Eaton 6A-18-45HB36 Horizontal Bend - 36 in Radius
Part Number: 6A-18-45HB36
Quick Summary
The Eaton B-Line horizontal bend is a rugged aluminum elbow for routing cable trays in industrial enclosures. Designers often confront tight spaces, fitment tolerances, and long lead times for custom bends, which can slow project timelines. This model carries CSA, UL Classified, and CE certifications to support compliant installations across North America and Europe. With a 36 in radius aluminum construction, it delivers lightweight durability, reduces installation time, and lowers total system cost for wire management projects. Its compatibility with standard KwikSplice and channel systems simplifies field retrofits and future changes. This combination of certifications, lightweight aluminum, and proven geometry supports safer, faster, and cost-effective installations.

FAQs
Yes. The 6A-18-45HB36 is designed as a horizontal bend within the Eaton B-Line series, ensuring direct compatibility with aluminum B-Line cable tray sections and standard mounting channels. Its 37 in length and 6 in height with an 18 in width align with common B-Line layouts, simplifying field fabrication and reducing mismatch risk during retrofits.
The bend features a 36 in radius and a 45° angle, providing a smooth directional change with fewer fittings. The aluminum construction yields a lightweight component (12.4 lb) suitable for overhead and wall-mounted cable tray runs, while maintaining structural integrity for steady, long-term operation.
Absolutely. The 36 in radius 45° bend is well-suited for data centers, control rooms, and manufacturing floors where space constraints and consistent cable routing are critical. Its aluminum body reduces weight for overhead installations, and the 37 in length helps cover substantial routing distances without excessive fittings.
This Eaton B-Line bend carries CSA, UL Classified, and CE certifications, supporting regulatory compliance in North America and Europe. These certifications provide documented assurance for electrical safety, material quality, and product performance in industrial environments.
The Bend’s aluminum construction combined with its standardized dimensions reduces field labor and retrofit time, lowering installation costs. Fewer joints mean fewer potential failure points, easier inspections, and improved system reliability, delivering a favorable return on investment over the life of the cable tray system.
