B-LINE BRC53-C442 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the B-Line BRC53-C442 clip fit 12/2 MC cable, and what cable sizes does it actually hold?
The BRC53-C442 cable carrier is built for MC/AC cable with an outside diameter between .56 and .69 inch. Measure the jacket OD on the cable you have rather than going by conductor size, since MC OD varies by manufacturer and by whether there is a ground. Anything under .56 inch will sit loose in the clip and anything over .69 inch will not seat.
2) How many MC cables can I run through one of these beam clips?
Up to 7 runs per clip, with a 50 lb total load capacity. If your bundle exceeds either the run count or that weight, add clips along the beam rather than overloading one.
3) Do I need to drill or weld the beam to install these cable clips?
No drilling, welding or anchors. The Eaton B-Line BRC53-C442 is a spring-steel flange clip that pushes onto the edge of the beam and grips it, so cable can be routed overhead with hand tools only. That is the main reason electricians use this style instead of a strut-and-strap assembly on structural steel.
4) Is this B-Line MC cable beam clip UL listed for inspection?
It is UL/CUL listed, which is what an inspector or a facilities spec will ask for on an MC/AC support. That covers both US and Canadian listing.
5) What does one BRC53-C442 clip weigh and how big is it?
Each clip measures 1 inch height by 1 inch length by 1 inch width and weighs .284 lb. Small enough that a bag of them rides in a pouch, and it tells you how much added dead load you are putting on the steel when you install a long run.
