Middle Atlantic AL Raceway Base 10FT. - ALA3800B-10

Middle Atlantic ALA3800B-10 Aluminum Raceway Base, 10 FT

Overview

The Middle Atlantic ALA3800B-10 is a 10-foot single-compartment aluminum raceway base from the ALA3800 Series, designed for organized, low-profile cable routing in AV, security, and IT infrastructure installations. At 3 in. high × 12 in. wide × 2.13 in. deep, it provides a clean raceway channel suitable for wall-mounted cable management in commercial environments. TAA compliance makes it a straightforward fit for government facilities, federally funded projects, and enterprise procurement programs that require domestic trade agreement sourcing. If you are specifying cable management for a secure government installation or a TAA-constrained procurement, the ALA3800B-10 satisfies that requirement from the base component up — often searched as ALA3800B 10.

Key Features

• 10-foot run in a single piece: A 10 FT base section reduces the number of splice joints needed in a long cable run, which matters when you want a finished, professional appearance on an exposed wall in a lobby or corridor.
• 12-inch channel width (30.5 cm): Wide enough to handle bundled multi-conductor runs — useful when routing both data and low-voltage power cabling side by side without exceeding fill capacity.
• 3-inch profile height (7.6 cm): A taller channel accommodates more conductors than slim-profile raceways, reducing the need to stage multiple stacked runs in high-density cable environments.
• 2.13-inch depth (5.4 cm): A relatively shallow footprint keeps the raceway close to the wall surface, minimizing protrusion in finished spaces such as reception areas or conference rooms.
• TAA Compliant: Verified TAA compliance on the ALA3800B-10 means this component qualifies for GSA schedule purchases and other federal procurement vehicles without a waiver — a hard requirement on many public-sector security and AV contracts.
• Aluminum construction (ALA Series): Aluminum provides a rigid, lightweight channel that holds its form under cable load without the creep or deformation that can affect plastic raceways in warm equipment rooms or direct-sun wall runs.

Integration & Compatibility

The ALA3800B-10 is part of Middle Atlantic's ALA3800 single-compartment raceway series. Pair it with matching ALA3800 series covers, couplers, and end caps to complete a finished raceway assembly. It is appropriate for cable management applications in Middle Atlantic raceway builds, including security camera wiring runs, AV distribution, and structured cabling in commercial spaces. For projects requiring TAA-compliant infrastructure throughout, confirm that covers and fittings used with this base are also ALA3800 series components sourced from the same product family.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the ALA3800B-10 TAA compliant?

A: Yes. The ALA3800B-10 is verified TAA compliant, making it eligible for GSA schedule and other federal procurement programs that require Trade Agreements Act conformance.

Q: What are the dimensions of the ALA3800B-10?

A: The ALA3800B-10 measures 3 in. (H) × 12 in. (W) × 2.13 in. (D) and is 10 feet in length.

Q: Is the ALA3800B-10 a base only, or does it include a cover?

A: The ALA3800B-10 is the raceway base only. Covers, couplers, and end caps are ordered separately from the ALA3800 series accessory lineup.

Q: What cable types can be run in the ALA3800B-10?

A: The 12-inch-wide, 3-inch-tall channel is suited for multi-conductor low-voltage runs including security camera cabling, ethernet, and AV distribution cables. Verify fill capacity against your specific conductor bundle before specifying.

Q: What series does the ALA3800B-10 belong to?

A: It is part of Middle Atlantic's ALA3800 Series single-compartment aluminum raceway line.
