B306ZN

Quick Summary

Eaton B306USZN beam clamps provide secure mounting for electrical and lighting installations within strut channel systems. The main pain point is achieving reliable support without complex alignment or frequent retightening, especially in vibrating or high-load environments. With cULus Listed certification and a built-in safety factor of 5, these clamps meet stringent electrical and mechanical codes while delivering predictable performance. Beyond compliance, the 1100 lb load capacity and compatible rod and screw sizes support faster installations and reduced maintenance costs. This makes the B306USZN suitable for lighting and emergency-system applications where robust, code-compliant mounting is essential. Engineers value the product for predictable performance and easy sourcing through Eaton's B-Line family.

Feature: High load capacity in a compact clamp. Business Impact: The B306USZN delivers 1100 lb load capacity in a steel beam clamp, allowing robust suspensions without oversized hardware that drives costs. Application: Use in lighting and emergency-system runs within Eaton’s B-Line strut-channel systems, where dependable support is needed in tight spaces and under occasional vibration. Feature: Standard mounting interfaces for fast installs. Business Impact: With a 3/8”-16 rod size and a 1/2”-13 screw size, plus a 0.875 in beam width, this clamp aligns with common strut fittings, reducing fabrication and on-site adjustments. Application: Ideal for replacing older clamps or upgrading to a code-compliant beam clamp in new construction or retrofit projects. Feature: Safety factor and integrated setscrew. Business Impact: A built-in safety factor of 5 plus the included setscrew enhances vibration resistance and reduces maintenance cycles, delivering more predictable performance over the service life. Application: Use in high-load or dynamic installations where consistent retention is critical, such as variable-speed lighting fixtures or equipment suspensions. Feature: Code certification and compatibility. Business Impact: cULus Listed certification supports electrical-code compliance, simplifying approvals and supplier qualification for facilities with strict safety standards. Application: Suitable for institutional, commercial, and industrial projects requiring traceable compliance in strut-system installations. Feature: Durable steel construction and compact footprint. Business Impact: Steel construction ensures durability and reuse across multiple projects, while the 2.5 in length, 2.4375 in height, and 0.467 in width minimize space impact and simplify integration with existing components. Application: Excellent choice for beam clamps in light fixtures, electrical panels, and mechanical equipment in constrained spaces.
