Eaton B52S-240GLV Strut Channel - 12 Gauge
Part Number: B52S-240GLV
Quick Summary
The Eaton B52S-240GLV Strut Channel provides a versatile mounting backbone for industrial racking, electrical, and mechanical support. Too often installers face corrosion concerns, inconsistent load ratings, and mismatched hardware that delay assembly and reduce safety margins. Certifications in this entry are listed as Not Applicable; consult the Eaton specification sheet for CE/UL/IP guidance as needed. By leveraging the B-Line system and standardizing on pre-galvanized steel, you gain predictable compatibility, faster install times, and reliable support across facilities. This combination translates to reduced field rework, simpler stocking, and scalable infrastructure for data centers, manufacturing lines, and industrial controls. Engineers can also reference the Dura-Green finish overview for corrosion resistance considerations.

Feature: Precision dimensions and material. The B52S-240GLV uses a 0.813 in height, 1.625 in width, and 12 gauge steel, delivering a consistent mounting path that mates with standard fittings. Business Impact: This dimensional stability translates to predictable load paths and reliable compatibility within Eaton's B-Line ecosystem. Application: It is well suited for panel backs, support beams, and equipment mounting in electrical rooms and manufacturing floors. Feature: Pre-galvanized finish. Business Impact: The pre-galvanized steel finish provides corrosion resistance, reducing maintenance cycles and extending service life in harsh environments. Application: Works in wash-down areas, outdoor installations, and areas with exposure to moisture or chemicals. Feature: Hole pattern S and channel type B52. Business Impact: The S hole pattern enables flexible mounting options and compatibility with KwikSplice splice plates, splicing hardware, and cross-members. Application: Accelerates assembly on data centers, machinery enclosures, and cable-management runs. Feature: 12 in length and 1.082 lb weight. Business Impact: The 12-inch standard length simplifies stocking and allows quick field cutting with common tools, reducing installation time. Application: Useful for modular rack systems, panel-to-panel supports, and quick substitutions in existing layouts. Feature: System compatibility. Business Impact: Being part of Eaton's B-Line strut channel family ensures long-term supply chain stability and uniform installation practices. Application: Ideal for facilities pursuing scalable infrastructure across multiple sites.

FAQs
This B-Line strut channel is designed to work with standard Eaton hardware and KwikSplice splice plates, streamlining alignment and reducing field drilling. The 12 in length, 0.813 in height, and 1.625 in width provide a predictable mounting matrix, while the S hole pattern offers flexible positioning. Use compatible fasteners and follow Eaton's installation recommendations to minimize rework and achieve consistent load distribution across panels, enclosures, and cable-management runs.
The 12 gauge steel delivers solid structural support with ample stiffness for typical electrical and mechanical mounting. The pre-galvanized finish provides inherent corrosion resistance, helping extend service life in moderate to harsh environments and reducing maintenance cycles. For outdoor or wash-down areas, verify coating compatibility with your exposure conditions using Eaton’s official specifications.
Yes. The B52S-240GLV is designed for panel mounting and general support throughout electrical rooms and industrial facilities. Its 12 in length and S hole pattern support versatile configurations, enabling efficient cable management and secure attachment of equipment. It integrates with Eaton B-Line components and KwikSplice accessories to create scalable, compliant installations.
The product entry lists certifications as Not Applicable. For projects requiring formal CE, UL, or IP ratings, consult the Eaton specification sheet (and local regulatory requirements) to verify current applicability of these standards to your selected finish and configuration. Always align with your project’s compliance plan and procurement guidelines.
Using Eaton B-Line strut channel standardizes components across sites, reducing stocking variety and procurement complexity. Faster installation, fewer field adjustments, and compatibility with KwikSplice and other B-Line hardware translate to lower labor costs and shorter project timelines. Over time, this supports predictable maintenance cycles and easier scalability for growing facilities.
