B-LINE BCH12-SC4 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Eaton B-Line BCH12-SC4 used for in a low voltage cable run?
The BCH12-SC4 is a drive pin fastener with an integral 3/4 inch cable hook, used to support datacomm and low voltage cable runs off structure. You fasten the pin into the substrate and drop the cable bundle into the hook, so the cable is carried independently rather than laid on ceiling grid or pipe.
2) How much cable will a 3/4 inch B-Line cable hook fastener actually hold?
The hook opening on the BCH12-SC4 is 3/4 inch, so it is sized for small bundles, a few Cat5e/Cat6 runs or a coax drop, not for a full trunk. If you are pulling a large bundle down a corridor, step up to a larger J-hook rather than trying to crowd this one; overfilling a hook that size deforms the bundle and hurts your cable bend radius.
3) Can I use this B-Line cable hook to support electrical conduit or MC cable?
No. The BCH12-SC4 is a datacomm and low voltage cable support, and the hook is only 3/4 inch. Conduit, EMT and power feeders need rated conduit hangers or straps sized to the raceway, not a low voltage cable hook. Keep it to communications and low voltage runs.
4) Is the B-Line BCH12-SC4 cable hook UL listed?
Yes. The BCH12-SC4 carries a UL/CUL listing, which is what most institutional and inspected commercial jobs want to see on cable support hardware.
5) How does a drive pin cable hook attach compared to a screw-on or beam clamp hook?
This one is a drive pin fastener: the pin is driven into the base material with a powder actuated or manual drive tool, so it goes in fast and in one action, which is why they get used by the hundred on ceiling and deck work. A screw-mount hook is the choice when you are fastening to wood blocking or want a removable connection, and a beam clamp style hook is what you use on structural steel flange where you cannot or should not drive into the member. Pick by what you are fastening to, not by the hook.
