B-Line Eaton series Flex tray wire basket tray, Reended for exterior and corrosive applications, Hot-dip galvanized, Steel, 143.3" actual area inside

Yes. The FT6X24X10 HD is hot-dip galvanized steel and is recommended for exterior and corrosive applications. The hot-dip coating goes on after fabrication, so cut ends and welds are the one place the coating is broken; field cuts should be touched up with a zinc-rich cold galvanizing compound.

For indoor, dry, conditioned spaces (data rooms, office ceilings) pre-galvanized basket tray is the normal choice and costs less. Hot-dip galvanized, which is what the FT6X24X10 HD is, is the step up for outdoor runs, parking structures, unconditioned plants and corrosive process areas. Stainless is reserved for food, pharma and chemical environments where chlorides or wash-down chemistry attack zinc. If the run is exposed to weather, this hot-dip version is the correct spec.

The FT6X24X10 HD is CSA certified. That is the certification held on record for this tray; if your submittal calls for a specific cable tray classification beyond that, spec it against the CSA mark.

Order Eaton B-Line part number FT6X24X10 HD. The FT is the Flex Tray family, 6 is the depth in inches, 24 the width in inches, 10 the nominal stick length in feet, and HD the hot-dip galvanized finish. Getting the HD suffix on the purchase order is what separates it from the pre-galvanized version of the same size.

Flex tray is a wire basket system, so most direction changes are made in the field: you cut the wires with a basket tray cutter and bend the section to form elbows, tees and drops, then splice with the appropriate hardware. Splice and support hardware are separate items and are not part of the FT6X24X10 HD tray length. On a hot-dip run, remember every cut wire end needs cold-galvanizing touch-up to keep the corrosion protection intact.
