B-LINE BRC51-C2 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the B-Line BRC51-C2 clip fit 12-2 MC cable?
The BRC51-C2 beam fastener holds cable between .43 in and .56 in outside diameter. Measure the jacket OD on your MC or AC whip rather than going by conductor size, since armor OD varies by manufacturer. Anything under .43 in will sit loose in the carrier, and anything over .56 in will not seat.
2) What beam flange thickness does this B-Line clip clamp onto?
It is a flange-mount fastener sized for a maximum mounting thickness of 0.5 in, so it clips onto beam flanges, bar joist angles, or similar steel edges up to a half inch thick. Thicker flanges need a different clip or a threaded-rod hanger arrangement.
3) Is this cable clip UL listed for an inspected commercial job?
The BRC51-C2 is UL/CUL listed, which is what an inspector looks for when MC or AC cable support is being reviewed on a commercial or institutional project. The CUL side covers Canadian work.
4) Do I need to drill or weld to install the BRC51-C2?
No drilling. The BRC51-C2 is a hammer-on style flange fastener for beams, so it clips directly to the steel edge up to 0.5 in thick and carries the MC/AC cable from there. That is the appeal for electrical rough-in in existing structures where you cannot put holes in the steel.
5) Can I use this B-Line beam clip to support EMT or rigid conduit?
It is built as an MC/AC cable carrier to beam fastener, and the carrier opening is dimensioned for cable from .43 in to .56 in OD. For EMT or rigid, use a conduit-specific beam clamp or strap instead, since conduit ODs do not fall in that range and the clip is not intended for it.
6) What size is the BRC51-C2 clip and how much does it weigh?
Roughly a 1 in cube, 1 in height by 1 in length by 1 in width, at .145 lb each. Small enough to stay clear of adjacent trades along a beam flange, and light enough that a full box is easy to carry up a lift.
