Eaton Specification Sheet - B72A-120GLV
Feature: 120 in product length delivers long-span capability, reducing field joints and accelerating layout completion. Business Impact: Fewer connection points lowers labor time and joint failure risk during service life. Application: data centers, manufacturing lines, and distribution bays where continuous channel runs are advantageous. Feature: 0.51 in height and 0.81 in width with 18 gauge steel. Business Impact: High stiffness-to-weight ratio supports heavy components without excessive weight. Application: wall-mounted frames and ceiling-mounted supports in mechanical rooms. Feature: Pre-galvanized steel finish. Business Impact: Inherent corrosion resistance for indoor environments, extending channel life and reducing maintenance. Application: harsh industrial environments where moisture contact is common. Feature: Weight of 5.74 lb enables manageable handling and reduces installation fatigue on long runs. Business Impact: Faster crew turnover and safer lifts during assembly. Application: field installations requiring manual handling of long channel spans. Feature: Catalog and datasheet availability (Strut Systems Full Catalog, mini-channel fittings catalog). Business Impact: Streamlines design decisions, reduces procurement lead times, and ensures compatibility. Application: engineering design reviews and procurement workflows. Feature: Channel type B72 supports modular fittings within the Eaton B-Line mini-channel ecosystem. Business Impact: Enables scalable, modular builds with predictable performance. Application: modular racking, panel mounting, and electrical distribution supports.

FAQs
The B72A-120GLV is part of Eaton’s B-Line mini-channel family and is designed to be used with standard mini-channel fittings and accessories listed in the Strut Systems Full Catalog and the mini-channel fittings catalog. This compatibility supports rapid assembly and scalable framing for electrical, mechanical, and support structures.
General specifications specify a length of 120 in, a height of 0.51 in, a width of 0.81 in, and an 18 gauge steel construction. The product weight is 5.74 lb, which provides a robust yet manageable channel for long-span applications without excessive handling effort.
The channel is finished in pre-galvanized steel, which offers corrosion resistance for indoor industrial environments. For outdoor or particularly aggressive conditions, additional coatings or protective measures may be required per your environmental specifications and engineering guidance.
Design resources are available via Eaton’s catalogs and datasheets: Strut Systems Full Catalog, mini-channel and fittings catalog, and the Eaton Specification Sheet for B72A-120GLV. These documents support accurate dimensioning, compatibility checks, and procurement planning.
Recommended use cases include long-span rack and panel mounting, service enclosures, and modular support frameworks within data centers and manufacturing environments. The combination of 120 in length, 18 gauge steel, and pre-galvanized finish facilitates scalable, cost-efficient upgrades with predictable performance.
