B-LINE BU-5-8-S-AS – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What beam flange thickness does the B-Line BU-5-8-S-AS beam fastener clamp onto?
The BU-5-8-S-AS beam clamp with anchor strap grips flanges from 0.31 inch up to 0.5 inch thick. Below 0.31 inch the strap won't hold tight, and anything over 1/2 inch won't seat, so measure the flange edge before ordering. Typical bar joist and light structural flanges fall in that window; heavier wide-flange beams usually do not.
2) Is this B-Line beam fastener UL listed for electrical support work?
Yes. The BU-5-8-S-AS beam fastener is UL/CUL listed, which is what an electrical inspector or an institutional MRO spec will ask for when you are hanging conduit, cable, or fixture support from structural steel.
3) Do I need to drill or weld the beam to install this fastener?
No drilling and no welding. It is a flange-mount clamp, so it attaches over the edge of the beam flange with the anchor strap holding it in place. That matters on jobs where modifying structural steel is not permitted.
4) What does the anchor strap on this beam clamp actually do?
The anchor strap wraps and secures the beam flange so the clamp cannot walk or drop off the steel under vibration or load shift. That is the difference between this and a plain set-screw beam clamp: the strap captures the flange rather than relying on the screw alone.
5) What is the exact part number to order for this B-Line beam fastener with anchor strap?
Order Eaton B-Line part number BU-5-8-S-AS. It ships as a single model with no finish or size options to specify, so the one number covers it.
