1.5.1 Standard Track Bends 

The single track is also available in bends to allow a system to change direction. The standard track bends are available in the following angles: 15⁰, 22.5⁰, 45⁰ and 90⁰. 

The track bends are only available in the lengths stated below and are required to have additional fixings for security.  
15⁰, 22.5⁰ and 45⁰ bends require a minimum of 4 fixing points evenly distributed along its length. While the 90⁰ bend requires a minimum of 5 fixing points, ensuring that the additional fixing is placed directly at the center of the bend. See the images above for reference. 

The track bends can be cut to length to suit the installation requirements but must only be cut along the straight section of the track, this section must be 100mm from the beginning of the bend in the track.  

It is recommended that when fixing track bends with straight track, the straight track is cut to length to allow a  track bend to be fitted. The track bend may be required to be cut when placed at the end of the track system,  (i.e. The track bend will be up against the wall) in this scenario, the track bend can be cut to the required length.  

When cutting the track bend, the final bracket will still need to be fitted to the end of the track if the overhang exceeds 250mm.

1.5.2 Quick Bend 

The single track is also available as a quick bend, the quick bend is a shorter length track which allows the installation into tighter areas. The quick bend also has a tighter radius meaning that only ceiling lifts with a short wheel base are suitable.  

Ceiling lifts include: TX Advanced, CPP, CP, CT, CPR 

The quick bend is available at 22.5°, 45° and 90°. The quick track only requires 2 fixing points, using 110mm brackets which will align the bend with the straight track.
