FAQs
The B52SH-120YZN uses a typical SH hole pattern compatible with standard fasteners for 12 gauge steel channels. For quickest assembly, pair with KwikSplice splice plates and Eaton B-Line accessories. Cut to length with metal shears, deburr edges, and maintain corrosion protection by reinstalling fasteners and finish afterward.
Load capacity depends on span, mounting method, and end-use. This channel is designed for light to mid-duty support. For critical loads, consult Eaton’s engineering resources or the official datasheet to determine appropriate spans, supports, and alternative gauges tailored to your installation.
Yes, the B52SH-120YZN strut channel is suitable for modular framing in ceiling or overhead applications when paired with compatible accessories. Ensure proper load distribution, environmental conditions, and finish requirements are met, and verify with the Eaton documentation for your specific ceiling installation parameters.
The provided data lists Certifications as Not Applicable for this exact item. For regulatory compliance, verify with Eaton datasheets or local regulatory requirements; similar B-Line configurations often reference CE marking and UL recognition depending on end-use and regional installation practices.
The 12 gauge steel channel with a yellow zinc chromate finish offers durable corrosion resistance, reducing replacement frequency. Modular design and compatibility with KwikSplice and B-Line components shorten installation time and future reconfiguration, delivering lower total cost of ownership over the system’s life cycle.
