Eaton B52A-120YZN Strut Channel - 12 Gauge
Part Number: B52A-120YZN
Quick Summary
The Eaton B52A-120YZN Strut Channel provides a robust mounting framework for vertical and horizontal support systems in industrial facilities. A common challenge is misaligned equipment and downtime caused by brittle or incompatible supports, which can derail production schedules. While this back-to-back welded channel uses 12 gauge steel finished in yellow zinc chromate, note that certifications such as CE, SIL, or IP ratings are not applicable to this part; system-level compliance should be verified in the overall design. This solution integrates with Eaton's B-Line accessories to simplify installation, improve reliability, and reduce lifecycle costs. In addition to core strength, the channel supports fast, scalable installations and provides a future-ready foundation for expanding electrical and mechanical infrastructure.
