Has anyone used products from this company?

I have a commerical structured wiring client who has named this product by name.

I've seen ads for it in the magazines, but have no hands on experience.

I've requested information from the company and plan to call them tomorrow, but any help on where it is available or pricing (feel free to PM) would be great!

It has been a while, but I think I bought it at Graybar. Nice stuff and easy to install. Sorry I don't have more info at the moment.

If you need the curves or are doing a fairly small set of runs, it's great - budget around $15/ft for the tray + fittings. However, if you are doing long runs, B-line wiretray comes in around $5/ft and has a lot more fittings available.

The biggest install accelerator with b-line is the threaded rod hanger - if sparky is hanging threaded rod, you can use the WB hanger which just clips to the rod. With snake-tray you need access to the end of the rod - you need to hang it exactly according to the tray hole spacing and you need to take off anything else attached to the rod.
