FAQs
To install B54H17/8-240GRN, align the 240 in length channel along the support run and position the H178 hole pattern to match fittings. Use compatible Eaton fasteners and clamps, then level the channel before securing. The 14 gauge steel provides rigidity without excessive weight, and the 0.81 in by 1.62 in profile fits standard strut hardware.
While the data sheet lists Not Applicable for Certifications, the B-Line strut channel uses a durable DURA GREEN finish on 14 gauge steel, offering corrosion resistance suitable for typical industrial environments. Avoid submersion or exposure to aggressive chemicals beyond spec; for harsh outdoor or splash-zone applications, consult Eaton for region-specific guidance and protective coatings.
Certifications for this exact model are listed as Not Applicable in the datasheet. If your project requires CE marking, SIL, or IP ratings, verify with Eaton's regional technical support or review the latest product datasheets and installation guides. In many controlled environments, system compliance is achieved through the overall installation rather than a single component.
What applications benefit most from B54H17/8-240GRN? It's well-suited for electrical distribution frames, cable tray mounting, and equipment supports in manufacturing, data centers, and industrial facilities. The 240 inch length minimizes splices, while the H178 hole pattern provides adjustable alignment for various fittings. Pair with KwikSplice accessories for fast, modular layouts.
From a maintenance and ROI perspective, the 14 gauge steel channel with DURA GREEN finish offers long service life, reducing replacement intervals. Its compatibility with Eaton B-Line accessories allows scalable systems, lowering total cost of ownership through standardized fasteners and common components. In projects with recurring rework, standardizing on this channel shortens commissioning and improves uptime.
