Gripple, a renowned manufacturer specializing in engineered suspension solutions for construction and critical infrastructure, is focusing attention on its Fast Trak system. This innovative suspension system is engineered to enhance mechanical and electrical installations, promoting speed, safety, and efficiency.
Fast Trak offers a contemporary alternative to traditional methods, notably improving project timelines by facilitating installations up to six times faster than the conventional use of threaded rods or channels.
Enhanced Safety and Efficiency
The prefabricated system of Fast Trak replaces the need for on-site cutting of threaded rods or channels
The prefabricated system of Fast Trak replaces the need for on-site cutting of threaded rods or channels, thereby reducing the risk of injury significantly and simplifying labor requirements.
This not only creates safer project environments, but also contributes to streamlined on-site logistics through its tool-free adjustment features.
Installers can easily adjust the bracket along the tracks, enabling quick positioning changes without additional tools. After leveling, any excess track can be conveniently snapped off, ensuring a cleaner finish.
On-Site Flexibility
Fast Trak is designed to offer on-site flexibility through its unique four-sided bracket that supports trade attachments from any side, making it an all-inclusive support solution. This configuration allows for faster and more flexible multi-tiered trapeze installations.
Additionally, the system includes measurement indicators to aid ceiling marking and level markers on the tracks at 2 1/4-inch intervals for precise leveling.
Streamlined Logistics
The system's design prioritizes simplifying on-site logistics, minimizing storage requirements
The system's design prioritizes simplifying on-site logistics, minimizing storage requirements, and maintaining an organized workspace.
With pre-sized and prefabricated components, Fast Trak eliminates the need for bulk storage and hot works cutting of large sections.
Systems are conveniently packed in compact boxes with integrated handles, facilitating easy storage and transport around job sites.
Versatility and Compliance
Fast Trak caters to mechanical and electrical services with working load capacities up to 650 lbs. It is available in multiple bracket and track lengths, allowing contractors to customize installations based on site-specific needs and spatial limitations.
The system accommodates both uniformly distributed loads and single-point loads, offering versatility across projects. Fast Trak complies with ICC-ESR-4622 and IAPMO approvals, MFMA and DSA/OSHPD standards, and has undergone fire testing to F120 and MPA 1363-1 standards, ensuring broad applicability and reliability.
By emphasizing speed, versatility, and site efficiency with the Fast Trak system, Gripple continues its dedication to delivering innovative and secure solutions for modern construction projects. Fast Trak stands as a pivotal development in engineered suspension systems, reflecting the company's commitment to advancing construction methodologies.
Gripple, a major manufacturer of engineered suspension solutions for construction and critical infrastructure applications, is proud to highlight Fast Trak, an innovative suspension system engineered to transform mechanical and electrical installations. Designed to streamline projects with speed, safety, and efficiency, Fast Trak delivers industry-pioneering performance.
Fast Trak sets a new benchmark in installation speed, enabling installers to complete projects up to six times faster than traditional threaded rod or channel systems, reducing labor time and accelerating project schedules. The intuitively designed, prefabricated system eliminates the need to cut threaded rod or channel on-site, significantly minimizing injury risk and simplifying on-site labor requirements for safer project environments.
On-site flexibility
Engineered for on-site flexibility, Fast Trak's tool-free adjustment allows the bracket to glide smoothly up and down the tracks, allowing installers to make on-the-fly positioning changes without additional tools. The track bends neatly under the bracket or excess track can be snapped off after leveling for a streamlined finish.
Fast Trak features a distinctive four-sided bracket providing full flexibility for trade attachments on any side of the bracket. This versatile configuration makes Fast Trak an all-in-one support solution, making multi-tiered trapeze installations faster, cleaner, and more flexible.
User-friendly measurement indicators at each end of the bracket simplify ceiling marking, and level markers on the tracks at every 2 1/4-inch increment make leveling fast and precise.
Streamlined on-site logistics
The entire system is designed for streamlined on-site logistics, reducing storage needs and ensuring a neat, organized workspace from start to finish. Brackets are pre-sized and prefabricated; so, storage and cutting (hot works) of large, 10-foot sections of strut or rod is necessary. Fast Trak systems are packed in compact boxes with integrated handles for ease of storage and movement around job sites.
Fast Trak accommodates working loads up to 650 lbs., meeting the demands of mechanical and electrical services. Fast Trak is available in multiple bracket and track lengths, enabling contractors to tailor installations to specific site requirements and space constraints.
The system supports both uniformly distributed loads (UDL) and single-point loads (SPL) in diverse bracket and orientation combinations, ensuring broad applicability across mechanical and electrical projects.
Design versatility and modularity
Compliance is central to Fast Trak’s design, with Fast Trak holding ICC-ESR-4622 and IAPMO approvals, MFMA and DSA/OSHPD compliance, and having undergone fire testing to F120 and MPA 1363-1 standards.
With industry-pioneering installation speed, design versatility and modularity, neat zero-waste finishing, and robust durability, Fast Trak reinforces Gripple’s commitment to innovative, efficient, and safe solutions for today’s construction environments. With Fast Trak, Gripple sets a new benchmark for speed, safety, and site efficiency in engineered suspension.
