Industrial Curtain Track Hardware

OVERVIEW

Industrial Curtain Track with roller hooks allows you to roll the industrial curtain side to side which allows maximum access to both sides of your work area. The heavy duty curtain track is modular in design in that it comes in 2,3,4,5,6, 8 and 10’ lengths that easily bolt together.

Made For Industrial Use

Industrial Curtain Track

Akon can supply several different types of industrial curtain track mounts to hang your curtain (See Below). These tracks are made from strong 16 gauge galvanized steel or stainless steel for USDA Curtains. The heavy duty curtain tracks come in 2,3,4,5,6,8 and 10 foot lengths which splice together to form any length. This track utilizes radius corners to form enclosures or floor plates to be free-standing.

Curtain Track Corners

Almost any configuration is possible with the use of the 90-degree radius corners. These 24” radius corners allow the curtain to roll from one side to the other with ease. Hard 90 degree corners are also available.

Curtain Track Supports

Depending on your needs, you can choose from many different track supports. The track supports are what holds the curtain track up. These supports clamp/bolt onto the straight track and are spaced about every 5’ to 8’ depending on your industrial curtain weight. See the different styles below.

industrial curtain rollers

Industrial Curtain Hooks

The roller hooks allow the curtain to easily roll from side-to-side with minimal friction. These industrial curtain hooks come in two styles which are Nylon or Steel wheels with ball bearings. Nylon Rollers have a 40lb capacity while the steel rollers have a 75lb capacity. The steel wheels are utilized for very heavy curtains. They are spaced every 12” in the track.

Magnetic Curtain Hooks

Magnetic curtain hangers can support 65lbs for each hook. They are a versatile option for hanging  curtains that don't require any drilling. They also allow you to quickly take them down when not needed. You would only need a few of these to support a long stretch of curtain. Not supplied by AKON but readily available from most hardware stores and online stores.
Side-to-side movement: NO

Construction

The curtain tracks are constructed from galvanized steel that is used both indoors and outdoors. Unlike most curtain track hardware which is lightweight and made for light duty use, our industrial curtain track hardware is heavy duty and made to last. These tracks are made for industrial abuse. The steel curtain track is 16 gauge thickness. (Note 16 gauge = 0.0635 inches).

General Overview

Detailed Overview

FAQ

Does the hardware come in any colors?

No. The hardware comes as plain galvanized steel. You can use spray paint to paint the track once it arrives. Example shown below.

painted-curtain-track-1

What are the dimensions of the curtain track?

Below you will see the dimensions of the standard 16 gauge curtain track.

Track-Spacing

How much weight can the roller hooks support?

The curtain track roller hook weight limits are as follows:

  • (2) Wheel Nylon Roll Hooks - 40lbs Capacity each
  • (2) Wheel Steel Roller Hooks - 75lbs Capacity each
  • (4) Wheel Steel Roller Hooks - 125lbs Capacity each

Should I deduct curtain height to accommodate the curtain track?

If we quote you a curtain and a track we generally deduct 3" from your requested curtain height to accommodate for the curtain track. This keeps your curtain just off of the floor.

Will the curtain track rust?

The curtain track is a 16 gauge hot dipped galvanized steel. It is designed for use in wash bays, outdoor use and  indoor use. It has a lifetime warranty and will not rust.

Straight-Splice-Connector-1

I want my curtains to overlap each other what hardware should I use?

You can have your curtains overlap with an overlap trolley as shown below. When you ask for your quote simply ask for this trolley.

Overlapping_Trolley-1

Installation

How hard is it to install the industrial curtain track?

It is very easy. All of the components simply fit into each other and connect with set screws. The installation is very intuitive. If you have any difficulty simply call or email us and we will walk you through the process.

Can I simply drill straight through the track and into the ceiling / structure?

Yes. This is called a flush mount install and is very common. Simply drill through the middle of the track and use a small wood screw, bolt, Tek screw...ect into your structure. Space the holes about every 3-5'.

What keeps the rollers from rolling out of the end of the track?

Each track comes with end stops that contain the rollers inside of the curtain track.

How close together do I need the track supports?

The track should be supported approximately every 5' with a track support. The farther apart the track supports, the greater the deflection. If you have a relatively light weight curtain then you could space the supports out to about 8' apart.

What size threaded rod do I use for the threaded rod curtain track?

You would use a 3/8"  threaded rod which you can get from any local hardware store.

Whats a "splice" and what is a "connector"?

A Splice connects two pieces of track together and holds up the track. A Connector only holds up the track. AKON now only supplies the splice connectors since they are dual purpose as a splice and a track support. You simply slide the splice down the track to your desired location. Ideally you want to support the track every 5-8 feet.
