Technical Data Sheet 

Performa Mesh 

Mesh Cable Tray 

Applications 

Performa Mesh Trays are one of the most 

flexible solutions on the market for routing of 

cables, in light and medium duty installations. 

The double transversal wires ensure 

Performa Mesh Trays comply with all safety 

requirements for installers and cables; in 

addition, they give higher safety working 

load values as compared to other available 

products on the market. 

The smart, screw-less accessories cover all 

needs, and are quick and easy to use. It’s 

simple to make angles on site. Just cut and 

bend the mesh tray to the desired angle and 

use the fast-fix locking-clips to fix and secure 

the wires. 

The three different finishes make it easy to 

choose the right option for all environments 

and applications in commercial buildings, 

industry and infrastructure.

EZ: Electro-zinc (according to EN 12329-1) is a process that deposits a thin layer of zinc over the 

steel through an electro-chemical process, with an additional passivation that gives a typical shiny 

grey colour. The benefits of this process are control over zinc thickness and smoother surfaces. 

HDG: Hot-dip galvanisation (EN ISO 1461) is the process of coating steel with a zinc layer, by 

passing the steel through a molten bath of zinc at a temperature of more than 400 °C. The result is a 

surface treatment that protects the steel from environmental elements. 

SS: Stainless steel AISI 304 (EN 10088-2) offers a high resistance to aggressive atmospheres. The 

pickling and passivation processes taking place after manufacturing improve the degree of protection 

of the steel. 

PG: Pre-galvanised steel (EN 10346) is carbon steel that has gone through a zinc bath just after 

rolling. Good protection against oxidation and rust. 

LZ: Lamellar zinc is a zinc and aluminium coating with a degree of resistance to severe atmosphere 

comparable to that of hot dip galvanised steel. It is used for small items to achieve a smooth surface. 

BC: Bi-chromate (according to 12329-1) is a process that deposits a thin layer of zinc over the steel 

through an electro-chemical process, with an additional passivation that gives a typical yellow colour. 

The benefits of this process are control over zinc thickness and smoother surfaces.

How to obtain the same angle with different bending 

radii function of numbers of cuts. 

Example: 

For a mesh tray width of W = 300, to realise 

an angle of 60°. 

OPTION 1: 3 cuts (20° + 20° + 20°) 

OPTION 2: 2 cuts (30° + 30°) 

These examples can apply for any width of mesh trays.
