B-LINE SB117BYZ – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does a B-Line SB117BYZ runway retaining post actually do on a cable runway?
The SB117BYZ is a cable retaining post, a vertical steel post that mounts to cable runway and keeps cable bundles from spilling off the side of the tray as they run down the row. It stands 9.5 inches tall, so it retains a fairly deep stack of cable above the runway stringer. Made of yellow zinc plated ASTM A569/A513 steel.
2) How tall is the B-Line SB117BYZ retaining post and how much cable will it hold back?
Height is 9.5 inches above the mounting point, with a footprint of 1.5 inches deep by 1.3125 inches wide. That 9.5 inch vertical is what sets how high you can stack cable before the bundle can roll over the post, so size your fill against it when you are laying out a data center or telecom row.
3) Will a yellow zinc plated retaining post hold up outdoors or in a damp room?
Yellow zinc plating on ASTM A569/A513 steel is a plated indoor finish. It suits conditioned spaces, telecom rooms, and data center runway. For wet, corrosive, or exterior runs you want a hot dip galvanized or stainless retaining post instead of this plated one.
4) What part number do I order for the B-Line yellow zinc runway retaining post?
Order Eaton B-Line part number SB117BYZ. That is the single catalog number for the yellow zinc cable retaining post, and there are no size or finish variations to specify on it.
5) How many retaining posts do I need per run of cable runway?
Posts are ordered individually, one post per mounting location, and each SB117BYZ weighs .35 lb. Spacing is a layout decision: most installers set them on both stringers at intervals along a run and closer together at turns, drops, and anywhere the bundle changes direction and wants to push sideways. Count your locations and order that quantity.
