Material and durability: The B308SS6 uses steel construction with stainless steel type 316, delivering enhanced corrosion resistance for harsh environments. The material choice translates into longer service life in overhead installations and cable tray runs, reducing replacement cycles and maintenance costs. This makes it well-suited for outdoor or wet facilities and industrial plants where reliability matters. Load rating and safety margin: With a 1500 lb load capacity and a safety factor of 5, these beam clamps provide ample margin for dynamic loads and unforeseen tugs from equipment. That margin translates to lower risk of clamp failure during peak operating conditions, enabling safer, more compliant installations in heavy-duty applications such as powered conveyors or HVAC duct supports. Thread/rod and screw compatibility: The product uses 1/2-13 thread/rod size and a 1/2-13 screws, plus a 7/8 in flange width. This common sizing streamlines replacement and compatibility with other B-Line components, reducing the need for adapters or custom parts and speeding up on-site assembly. Compact geometry and weight: At 2.5 in length, 2.5625 in height, and 0.467 in width, and weighing 1.33 lb, the clamp is compact enough for tight installations yet rugged enough to support ongoing service life. The lightweight form helps with handling during installation and reduces inventory burden without sacrificing strength. Certification and compatibility with strut systems: cULus Listed certification supports electrical safety compliance, while beam width of 0.875 in ensures a precise fit with standard strut channels. This alignment with Eaton's B-Line system means quicker system integration and fewer compatibility questions on job sites. System-level value: Setscrew included as standard, streamlining mounting without extra hardware. The combination of safety, compatibility, and ease of installation yields lower maintenance costs and faster project completion in industrial facilities.
