CGS – 250.8P
Medium Multiplate Carriage Body
Multiplate carriage body with 8 wheels and sealed bearings. Large pivot allows for increased weight capacity, smooth sliding and stability. Larger wheel dimensions increase the weight capability and reduce wear and tear between wheels and tracks.
CGS – 245P
Medium Galvanized Track
The tracks are galvanized and structurally sound which gives them flexibility and permits carrying high loads without distortion. You can build the gate right on the track. The track is made from low carbon steel which allows for excellent weldability.
CGS – 347P
End Wheel for UL325 Compliance
The End Wheel bolts into each end of the track and complies with UL325 safety code for automated gates. It gives a finished look and prevents dirt, snow, etc. from getting inside the track and interfering with the operation of the carriages. The wheel allows the gate to roll into the bottom end cup without scraping the paint or galvanized coating.
CGS – 346P
Bottom End Cup
This cup receives the track in either the closed or open position. The beveled leading edge allows for a smooth entry and stop. The cup holds the gate steady, reducing vibrations from wind conditions, etc., and prolongs the life of the carriages and gate operators.
CG – 15P
Adjustable Mounting Bracket
The mounting bracket is used for the bottom end cup and gate receiver and is horizontally adjustable to easily align with the gate frame. It allows them to be mounted to the side of the receiving post for UL325 compliance.
CG – 30M
Gate Receiver, 2” to 3”
The adjustable gate receiver fits the gate frame size. The nylon rollers reduce scraping the paint and galvanized coating. The receiver holds the gate in position while closed, reducing movement caused by the wind or people trying to push through the gate.
CG – 348 – M16
J-Bolt, Galvanized
Galvanized J-Bolts are set into the concrete pad as it is poured. Once it has cured, the carriages are then secured to the pad using these bolts. J-Bolts are the preferred method of anchoring the carriages to the concrete pad. Wedge anchors with two-part epoxy will work but need to be sized to each load according to manufacturer’s recommendations.
CG – 05P
Foundation Plate
The foundation plate provides a solid base for leveling the carriage on the pad. It prevents the leveling screws from digging into the pad and causing long term alignment issues. By keeping the carriage bottom from being in direct contact with the concrete pad, it slows down corrosion effects.
CGI – 40
Tension Bars - Stainless Steel
The tension bar acts as a turnbuckle and builds in gate adjustability to moderate long term sag and post movement problems. Fits into 50mm square tubing and can be adapted to use in Imperial tubing sizes.
