B-Line Eaton series Flex tray wire basket tray, Food preparation and wash down areas applications, Stainless steel type 316, Steel, 107.3" actual area

The B-Line Eaton Flex tray FT6X18X10 is an 18 inch wide basket tray with a 6 inch deep profile. Overall height measures 6.38 inches and the length runs 118.312 inches, so it covers just under 10 feet per section. Usable area inside the tray is stated at 107.3 inches, which is the figure to use when you are working out cable fill rather than the nominal 18 inch width.

That is exactly what the FT6X18X10 Flex tray is specified for. Eaton B-Line lists it for food preparation and wash down area applications, where trays get hosed down and have to shed water rather than hold it. The open wire basket construction drains and lets you see the cable run during inspection, which is what food-service and processing facilities are generally looking for above a prep line.

Each FT6X18X10 section weighs 25.06 lb bare, at 118.312 inches long and 18 inches wide. That is a one-man lift empty, but plan your hanger and trapeze spacing around the loaded weight once cable is in the basket, since the cable bundle will be several times the tray weight on a run that wide.

Yes, CE is the certification carried on this Eaton B-Line Flex tray. If your submittal calls out any other listing or standard beyond CE, verify it against the manufacturer submittal sheet for the run you are specifying.

Depth is a cable-volume decision. The 6 inch deep Flex tray in the 18 inch width gives you a large cross section for heavy data or power bundles, or for a run you expect to add to later. A shallower basket is easier to fit above a low ceiling or under ductwork and keeps the bundle flatter for dressing. If the run is already full at install, go deeper; if you are tight on plenum height, the 6 inch profile at 6.38 inches overall height may not clear.

In a washdown environment, yes. This Flex tray is built as a stainless steel tray specifically for food prep and washdown areas, where daily sanitation chemicals and constant moisture will attack a plated or pre-galvanized finish at the cut ends and welds. In dry interior office or plenum work, a standard galvanized basket tray does the same mechanical job for less.
