Fast to Install. Simple to Adjust. Built to Last.

 

Fast Trak is a game-changing alternative to traditional threaded rod and strut trapeze suspension systems. Designed for speed, safety, and simplicity, it allows you to create trapeze or cantilever brackets in a fraction of the time, no cutting, no-hot works, and no fuss.

The Fast Trak® Standard system is the core of the Gripple Fast Trak range. A dual track pre-fabricated trapeze suspension designed for supporting MEP services such as ductwork, pipework, cable containment and busbar.

Each kit includes pre-fabricated suspension tracks and our patented Smart-Bracket, which locks securely into place with a simple push-button mechanism. The bracket can be adjusted vertically in seconds, with no tools required, and supports working loads up to 200 kg.

Ideal for suspending ductwork, cable containment, pipework, and more, Fast Trak is available in a wide range of track lengths and bracket widths to suit your project. It’s fire tested to F120 (BS EN 1363-1:2020), approved by Lloyds and TUV and backed by our full technical support service from design to installation.

Every product in the range is backed by independently verified Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs), giving transparent data on environmental impact and supporting your drive toward sustainable construction.

How it Works:

Installing Fast Trak Standard – quick, simple and safe. See how it works below, or download the full technical data pack for more details.

Download the Technical Data Pack
Step 1: Using the marking indentations on the ends of the Fast Trak cartridge, mark the fixing point location for the vertical drops.
Step 2: Use the screws provided to fix the tracks to the soffit, ensuring that the tracks are facing outwards.
Step 3: Press and hold both of the Fast Trak cartridges inwards simultaneously to retract the latches.
Step 4: Locate the tracks into the cartridge slots. Continue to press the cartridges inwards whilst the bracket is lifted to the correct height. When the bracket is at the correct height, release the cartridges to lock it in position.
Step 5: Fold any track which extends below the bracket inwards and up underneath the bracket for a flush finish.

Range Variants

Our Fast Trak Standard system is available with a range of track lengths for different suspension drops, and bracket widths to allow for suspension of a range of services.

“Using Fast Trak allowed us to achieve our Ten Ton Challenge goal!”
We implemented the Ten Ton Challenge initiative for this project to reduce carbon emissions on the project by Ten tons. Using Gripple (Fast Trak) products played a key role in achieving this goal, supported by robust data such as EPD’s and other sustainability documentation. This comprehensive information made it straightforward to demonstrate and communicate the carbon reduction benefits effectively.
Darren Rhys-Thomas, Senior Design Manager | Morgan Sindall
“Using Fast Trak eliminated hot works permits and plant hire”
We would normally use traditional rod and channel and cut everything down on-site. On this project, we used Gripple Fast Trak to assist us with program requirements… this eliminated hot works and plant hire for cutting which gave us additional cost savings.
