FAQs
The B22A-240SS4 is designed to work with Eaton’s B-Line series strut channel fittings, nuts, brackets, and channel covers. For best results, use matching stainless steel hardware and the same finish to maintain corrosion resistance. Compatibility with standard channel nuts and brackets allows straightforward assemblies and upgrades.
Load capacity depends on span, attachment type, and supported equipment. The 12 gauge stainless steel type 304 construction provides high strength and excellent corrosion resistance, contributing to reliable performance in demanding environments. For precise spans and allowable loads, reference Eaton's engineering datasheets and your project’s safety factors.
Yes. The stainless steel type 304 finish offers superior corrosion resistance, making it well-suited for washdown areas, damp environments, and applications where exposure to moisture occurs. Ensure proper sealants and compatible hardware are used where needed to maximize longevity.
Catalog information lists Certifications as Not Applicable. For project-specific certification needs (CE, SIL, IP ratings, etc.), contact Eaton or your distributor to confirm and obtain documentation tailored to your application.
The combination of corrosion-resistant 304 stainless steel and a robust 12 gauge channel reduces maintenance frequency and replacement risk. Its compatibility with standard B-Line accessories simplifies future upgrades, lowers inventory variety, and minimizes downtime during system expansions or repairs, delivering favorable lifecycle cost outcomes.
