OVERVIEW
Overhead Trolleys from AKON are used around the country in both industrial, commercial and residential applications. The trolleys ride inside of an enclosed track made from one piece construction galvanized steel making them some of the strongest trolleys on the market. The roller wheels are made from either steel or nylon depending on the weight load you need to carry. AKON's overhead trolley systems consist of three basic components: trolleys, tracks, and the supports.
Applications
EV Charge Cord Cable Management
EV Charger Cable Retractors by AKON allow you to retract and manage your EV charge cords neatly above your car. This prevents trip hazards and gives your garage a more professional appearance. Akon is your one-stop shop for EV charge cord management. Choose from several different mounting styles to suit the structure that you are attaching to.
Overhead Ceiling Storage Rails
Using AKON garage ceiling track systems, you slide your items out of the way for storage. Then when they are needed again, you can roll them back to an open spot on the floor take them down. Common in garages, shops and workshops for moving all kinds of items around at the ceiling level.
Hang Industrial Curtains
Akon is a premier supplier of long lasting heavy duty industrial curtain track. From 10’ to 500’ we can provide you with a curtain track that will endure the rigors of heavy use and harsh environments. When using the roller hook trolley you can attach your industrial curtain or tarp and roll your curtains into place.
Hose Trolley Festoons | Greenhouses
Using the Akon Trolley, you can better organize your overhead water hoses. The hose trolley suspends the hoses over the floor and plants. This allows the hose to be stretched out as you walk along to perform watering duties. Keeping hoses above the work area reduces tripping accidents, frees up additional space, allows for quick watering and neat storage when not needed.
Air Hose Trolley System | Shops and Garages
The Akon Air Hose Trolley is the solution to disorganized and cluttered air hoses. This innovative trolley suspends the hoses overhead, keeping them off the floor and out of the way of your work areas. As you move around the production floor, the hose stretches out with you, providing easy access to the pressurized air you need. Not only does this system improve safety by reducing tripping hazards, but it also maximizes your workspace by freeing up valuable floor space. And when the workday is done, the trolley makes it simple to neatly store your hoses for the next time you need them.
Overhead Track & Trolley | Shops, Garages, Production
If you need to move product, tools, items or just about any object overhead then our overhead track and trolley could be your solution. By using our various styles for roller trolley carriers combined with our 16gauge galvanized steel track you can make your own trolley system. These are common with industrial customers who need to product from one area to another.
Trolleys
Description
Choose a trolley that best fits the item that you want to hang on the overhead trolley. Nylon wheels are for lighter load weights and steel wheels are for heavier load weights. The steel wheels have ball bearings for easy rolling. All hooks will freely swivel 360 degrees so that you can spin your item.
Load Capacity 40lbs Each
Load Capacity 75lbs Each
Load Capacity 125lbs Each
Trolley Attachment Mounts
Ceiling Mount Trolley
Choose this mounting style if you want your industrial curtain track to mount to the ceiling with only a few inches of open gap.
Wall Mount Trolley
This curtain track mount is designed for mounting the track next to a vertical wall or stud. This can be parallel to the wall, or perpendicular.
Chain or Cable Mount Trolley
Like the threaded rod, a chain supported curtain track is also good for spanning large distances. Both chain or cable can be used to hold up the track.
Threaded Rod Mount Trolley
If the distance between the anchor points above is higher than where you want the curtain track, then a threaded rod mount might work well. Steel rods support the track and span the distance between the track and the ceiling.
I-Beam Mount Trolley
When connecting to a truss, I-Beam or any other horizontal steel support this style of mount works best. Once connected, you simply tighten down the set screw.
Corners
Radius Corner
By using a 90 degree radius corner you can go around obstructions or make shapes. Just like the other overhead trolley components, the 24" radius corner quickly attaches and detaches as needed. Use 1 radius for an L-Shape design, 2 radius corners for a C-Shape and 4 radius corners for a complete enclosure.
Freestanding
Freestanding Trolley
If your application does not allow for a ceiling mounted trolley then you can utilize our freestanding trolley. This style of trolley is supported by uprights that anchor into the floor. Please note that the distance of these uprights will be determined by the load that you are looking to support. Freestanding style is made for lighter loads than the overhead ceiling mounted trolley. Approximately 75lbs per trolley and with a spacing of 4' per trolley.

Load Capacity
The AKON enclosed overhead trolley should always be properly secured to a strong structure to prevent it from falling and causing an injury. AKON does not provide guidance on fasteners for attaching the trolley track. The trolley track is not intended to hold a person. The safe load limit of the overhead trolley track and trolley is determined by 3 variables:
- Structure Load Capacity
- Your structure needs to be strong enough to hold the track plus the load
- Trolley Load Capacity
- (2) Nylon wheels are 40lb capacity, (2) Steel wheels are 75lb capacity, (4) steel wheels are 125lbs capacity
- Track Load Capacity
- The spacing of the track supports will determine the maximum load capacity. The closer the track supports are to each other, the more load it can hold. As a general rule, for maximum heavy load capacity you want the track supports every 3'. Lighter loads allows you to increase the track support spacing. Never space out your supports farther than 6'.
