Eaton B494-30HDG Braced bracket - Hot-dipped galvanized
Part Number: B494-30HDG
Quick Summary
The Eaton B494-30HDG braced bracket provides sturdy support for B-Line strut installations in electrical and mechanical enclosures. When long runs must stay straight and resist vibration, many brackets allow sag or misalignment; this model is designed to minimize that risk with a robust, galvanized steel construction. Certifications are listed as Not Applicable, reflecting its standard-industrial design and lack of additional listings in this catalog entry. Designed for reliable, low-maintenance performance, it integrates seamlessly with Eaton’s B-Line system while delivering strong corrosion resistance. This bracket helps optimize lifecycle costs, offering compatibility with B42 bottom-channel configurations and facilitating quick, consistent installations in demanding environments.

FAQs
The B494-30HDG is designed for use with Eaton's B-Line strut system and bottom brace configurations, specifically compatible with the B42 channel. This ensures straightforward mounting, consistent alignment across spans, and reduced field adjustment time during installation.
The bracket measures 30 inches in length, 11.25 inches in height, and 1.62 inches in width, with a weight of 8.85 pounds. It is made from steel with a hot-dipped galvanized finish, offering robust support for mid-span runs in standard B-Line applications.
Yes. The hot-dipped galvanized steel construction provides enhanced corrosion resistance suitable for many outdoor or damp environments typical in industrial settings. For extreme exposure, verify additional environmental ratings with your project standards and Eaton documentation.
Certifications are listed as Not Applicable for this product entry. Rely on its steel construction and galvanization for standard B-Line compatibility in non-certified applications, and consult Eaton literature if your project requires formal third-party listings.
Key ROI drivers include the B42 bottom-brace compatibility which enables quicker, repeatable mounting, reducing field rework; corrosion resistance lowers maintenance costs; and the bracket’s rigid braced design minimizes deflection, improving system reliability and reducing service interruptions over the life of the installation.
