Eaton B494-36GRN Braced Bracket - DURA GREEN Finish
Part Number: B494-36GRN
Quick Summary
Eaton B494-36GRN Braced Bracket is a steel support accessory designed for B-Line channel systems in electrical and facility installations. It addresses alignment issues and installation delays by delivering a rigid, easy-to-mount bracket designed for 36-inch spans. While not carrying SIL, CE, or IP ratings, the bracket follows Eaton’s strut-system specifications to ensure reliable compatibility with B42 bottom brace channel. This combination reduces field rework and speeds rack assembly, lowering labor costs. The DURA GREEN finish provides corrosion resistance for demanding environments, while the 11.25 in height and 1.62 in width optimize vertical and lateral rigidity. Use with standard strut fittings to streamline procurement and maintenance across building automation projects.

Eaton Specification Sheet - B494-36GRN
Braced single bracket design provides structural rigidity for 36-inch spans. Business impact: reduces deflection and improves mounting reliability for electrical enclosures, telecom racks, and equipment housings. Application: ideal for B-Line channel systems with bottom brace B42 channels, enabling safer, vibration-resistant installations in data centers and manufacturing floors. The steel construction with a DURA GREEN finish delivers durable corrosion resistance in challenging environments. Business impact: longer service life, lower maintenance costs, and fewer replacement brackets over the system lifecycle. Application: suitable for damp or dusty facilities, outdoor-rated enclosures near HVAC, and general facility infrastructure requiring robust support. Precise dimensions—11.25 in height, 36 in length, and 1.62 in width—and a 10.24 lb weight provide predictable fit and handling. Business impact: engineers can plan mounting locations and cable routing with confidence, reducing field rework and misalignment. Application: ideal for standard B42 channel bottom brace channels without modification. Seamless compatibility with Eaton strut systems and common channel nuts and hardware. Business impact: shorter lead times, simplified procurement, and fewer vendor items, while preserving interchangeability with existing components. Application: streamline installation in electrical rooms and data centers by using a single-brand, compatible bracket across the rack foundation. Comprehensive technical documentation and catalogs, including the Strut Fittings Catalog Section and Eaton specification sheet, support compliant installations. Business impact: mitigates compliance risk and accelerates project approvals, with clear part numbers, UPCs, and finish references for BOMs. Application: procurement and design teams gain confidence when specifying B494-36GRN for new builds or retrofits.

FAQs
This bracket is designed for Eaton B-Line channel systems and specifically pairs with Bottom brace B42 channels. Install using standard strut nuts and hardware, align the 36 inch length with the channel, and secure with compatible fasteners. The 11.25 inch height and 1.62 inch width maintain a stable footprint, reducing the need for field fabrication. Always verify load paths with your specific enclosure and hardware.
Exact load ratings aren’t published for the B494-36GRN, as with many strut accessories, because performance depends on the entire channel system and mounting hardware. The braced design combined with steel construction provides increased rigidity and reduced deflection for typical rack and enclosure supports. For critical applications, engineers should perform a site-specific analysis and confirm with your internal standards.
Best suited for electrical rooms, data centers, telecommunications closets, and industrial facilities that deploy B-Line channels with bottom braces. The 36 inch span supports mid-span mounting for server racks, power distribution panels, and cable tray assemblies, while the DURA GREEN finish helps match existing installations and provides corrosion resistance in moderate environments.
No dedicated certifications are listed for this bracket; the data indicates Not Applicable. It is designed to work with Eaton strut systems and standard channel hardware, and it meets typical industry standards for B-Line compatibility. Always verify your regulatory requirements and confirm compatibility with your certification programs.
The DURA GREEN finish on the B494-36GRN delivers corrosion resistance and easier long-term maintenance, reducing repainting and downtime. The steel construction offers durable support across many years, while the finish color helps with inventory management and easy identification during maintenance or upgrades. Beyond corrosion resistance, this finish reduces routine maintenance needs and helps preserve appearance, contributing to asset lifecycle planning and faster ROI for facilities teams.
