B-LINE BA12-30 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the B-Line BA12-30 used for?
The BA12-30 is an electrical box T-bar fastener, used to attach a box to the acoustical tee grid in a suspended ceiling. It spans 3 inches across the tee, so the box hangs off the grid member rather than off the ceiling tile.
2) Is the BA12-30 ceiling grid box fastener UL listed for use in a commercial building?
It is UL/CUL listed, which is the listing inspectors look for on box support hardware in commercial and institutional work. That covers both US and Canadian jobs.
3) How much room does the BA12-30 fastener take up above the ceiling?
The body measures 1 inch in height, 1 inch in width and 1 inch in length/depth, with a 3 inch span across the tee. In a tight plenum with ductwork above the grid, that compact footprint is what lets it sit over the tee without fouling anything.
4) Can I use a T-bar fastener like the BA12-30 to hang a light fixture in a drop ceiling?
No. With a 2 lb rated load, this fastener is for small electrical boxes on the acoustical tee, not for luminaires. Fixtures need a grid clip or bar hanger system rated for the fixture weight, plus independent support wires where the code requires them.
5) Is the B-Line BA12-30 sold as a single piece, and what part number do I order?
Order it as BA12-30, a single B-Line piece weighing .41 lb. There are no finish or size options to pick, so a fleet or MRO buyer standardizing on one grid fastener can order the same number every time.
