FAQs
Begin by measuring the span and ensuring the channel length matches the installation. Cut to length using proper cutting tools, align the B52 channel with existing supports, and attach KwikSplice splice plates and accessories per the CTIS installation sheets. Use stainless fasteners compatible with 304 steel and verify all spacings meet project specifications to maintain torque and load ratings.
The channel features a height of 0.813 inches, width of 1.625 inches, and length of 12 inches per spec, with a weight of 1.149 pounds. Channel type is B52, finish is stainless steel type 304, and the material is steel with a 12 gauge thickness. UPC for reference is 799038489641.
Yes, the 304 stainless steel finish provides strong corrosion resistance suitable for many damp or mildly corrosive environments. However, the specification does not list an IP rating or weatherproofing, so confirm site conditions and regulatory requirements with the Eaton datasheet before outdoor use or washdown environments.
The data indicates Certifications: Not Applicable for this part. For regulatory alignment such as CE or SIL, consult the Eaton specification sheet and project-specific codes. Always verify with the official datasheet and applicable standards before critical installations.
Benefits include longer service life due to corrosion-resistant 304 stainless steel, reduced downtime from fewer replacements, and faster installations thanks to the standard B-Line system compatibility. The 12 in length and light 1.149 lb weight support modular, scalable layouts that enable quick upgrades and easier future reconfigurations in automation and electrical distribution.
