Cable hangers are devices used to support and organize cables in electrical installations. They are typically made of durable materials such as metal or plastic and are designed to securely hold cables in place, preventing them from sagging or becoming tangled.
Cable hangers are commonly used in various applications, including residential, commercial, and industrial settings. They are often installed on walls, ceilings, or other structures to provide a stable and organized cable management solution.
These hangers come in different types and sizes to accommodate various cable diameters and weights. Some common types of cable hangers include:
1. J-Hooks: These hangers have a J-shaped design and are commonly used for suspending cables from overhead structures. They provide a secure and reliable support for cables.
