Back-to-back welded channel construction provides superior rigidity and straight-line alignment, reducing field rework during install. This means faster assembly of racking, electrical trays, and conduit routes in harsh plant environments. Constructed from 12 gauge steel with a pre-galvanized finish, the channel resists corrosion in protected indoor environments and supports heavier loads. This combination helps facilities meet internal durability standards and lowers maintenance cycles for long-term reliability, especially in aging plants. With a precise 12 in length and a compact 1.625 in height and width, the channel fits tight spaces and standard mounting schemes. At about 2.324 lb per piece, it provides a robust backbone for multi-tier supports without overloading ceiling or wall structures. Compatibility with Eaton B-Line series fittings and the Channel and Combinations Catalog Section streamlines part selection and system design. This reduces SKU proliferation, improves bill of materials accuracy, and accelerates project approval for data centers, manufacturing lines, and switchgear installations. Access to specification sheets and finish guides supports rapid validation during procurement, design reviews, and commissioning. Even when customers need formal documentation for audits, Eaton’s official datasheets confirm material, finish, and gauge details, helping teams verify performance against project requirements.

FAQs

The B52A-240GLV is designed for Eaton B-Line series strut channel systems, compatible with standard channel fittings, clamps, and accessories from the Channel and Combinations Catalog Section. Its back-to-back welded construction provides stable support for rack and conduit runs, while the 12 gauge steel and pre-galvanized finish support heavy loads in indoor facility installations. Use with compatible nuts, bolts, and grommets to ensure proper load distribution and code-compliant assemblies.
The B52A-240GLV measures 12 inches in length, with a cross-section of 1.625 inches in height and 1.625 inches in width. It uses 12-gauge steel and weighs approximately 2.324 pounds per channel. The pre-galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance for indoor use and standardizes fitment with the B-Line channel family.
The product specifies a pre-galvanized steel finish, which offers corrosion resistance suitable for indoor or protected environments, not explicit outdoor ratings. For outdoor or highly corrosive environments, consider additional protective coatings or a Dura-Green finish option if available and confirm with Eaton datasheets. Check project requirements and code compliance before exposure.
Detailed specifications are available in Eaton's Channel and Combinations Catalog Section and the Eaton Specification Sheet for B52A-240GLV. The Dura-Green finish overview also provides finish-related guidance. Access the assets to validate the product name, catalog number, dimensions, gauge, finish, and compatibility with B-Line accessories for accurate BOMs.
Back-to-back welded B-Line strut channels are commonly used to create rigid support structures for electrical racks, conduit support, and mechanical assemblies in industrial facilities. The B52A-240GLV's 12 in length and 12 gauge steel provide a robust backbone for modular layouts, enabling quick rack mounting, efficient cable management, and scalable solutions for evolving infrastructure. Typical use cases include data centers, manufacturing lines, and switchgear installations.
