Eaton B494-12GRN Bracket - DURA GREEN Finish
Part Number: B494-12GRN
Quick Summary
The Eaton B-Line series bracket is a steel support accessory designed to brace and mount channel systems for electrical installations. It helps simplify mounting where bottom-brace B42 channel is required, reducing field assembly time and alignment errors. In many projects, compatibility and corrosion resistance are key pain points; this bracket pairs a robust steel profile with a DURA GREEN finish to withstand harsh environments. While the data marks certifications as Not Applicable, the specification emphasizes durable construction and precise dimensions that align with standard B-Line channel components. This combination supports reliable installations in data centers, industrial facilities, and commercial electrical rooms, while offering a footprint that complements both existing racks and new builds.

FAQs
Yes. The B494-12GRN is designed as a braced single bracket intended for use with the B-Line bottom-brace B42 channel, aligning with standard Eaton strut fittings. Proper installation relies on matching the bracket to the B42 channel profile and using compatible fasteners. This compatibility minimizes field modifications and ensures predictable load transfer in channel-based systems.
The bracket measures 12 inches in length, 8.75 inches in height, and 1.62 inches in width, with an approximate weight of 3.92 pounds. It is finished in DURA GREEN and constructed from steel, providing a robust mounting solution for bottom-brace B42 channel installations and standard B-Line channel components.
Start by confirming the B42 channel is compatible with the B-Line system. Position the bracket to align with the channel, then secure it using standard hardware appropriate for steel brackets and B-Line components. Ensure the bottom-brace channel is level and that the bracket supports the intended load. Verify all fasteners are tightened to spec to prevent movement and reduce rework.
The provided data marks Certifications as Not Applicable. In practice, project requirements vary by region and application. Engineers should verify whether CE, UL, ISO, IP ratings, or other standards apply to their installation and source any necessary compliance documentation from Eaton or local distributors.
The bracket offers compatibility with standard B-Line channel systems, corrosion resistance from the DURA GREEN finish, and a predictable fit that reduces installation time. These factors translate to lower labor costs, fewer field adjustments, reduced maintenance, and longer service life for channel-supported enclosures and racks in data centers and industrial environments.
