B-LINE B304ZN – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the B-Line B304ZN beam clamp UL listed for electrical support?
It is cULus Listed, which covers it for use in the US and Canada. That is what an inspector on a commercial or institutional job looks for when conduit, cable tray, or fixture hanger rod is being supported off structural steel.
2) What size wrench or driver do I need to install a B-Line B304ZN beam clamp?
The clamp tightens with a 3/8 inch set screw against the beam flange, so bring a driver or wrench for that screw head plus whatever you are using on the 5/16"-18 rod. No drilling or welding into the steel is needed, the clamp grips the flange mechanically.
3) Is a zinc plated steel beam clamp OK outdoors or in a wet area?
The B304ZN is steel with an electro-plated zinc finish. That is a dry indoor finish, fine for mechanical rooms, ceilings, and conditioned interiors. For exterior, parking structures, pool rooms, or washdown areas, step up to a hot dip galvanized or stainless beam clamp instead.
4) Do I need a beam clamp or a threaded rod anchor for hanging conduit off structural steel?
If you are hanging from exposed structural steel, a beam clamp like the B304ZN is the usual answer, it grips the beam flange and gives you a 5/16"-18 tapped hole for the rod with no drilling into the structure. Drop-in or wedge anchors are for concrete decks. On bar joists you typically use a joist or angle clamp rather than a flange clamp.
5) What is the part number to reorder the zinc B-Line 5/16 beam clamp?
Order Eaton B-Line part B304ZN. The ZN suffix is the electro-plated zinc finish, which matters if you are matching what is already hung on the job.
