FAQs
The B293-12HDG is designed for use with Eaton B-Line strut channel systems. Its channel opening upward and standard 9/16 inch mounting hole alignment ensure reliable fits with typical B-Line components like brackets, channel nuts, and hardware. This compatibility supports quick setup, consistent load paths, and scalable mounting across multiple panels or racks.
This bracket measures 12 inches in length, 3.5 inches in height, and 1.62 inches in width, with a weight of 2.52 pounds. It features a single 9/16 inch mounting hole. These specs help with accurate clearance calculations, load assessments, and budgeting for hardware and space in ceilings, racks, or wall-mounted enclosures.
Yes, the B293-12HDG uses hot-dipped galvanized steel, which provides enhanced corrosion resistance suitable for damp or outdoor environments. While there are no additional weatherproof ratings listed, the galvanization helps extend service life in challenging facilities, reducing maintenance intervals and replacement costs in exposed locations.
According to the data, Certifications are Not Applicable for this specific bracket. Nonetheless, its galvanic coating and steel construction align with common industry best practices for durable electrical support hardware, and it integrates smoothly with standard Eaton B-Line components to support compliant, repeatable installations.
Plan to use the upward-facing channel orientation for easy alignment with adjacent components. Start with the mounting hole first to establish a reference line, then secure the bracket with compatible hardware. Verify that the bracket sits flush against the channel and that loads are evenly distributed. Using pre-assembled Eaton fittings or quick-connect hardware can further cut install time.
