Built to stay straight and stay connectedThe ATK series is an extruded aluminum track designed for use with A-Line track fixtures, and the ATK08-WH is the 8-foot nominal length in a white finish. The extrusion is made of 0.06" extruded aluminum with a 0.045" PVC bus bar support that holds 12 gauge round bus bars — that combination is what keeps a long
track lighting rail from sagging or twisting while keeping the electrical contacts firmly aligned. A polarity groove is located on the face of the track to indicate the location of the grounding conductor, so every section, joiner and power feed in a multi-piece run lines up the same way. Copper electrical conductors are concealed inside the thermo-plastic, low-profile track section, giving you a clean, discreet channel rather than exposed wiring.
Electrical and installation detailsThis is a single circuit power distribution system designed to supply lighting units flexibly. Single hot and neutral conductors are rated for a maximum capacity of 20 Amps (2400 watts per circuit) at 120V, which leaves plenty of headroom for a full row of LED heads on one run. The track is surface mounted using the supplied mounting hardware; suspended mounting is available with accessories ordered separately, such as hollow stem rods, suspension rod kits, aircraft cable sets with canopy or a sloped ceiling canopy kit. Power can be brought in several ways depending on your ceiling: live end power feed, wired end power feed with plug-in cord, center feed, monopoint feed, conduit feed, or 'L', 'I', 'T' and 'X' connectors to shape a run around a room. Single circuit current limiters with 1~14 amp options are also available when a job calls for them. Wiring should always be done by a qualified electrician in accordance with local Canadian codes.

Compatibility and system buildingThe track system is compatible with all A-Line and Juno style track fixtures, accessories and connectors, so you are not locked into a single head. Compatible LED track fixtures listed for this system include APOLLO LED, SORA LED, ATLAS, DELTA, FLEX, FOCUS, TEARDROP, DINE and the Flight family, along with heads such as the
8.5W LED track head ATF7509-DTW-38-WH and the
8.5W LED track head ATF7509-DTW-38-BK. Sections can be joined with an 'I' connector or a flexible connector to follow a hallway or wrap a corner, and a 12-foot run can be built from an 8-foot section plus a 4-foot section like the
ATK04-BN with a joiner. Matching finishes are offered in the same 8-foot length:
ATK08-BN in brushed nickel and
ATK08-SL in silver.
Where it earns its keep, and documentationEight feet is the sweet spot for a boutique's merchandise wall, a gallery hanging, a restaurant banquette, a reception desk, a home kitchen island or a long basement rec room — anywhere you need several aimable beams from one circuit and expect the layout to change. Contractors like it because one rail replaces multiple recessed cut-outs on a retrofit, and business owners like it because
commercial LED lighting can be re-aimed in seconds when the season's display changes. The full technical PDF (ATK08-WH Spec Sheet) is available in the Documentation tab, with the ordering guide, technical drawings and the complete list of accessories, connectors and power feeds to help you spec the whole run before you order.
