FAQs
The B52SH-240SS4 is designed to be compatible with standard Eaton B-Line strut channel fittings and KwikSplice systems. Its SH hole pattern aligns with common fasteners used in B-Line accessories, enabling quick mounting, splicing, and reconfiguration. For planning, consult the Channel and Combinations Catalog Section and the KwikSplice installation sheets to select the right splice plates and supports for your enclosure or rack. This compatibility simplifies upgrades and reduces down-time during installation, especially in data centers and industrial control rooms.
Key dimensions include a 12 inch length, 0.813 inch channel height, and 1.625 inch channel width. The channel is manufactured from 12 gauge steel with a stainless steel type 304 finish. These dimensions establish mounting spacing, compatibility with standard accessories, and fit within conventional cabinet or enclosure footprints. When planning layouts, reference the product sheet B52SH-240SS4 for precise measurements and the UPC 799038489658.
Yes. The B52SH-240SS4 uses stainless steel type 304, which offers strong corrosion resistance in damp or mildly corrosive environments. While this provides durability for many outdoor and indoor industrial settings, plan for additional protection if exposed to highly aggressive chemicals or seawater spray. Regular inspection of stainless channel connections and fittings will help maintain long-term performance in challenging environments.
The product lists Certifications as Not Applicable in the data set, but you can access official documentation through Eaton’s downloads. This includes the Eaton Specification Sheet for B52SH-240SS4, installation guides, and catalog sections for channel configurations. For procurement and QA, reference the Channel and Combinations Catalog Section and the Strut Channel Identification Overview to ensure your installation aligns with internal standards and industry practices.
Expected maintenance is reduced due to the stainless steel 304 finish’s superior corrosion resistance, which lowers replacement and rework costs over the product life cycle. The 12 gauge channel provides structural integrity with predictable mounting, accelerating project timelines and minimizing field adjustments. Overall, customers benefit from longer service intervals, fewer spare parts, and faster upgrades in automation and electrical installations.
