B-Line Eaton series Flextray wire basket tray, 2" X 8", Steel, Stainless steel type 316, Blind ends

This Eaton B-Line Flextray blind end is sized for a 2 inch deep by 8 inch wide wire basket tray run. The part itself is listed at 2 in height, 2 in length/depth and 8 in width, matching the tray cross section it caps. If your basket tray is a different depth or width, you need the blind end sized to that tray, not this one.

It is Type 316 stainless steel, which is the grade specified for wet, chemical, coastal and food-processing environments where standard steel or zinc plating corrodes. If you are running basket tray in a clean room, a car wash, a wastewater plant or a marine setting, 316 is the finish you want. For a dry indoor office or data center run, a plated or galvanized blind end is the usual choice.

A blind end closes off the cut end of a basket tray run. It covers the exposed wire ends so cable pulled into the tray is not dragged across sharp cut wire, and it gives the run a finished stop where it terminates at a wall, a piece of equipment, or a dead end. This one is the Eaton B-Line Flextray version for a 2 x 8 inch tray.

Yes on both counts. The FT BE 2X8 SS6 blind end carries a UL Classified listing and CSA compliance, which is what most electrical inspectors and institutional specs look for on cable tray accessories.

Order Eaton B-Line part FT BE 2X8 SS6. The SS6 suffix is the Type 316 stainless version; the same blind end exists in other B-Line finishes, so the suffix is what you confirm on the purchase order if the spec calls for 316.

About .68 lb each. That is light enough that adding blind ends at the terminations of a suspended Flextray run has effectively no bearing on your trapeze or threaded rod support spacing.

One per exposed tray end. Count every place a Flextray run stops without connecting to another tray, fitting, or enclosure, and order a blind end for each of those. Blind ends are sold as individual accessory pieces, not as a pair with the tray section.
