We will look in-depth at transportation, stocking inventory, and use on the job. Continue reading to learn these three advantages of choosing seismic bracing cable.
Transport Between Jobs:
Rigid bracing is a bulky product that requires you to have multiple lengths of pipe to complete seismic installations. The long lengths of pipe mean that you will need a large truck bed to get your pipe to the job site. However, our cable bracing comes in compact in 250 ft. spools. The small size of our product means that you can easily store our cable and get it to the job site with no unnecessary hassle.
Stocking Inventory:
Another advantage of cable bracing’s small size is that it takes up little room on your facility’s shelf. Rigid pipe takes up a lot of room due to its length and need for multiple sizes to complete bracing projects. Our cable is available in four main sizes, meaning that you will never take up much room at your facility by holding stock of our cable.
Transport on Job Site:
Due to the size of our cable bracing you will be able to easily move your cable and required attachment hardware around your job site. Rigid bracing also requires three people to install, whereas cable bracing can be installed by just one person.
