Made from steel and finished in pre-galvanized coating, the B54B3-120GLV provides durable support with corrosion resistance suitable for indoor industrial environments. The 14 gauge construction yields a robust back-bone for mounting hardware while keeping overall weight manageable for field installation, reducing labor time. This combination supports long-term reliability in control panels, switchgear rooms, and equipment racks. Operators appreciate a product that maintains structural integrity through vibration and temperature swings common in factory floors. The dimensions are specified to deliver predictable performance across standard assemblies. The channel stands 0.81 inches tall and 1.62 inches wide, with a full 120 inch length that minimizes joints in long spans. At 29.1 pounds, it offers project-friendly heft without destabilizing the mount system. The 14 gauge steel provides a balanced mix of rigidity and formability, enabling clean, straight installations. Being part of the Eaton B-Line series, the B54B3-120GLV member accepts the same range of fittings, brackets, and accessories used across the line. This compatibility simplifies stocking and ensures consistent load paths for electrical and mechanical assemblies. The product is designed to work with standard installation accessories, including KwikSplice splice plates and common channel connectors, speeding up installation. This reduces engineering time and minimizes sourcing risk in large projects. Installation efficiency is improved by the standard dimensions and pre-finished surface that accepts additional coatings or labeling without compromising corrosion resistance. The long 120 inch runs cut fewer joints and reduce potential failure points. The system supports modular configurations, making future expansions or reconfiguration straightforward while preserving existing cable management and support routes. From an O&M perspective, fewer joints mean fewer inspection points and improved system longevity. Not applicable certifications require verification with Eaton for any regional regulatory needs. For maintenance, standardization helps reduce part SKUs and inventory costs, while the pre-galvanized finish minimizes repainting requirements over the product life.

FAQs
The B54B3-120GLV is designed to slot into Eaton’s B-Line ecosystem, utilizing the same channel connectors, brackets, and fittings used across the series. It works with standard KwikSplice splice plates and channel accessories, ensuring consistent load paths and minimizing adaptation work during panel builds. This compatibility reduces engineering time and simplifies procurement for multi-component installations.
Key specs include 120 in length, 0.81 in height, 1.62 in width, and 14 gauge steel. The channel weighs 29.1 lb, providing a solid yet manageable formation for mounting hardware and equipment. These metrics inform allowable load paths, span limits, and mounting redundancy calculations in control panels and enclosures.
Yes, the 14 gauge steel and pre-galvanized finish provide durable support for mid-range to high-load installations typical in manufacturing. Its 120 inch uninterrupted length minimizes joints, improving structural integrity. For heavy-duty racks, pair with compatible brackets and supports from the B-Line catalog to ensure a robust, code-compliant solution.
Certifications are listed as Not Applicable in the provided data. For projects requiring CE, SIL, or IP ratings, confirm with Eaton or the local distributor to verify current compliance status and any regional adaptations. Always document regulatory alignment in project specifications to avoid downstream approvals delays.
Standardization across the B-Line series reduces part variety, simplifying purchasing and inventory management. The pre-galvanized finish lowers maintenance by resisting corrosion in typical indoor environments, reducing repainting or touch-up costs over the system life. The 120 inch length minimizes field joints, lowering inspection points and improving uptime in critical facilities.
