B-LINE BCH64-C2 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What beam flange thickness does the B-Line BCH64-C2 J-hook clamp fit?
The BCH64-C2 clamps onto beam flanges up to 1/2 inch thick. It is a cable-to-beam fastener, so it grips the flange of structural steel directly, no drilling or welding. If your flange runs thicker than 1/2 inch, this clamp will not seat and you need a larger-capacity beam clamp.
2) How much cable can a 4 inch B-Line BCH64 J-hook hold?
The hook is a 4 inch (64) size with a rated load capacity of 30 lb, carried on a single J-hook. That is the number to size your bundle against, not the visual fill of the hook. For heavier runs or more separated pathways you would step up to multiple hooks or a larger assembly.
3) Is this B-Line cable hook UL listed for low voltage and data cabling?
Yes. The BCH64-C2 is UL/CUL listed and is built as a datacomm and low voltage support fastener, which is what an inspector looks for when you are supporting Cat6, fiber, or other communications cable above a ceiling.
4) Can the hook be aimed a different direction after the clamp is on the beam?
It rotates a full 360 degrees, so you set the clamp on the flange first and then swing the hook to line up with the cable run. That matters when the beam does not run parallel to your pathway, or when you are pulling around a turn and need the hook angled off the structure.
5) Is a pre-galvanized steel J-hook OK for a damp or unconditioned space?
The BCH64-C2 is steel with a pre-galvanized finish, which suits indoor and plenum-type interior environments. Pre-galv is a mill coating, so it is not the choice for wet, corrosive, or exterior exposure. Outdoors or in a washdown area, specify a hot-dip galvanized or stainless support instead.
6) Do I need any extra hardware to install the B-Line BCH64-C2 on a beam?
No separate anchors, threaded rod, or fasteners are required. The clamp assembly mounts straight to the beam flange and the hook is part of the same piece. You only add hardware if you are mounting to something other than structural steel, in which case a different attachment style is needed.
7) How much space does the BCH64-C2 cable hook take up below the beam?
The assembly measures 9.215 in height, 4.55 in length/depth, and 2 in width, and weighs 1.048 lb. Use the 9.215 in figure when you are checking clearance between the beam and the ceiling grid or a duct below, since the hook hangs off the clamp rather than sitting flush.
8) What is the exact part number for the 4 inch B-Line beam-mount J-hook?
Order it as Eaton B-Line BCH64-C2. The 64 in the number is the 4 inch hook size, and the C2 designates the beam clamp attachment for flanges up to 1/2 inch.
