METAR Equal Tees (ET) and Unequal Tees (UT) are designed
to create perpendicular coplanar connections between horizontal
cable runs (ladder installed in horizontal plane) and between
vertical cable runs (ladder installed in vertical plane).

METAR Tees are available in widths from 150mm to 1050mm as standard. METAR tees are
available with standard radii of 300mm, 450mm, 600mm, 750mm, 900mm, 1050mm & 1200mm.
Other widths between 100mm to 1500mm and radii, subject to cable ladder type, are
also available.

The METAR Tee radial side walls are manufactured with a repeatable and true radius which
eliminates the traditional approach of ‘make it fit’ during installation.

All METAR Tees are now manufactured with a Metalok Coupler, removing the need for
separate couplers in the joining mechanism between cable ladder fittings and straight lengths of
ladder. All METAR Tees will be supplied with all necessary fixings.

The rungs in the METAR Tees are spaced to give a maximum linear distance of no more than
465mm between adjacent rungs/rungs on adjacent ladder and fittings. The rungs are orientated
with the open face uppermost to suit the use of cleats and similar cable restraint devices. This
allows compliance with current recommendations for cable restraint, especially where cables are
used which have a high potential fault current level.

Tees have a primary or main width (Wm) and a secondary or branch width (Wb). Tees with the
same primary and secondary widths are called equal tees. Tees with differing main and branch
widths are called unequal tees.

WHEN JOINING ONE FITTING TO ANOTHER TO SUIT ON SITE INSTALLATION
REQUIREMENTS THE USE OF A FITTING TO FITTING COUPLER (FFC) WILL
BE REQUIRED. PLEASE REFER TO PG 73 FOR FURTHER DETAILS
