Cable Ladder
Heavy-duty steel ladder for long spans and high cable weights, in the harsh conditions of a mine, a power plant, or an offshore platform. Made in Tangerang in standard widths from 100 to 1000 millimetres, SLW perforated and SLU plain, rungs at 150 or 300 mm spacing. Hot-dip galvanised as standard, or Jotun powder-coated for exposed architectural runs.

Applications
Where this line lives.
-
Power-plant and substation control cable runs, where the ladder rail carries the weight of kilometre-long bundled cabling.
-
Mining conveyor and crusher buildings. Hot-dip galvanised ladder stands up to airborne coal dust and wash-down.
-
Offshore platforms and marine conversion yards, finished in hot-dip galvanised to ISO 1461 for chloride exposure.
Built for span and weight
A Metosu cable ladder is a structural element before it is a container. The side rails carry the load; the rungs hold the cables. SLW-series rails are pressed from 1.2 to 3.0 mm steel, perforated for cable-tie and clamp fixing, and welded rung-to-rail at our Tangerang facility. Standard lengths run 2400 and 3000 mm, with 6000 mm available on engineering request for long-span installations.
Tested by a third party
Sucofindo (IDSurvey) load-tested the cable ladder to NEMA VE 1-2017, Class 8C, with a result of 1,340 kg per span on a 2,400 mm span. Test reports are available for tender and vendor verification.
Standard cable ladder sizes
These are the standard sizes in our catalogue, in 3 metre lengths. SLW and SLU share the same geometry. The only difference is the perforation: SLW is perforated, SLU is plain.
| Width (mm) | Height (mm) | Length (mm) | SLW (perforated) | SLU (plain) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 100 | 100 | 3,000 | SLW 100/100 | SLU 100/100 |
| 150 | 100 | 3,000 | SLW 150/100 | SLU 150/100 |
| 200 | 100 | 3,000 | SLW 200/100 | SLU 200/100 |
| 300 | 100 | 3,000 | SLW 300/100 | SLU 300/100 |
| 350 | 100 | 3,000 | SLW 350/100 | SLU 350/100 |

Ladder fittings (inside and outside risers, flat-wise elbows and crosses, equal tees, and reducers) have their part codes and drawings in the catalogue.
Substrate and finish
Hot-dip galvanised to ISO 1461 is the default for outdoor and industrial installations, and it is the choice for marine and coastal exposure. Pre-galvanised is available for dry indoor runs and is faster to produce. Jotun powder coating is the alternative for exposed architectural runs where the ladder itself is part of the visible service design: any RAL colour, 60–80 µm build over a galvanised base.
Metosu since 1984
Metosu was established in 1984. Our cable ladder is fabricated and coated at the Tangerang facility, from sheet steel to finished product.

Questions buyers ask us.
- Is there a 600 mm wide cable ladder?
- Yes. 600 mm is one of our standard widths, at 100 mm height and 3 metres per length. The full table is on this page and in the catalogue. Sizes outside the table are made to your project drawing.
- What is the difference between SLW and SLU?
- The geometry is identical. SLW is perforated for cable ties and clamps, SLU is non-perforated. Part codes follow the same size, for example SLW 600/100 and SLU 600/100.
- What load can Metosu cable ladder carry?
- 1,340 kg per span, Class 8C to NEMA VE 1-2017. Sucofindo tested it on a 2,400 mm span (report E26929/FNBPAS, 18 July 2025). Test reports are available for tenders.
- Hot-dip galvanised or powder-coated?
- For outdoor, coastal, and industrial areas, specify hot-dip galvanised to ISO 1461. For exposed runs that need a colour, specify Jotun powder coating over a galvanised base in any RAL.
- Are fittings and non-standard sizes available?
- Yes. Ladder fittings cover inside and outside risers, flat-wise elbows, flat-wise crosses, equal tees, and reducers, each with its part code and drawing in the catalogue. Custom widths are made to your project drawing.
- How fast can you deliver?
- The Tangerang facility holds 700+ standard SKUs in ready stock. Project-scale orders are typically dispatched in days, and we deliver across Indonesia.
