Feature → Business Impact → Application: The B297-36SS6 bracket uses stainless steel type 316 through a 6.25 in height, 36 in length, and 1.62 in width to deliver excellent corrosion resistance and structural integrity in demanding environments, reducing maintenance frequency and replacement costs for long-term reliability in control panels and electrical enclosures. This compatibility with Eaton B-Line strut systems enables faster installation with fewer custom parts, lowering total project time and labor costs on data centers, manufacturing floors, and industrial facilities. Application: Ideal for securing power, automation, and electrical assemblies where vibration control and durable mounting are essential for uptime. Feature → Business Impact → Application: One mounting hole pattern of 9/16 in diameter supports precise alignment and repeatable installations, improving consistency across assemblies and easing retrofits or expansions in existing enclosures. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 12.4 lb weight provides a solid, load-bearing bracket without excessive handling effort during crane or ladder-assisted installations, boosting installer efficiency and safety in overhead bracing scenarios. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Finish and material combination (steel with stainless steel 316) delivers a corrosion-resistant solution suitable for humid, coastal, or chemically aggressive environments, helping facilities meet maintenance schedules and reduce corrosion-related failures. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Cataloged under B-Line components with clear specifications and standard dimensions, the B297-36SS6 supports scalable systems planning and compatibility with strut fittings catalogs, ensuring procurement consistency across projects and suppliers.

FAQs
The B297-36SS6 is designed to fit Eaton B-Line strut systems with a 9/16 inch mounting hole pattern. Plan for compatible fasteners and ensure the bracket aligns with the strut channel to maintain proper load distribution. Use standard hand tools for quick mounting, and verify alignment prior to final tightening to prevent flex under load.
Key specs include a 36 inch length, 6.25 inch height, and 1.62 inch width, with a finish of stainless steel type 316 over steel. The bracket weighs 12.4 pounds and uses a single 9/16 inch mounting hole pattern, making it suitable for robust, high-load installations in electrical and automation assemblies.
Yes. The bracket uses stainless steel type 316, which offers superior corrosion resistance in damp, coastal, or chemically aggressive environments. This makes it a preferred choice for control panels, outdoor enclosures, and areas with humidity or splash exposure, helping extend service life and reduce maintenance.
Yes. You can access the Eaton Specification Sheet for B297-36SS6, plus the Strut Fittings Catalog Section for related components. These resources provide installation guidelines, dimensional tolerances, and compatibility notes to support procurement and field installation planning.
The 316 stainless finish resists corrosion, reducing downtime and maintenance needs in harsh environments. Its compatibility with standard strut systems speeds installation, lowering labor costs. The reliable mount reduces vibration-induced wear and supports long-term uptime, contributing to lower total cost of ownership in data centers and manufacturing facilities.
