Completely adaptable, B-Line Flextray is designed to accommodate jobsite changes. Need more information?How to calculate size of cut-out section (D) for a pre-determined angle set Eg. By applying the following formula you can quickly find the size of cut out section that you need to cut out of the side of.
