B-LINE FT4X24X10 HD – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can the B-Line FT4X24X10 HD wire basket tray be used outdoors or in a corrosive environment?
Yes. The FT4X24X10 HD flextray is hot-dipped galvanized steel and is recommended for exterior and corrosive applications, so it suits rooftop runs, wash-down areas, water treatment plants and coastal sites where a pre-galvanized or plain steel tray would rust out. It also carries CSA certification.
2) What are the actual dimensions of the FT4X24X10 HD flex tray section, and how much usable cable width do I get?
The tray is 24 inches wide and 4.38 inches high overall, with a stated 95.5 inch actual area inside the tray and a length/depth figure of 118.312 inches. It is a 4 inch deep flextray, so plan your fill against the 4 inch usable depth rather than the overall height, which includes the wire edge.
3) What exact part number do I order for the 4 inch deep, 24 inch wide hot-dip galvanized Eaton B-Line flex tray?
Order Eaton B-Line part number FT4X24X10 HD. In that designation FT is flextray, 4 is the 4 inch depth, 24 is the 24 inch width, and HD is the hot-dip galvanized finish. Pre-galvanized and stainless versions of the same profile carry different suffixes, so the HD is what you specify for the corrosion-resistant finish.
4) How much does one section of this 24 inch wide galvanized basket tray weigh for hanging and support calculations?
One FT4X24X10 HD section weighs 26.59 lb empty. Add that to your cable load when you size trapeze hangers, rod diameter and anchors. At 24 inches wide with a 4 inch depth it is a heavy backbone run, so support spacing should follow the cable load you are actually pulling.
5) Should I use wire basket tray or solid/ladder cable tray for a data and low voltage run?
Wire basket tray like the 4 inch deep FT4X24X10 HD is the usual choice for data, comms and low voltage bundles: the open mesh gives free air ventilation, lets you drop cable out anywhere along the run, and cuts and bends on site with a bolt cutter instead of needing fabricated fittings. Solid bottom tray is what you want when cables need physical shielding or EMI separation, and ladder tray suits long spans of large power feeders. For an outdoor or corrosive run, the hot-dip galvanized finish here is the deciding factor over pre-galvanized mesh.
6) Do I need to order splice connectors and hangers separately for B-Line flextray?
Yes. The FT4X24X10 HD is the tray section only. Splice washers or clips to join sections end to end, plus wall brackets, trapeze hangers, threaded rod and anchors, are separate items. Match the accessory finish to the tray: if you are running this outdoors or in a corrosive area, use hot-dip galvanized or stainless hardware so the fasteners do not fail before the tray does.
7) Is the B-Line FT4X24X10 HD approved for use on Canadian projects?
The tray is CSA certified, which is what an inspector on a Canadian job will look for. That is the only listing stated for it, so if your spec calls out an additional mark, confirm against the drawing.
8) Can this mesh tray be cut and bent on site to form elbows and tees?
Yes, that is the point of mesh tray. Flextray is cut with a bolt cutter or mesh cutter and formed into elbows, tees and drops in the field, so you are not waiting on fabricated fittings. One caution with the hot-dip galvanized version: every cut exposes bare steel, so brush cut ends with a cold galvanizing compound before you leave, otherwise the corrosion resistance you paid for starts failing at the cuts.
