Panduit T45RAWH Pan-Way T-45 Surface Raceway Right Angle Fitting

Overview

The Panduit T45RAWH is a right-angle fitting for the Pan-Way® T-45 surface raceway system, designed to redirect low-voltage, fiber optic, and power cabling at 90-degree wall corners without kinking conductors or exceeding minimum bend radius. Where a straight raceway run meets a wall corner, this fitting absorbs the direction change and keeps the installation looking deliberate rather than improvised. It ships individually (Package Qty: 1) in white PVC to match standard T-45 cover stock.

If you're building out camera drops, access control wiring, or structured cabling along perimeter walls, the T45RAWH is the corner hardware that holds the run together — literally. It's sold as a single fitting, so order quantities to match your corner count before the job starts.

Key Features

• Right-angle routing geometry: Directs cabling at a clean 90-degree turn, preserving minimum bend radius for fiber and preventing conductor stress at corners — important when the run includes Category cable where sharp bends degrade insertion loss performance.
• PVC construction: Rigid PVC holds its shape under the pressure of a fully-loaded raceway and resists the UV and chemical exposure typical of commercial corridor and perimeter wall environments. It won't soften or deform under normal HVAC operating temperatures.
• 4.52 in. × 1.16 in. profile (114.8 mm × 29.5 mm): Matches the T-45 raceway body's cross-section so the fitting integrates flush — no step, no gap, no visible seam where the fitting meets the straight sections on either side.
• Pan-Way® T-45 system compatibility: Engineered specifically for use with the T-45 cover, so fitting, cover, and raceway body all snap together using the same retention geometry. Mixing raceway families risks misaligned channels and covers that don't seat properly.
• UL Listed (E116129 / UL 95425) and CE Compliant: Meets the listing requirements that most AHJs require for surface raceway installations in commercial occupancies — skip the variance paperwork on compliant jobs.
• UL5A Listed: Specifically rated for non-metallic surface raceways under the UL5A standard, which governs the material and construction requirements for this product class. Relevant for inspection sign-off on low-voltage perimeter runs.
• White finish: Matches standard commercial interior trim. If your installation environment uses a different raceway color, verify against the T-45 color offerings — this SKU is white only.
• Single-unit packaging (Qty: 1), carton of 10: Order exactly the quantity you need per fitting location without breaking a case. For larger projects, the carton of 10 reduces per-unit handling cost at the distributor level.

Integration & Compatibility

The T45RAWH is purpose-built for the Panduit Pan-Way® T-45 surface raceway system. It pairs with the T-45 cover (sold separately) to complete the corner transition. The fitting body slides into the straight raceway sections on each leg of the corner, and the T-45 cover snaps over the top to close the channel.

Application scope per Panduit's documentation: low-voltage signal cabling, fiber optic runs, and power cabling routed along perimeter walls. This covers the typical security integrator's scope — IP camera drops, access control reader wiring, intercom cable, and structured Cat6 home-runs where exposed surface raceway is the finish method of choice.

For complete surface raceway cable management installations, you'll need the matching T-45 straight sections, inside corners, outside corners, end caps, and couplers depending on your run geometry. The right-angle fitting handles the flat-wall 90-degree turn specifically — it is not a substitute for inside-corner or outside-corner fittings designed for wall-to-wall transitions in three-dimensional space.

When planning a structured cabling surface raceway run, account for one T45RAWH per 90-degree flat-plane turn. Corner count drives fitting count — sketch the run geometry before ordering.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What raceway system is the T45RAWH compatible with?

A: The T45RAWH is designed specifically for the Panduit Pan-Way® T-45 surface raceway system. It is engineered to pair with the T-45 cover. It is not interchangeable with other Panduit raceway families (such as the Pan-Way LD or WD series), which use different channel geometries.

Q: What types of cabling can be routed through the T45RAWH?

A: Per Panduit's application documentation, the T-45 system — including this fitting — is designed to route low-voltage signal cabling, fiber optic cable, and power cabling along perimeter walls. Typical security integrator use cases include IP camera drops, access control reader wiring, and Cat6 structured cabling runs.

Q: Is the T45RAWH UL Listed?

A: Yes. The T45RAWH meets UL5A (non-metallic surface raceway standard), UL Listed 95425, and UL Listed E116129. It is also CE Compliant. These listings satisfy the requirements of most AHJs for commercial surface raceway installations.

Q: Does the T45RAWH come with a cover?

A: No. The package contains one right-angle fitting body only. The T-45 cover must be ordered separately. Confirm you have matching T-45 cover stock before closing out the job.

Q: What are the dimensions of the T45RAWH?

A: The fitting measures 4.52 inches (114.8 mm) wide by 1.16 inches (29.5 mm) high — matching the T-45 raceway body cross-section for a flush, seamless transition at the corner.

Q: Is the T45RAWH available in colors other than white?

A: This SKU (T45RAWH) is white only. Panduit offers the T-45 fitting family in additional colors under separate part numbers. Verify color availability against your specific finish requirement before ordering.

Ted Perry

The T45RAWH is one of those fittings that experienced integrators keep a handful of in the van — you don't always know your exact corner count until you're on-site pulling the run. At 4.52 in. wide and 1.16 in. tall, it matches the T-45 channel cross-section precisely, which means the cover sits flush and the finished run doesn't telegraph the corner location to anyone who walks the corridor after you're done.

Technical Highlights:

• UL5A / E116129 / UL 95425 listings: These aren't decorative. UL5A governs the material and construction requirements for non-metallic surface raceways — having all three listings means this fitting passes inspection in virtually every commercial occupancy without a variance request.
• PVC construction at 114.8 mm × 29.5 mm: Rigid PVC doesn't creep under load the way softer plastics do. A full T-45 channel loaded with Cat6, two fiber runs, and a power cable exerts real lateral pressure on corner fittings — PVC holds geometry where flexible materials let the cover gap open.
• Single-unit packaging: Sold as Qty 1 (carton of 10), so you can order to exact count per corner rather than buying a case and eating the surplus on a 3-corner job.

Deployment Considerations:

• The T45RAWH handles flat-plane 90-degree turns only — wall-to-wall (inside corner) and wall-to-ceiling (outside corner) transitions require different T-45 fittings. Map your run geometry before ordering; a misidentified corner type means a second trip to the supply house.
• The T-45 cover is NOT included in this package. One T45RAWH ships per package. Budget cover stock separately and verify you're ordering T-45 cover (not LD or WD cover) — the channel geometries are not interchangeable across Panduit raceway families.

For retrofit camera or access control cable runs in occupied commercial interiors — schools, medical offices, retail corridors — where exposed conduit is unacceptable but open cable is non-compliant, the T45RAWH and the T-45 system give you a clean, listed surface raceway installation that satisfies both the AHJ and the facilities manager.
