B-LINE BB2-16 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What depth of electrical box does the Eaton B-Line BB2-16 bracket mount?
It mounts 1.5 inch, 2.13 inch, 2.5 inch and 2.8 inch deep boxes. That covers the usual run of shallow and standard-depth switch and receptacle boxes, so one bracket handles most of a rough-in rather than stocking a separate support per box depth.
2) Is the B-Line BB2-16 box support bracket UL listed for inspection?
The BB2-16 is UL/CUL listed, which is what an inspector or a spec-driven institutional job will be looking for on box support. The CUL portion covers Canadian installations as well.
3) Do I have to cut this bracket to length between studs?
No cutting. The bracket telescopes, so you extend it to whatever the stud bay measures between 11 and 18 inches and fasten it off. That is the point of the adjustable design: one part number for mixed framing instead of measuring and cutting fixed bars.
4) Is this bracket for metal studs or wood framing?
It is sized and specified for metal stud framing, with the adjustment range given as metal stud spacing of 11 to 18 inches. On commercial jobs with light-gauge steel studs it is the right support; wood-framed work typically gets a different fastening approach.
5) Will the BB2-16 bracket rust in a damp wall cavity?
The bracket is pre-galvanized steel, so it carries a zinc coating applied before forming. That is the normal finish for concealed box support inside interior framing. It is not a stainless or hot-dip product, so treat it as an interior, dry-to-damp concealed-location part.
6) What is the exact part number to order this Eaton B-Line telescoping box bracket?
Order it as B-Line BB2-16, an Eaton B-Line series box support fastener. That single model covers the full 11 to 18 inch stud spacing range and all four box depths, so there are no length or depth suffixes to specify.
