Cable tray density

What density is used for cable trays? We use these standard densities: Hot-dip galvanized steel – 7850 kg/m³, Stainless steel 304 – 7930 kg/m³, Aluminum 6063 – 2700 kg/m³. This tool estimates tray self-weight from material density and an approximate metal volume. For solid and perforated trays, it treats the tray as a formed sheet: Ladder trays use a practical approximation: two rails plus average rung material per meter based on rung spacing. Comply with NEMA and IEC load limits. Toggle.
