FAQs
Begin by aligning the bracket with the B-Line channel so the upward-opening channel faces the intended mounting direction. Use the single 9/16 in mounting hole to secure the bracket with a compatible fastener, then attach channel nuts and hardware as specified in Eaton’s channel nuts and hardware catalogs. Verify alignment and tighten to the recommended torque to ensure a secure mounting for panels or equipment.
Key specs include 12 in product length, 3.5 in product height, 1.62 in product width, and a weight of 2.52 lb. Material is steel with an electro-plated finish, and it features one mounting hole of 9/16 in diameter. The type is a bracket with upward channel opening, optimized for B-Line channel systems.
The catalog indicates an electro-plated steel finish and lists Certifications as Not Applicable. While the electro-plated finish provides basic corrosion resistance, for outdoor or highly corrosive environments you should verify suitability or consider alternative coatings or finishes designed for exterior exposure and meet project-specific corrosion requirements.
Consult the Channel Nuts and Hardware Catalog Sections and the Eaton Specification Sheet for B293-12ZN. These resources provide mounting recommendations, compatible fasteners, and step-by-step installation guidance to ensure a reliable, repeatable assembly in B-Line channel systems.
