B-LINE FT4X18X10 WH – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size cable bundle will a B-Line FT4X18X10 WH flex tray carry?
The FT4X18X10 WH wire basket tray is an 18 inch wide by 4 inch deep flextray, and the usable fill area inside the tray is stated at 71.5 square inches. Overall tray height is 4.38 inches, so allow for that plus your hanger drop when you figure clearance above ceiling grid or below a slab.
2) How long is one stick of B-Line FT4X18X10 WH basket tray?
One length runs 118.312 inches, just under 10 feet, which is why the model number carries the X10. Plan your run in roughly 10 foot increments and order splice hardware separately, since it is not part of the tray itself.
3) Is the white finish on this Eaton B-Line flex tray painted or plated?
It is steel with a white powdercoat finish. That is the finish contractors pick for exposed runs in open-ceiling offices, retail, and classrooms where the tray is visible and needs to disappear against a white deck, rather than the bare galvanized look used above hard ceilings.
4) How much does a 10 foot section of this 18 inch basket tray weigh for hanger sizing?
Each section weighs 21.99 lb bare. Add your cable fill weight on top of that when you size trapeze hangers, threaded rod, and anchor spacing, because on a data cabling run the copper is usually the larger share of the load.
5) Can I cut and bend this B-Line flex tray on site to make turns and drops?
Yes. Flextray is a welded steel wire basket, and the point of the system is that you cut the wires with a bolt cutter or tray cutter and form your own 90s, tees, and vertical drops in the field instead of ordering factory fittings. Cut ends should be dressed and, on a white powdercoat run like this one, touched up to keep the finish consistent.
6) Should I use wire basket tray or solid ladder tray for a low voltage data run?
Wire basket like this 4 inch deep Flextray is the usual choice for structured cabling and fiber: it is open on all sides so cable can drop out anywhere along the run, it ventilates the bundle, and it is formed in the field. Ladder and solid bottom tray are the better call for heavy power feeders, long unsupported spans, or where you need a solid bottom to protect cable from falling debris.
7) What part number do I give my distributor for the 18 inch wide, 4 inch deep white B-Line basket tray?
Order it as Eaton B-Line Flextray FT4X18X10 WH. The number reads out as 4 inch depth, 18 inch width, 10 foot length, WH for the white powdercoat finish.
8) Does this Eaton B-Line white flex tray carry any listing or certification mark?
The FT4X18X10 WH is CE marked. Confirm with your electrical inspector which grounding and bonding provisions your jurisdiction wants on a metallic basket tray run.
