B-LINE BA50D – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the B-Line BA50D acoustical tee fastener used for?
It is a heavy-duty electrical box hanger from the Eaton B-Line acoustical tee and t-bar fastener line. It attaches to the acoustical tee of a suspended ceiling grid so a box, fixture or similar load can be hung from the tee rather than from the ceiling tile. Order it by model BA50D.
2) Is the BA50D ceiling box hanger UL listed?
Yes, the BA50D carries a UL/CUL listing, so it is recognized in both US and Canadian jurisdictions. That matters on commercial and institutional jobs where an inspector wants a listed support for a box hung off ceiling grid.
3) Does a dedicated dropwire change what the BA50D can support?
Yes. The BA50D is rated at two levels: a lower capacity when it hangs from the acoustical tee alone, and a higher capacity when a dedicated dropwire is run to it. If you are hanging anything of consequence, plan on wiring the hanger back to structure with its own dropwire rather than relying on the grid.
4) Can I use the BA50D on a drywall ceiling instead of a suspended grid?
No. This is an acoustical tee fastener, so it depends on a t-bar grid member to clamp to. For a hard-lid drywall ceiling you need a different support method, such as a bar hanger or box mounted to the framing above.
5) What finish is the B-Line BA50D box hanger supplied in?
Pre-galvanized steel. That is a dry-interior finish, which suits typical above-ceiling plenum and office work but is not the choice for wet or corrosive locations.
