B-LINE SB12606CW – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does a B-Line runway retaining post actually do on a cable runway?
The Eaton B-Line SB12606CW is a retaining post that bolts to the side of a cable runway and stands up above the rail, so you can stack cable higher than the runway stringer without it spilling over the edge. That is the whole point of it: increase the cable fill capacity of an existing runway rather than adding a second tier.
2) How tall is the B-Line SB12606CW retaining post, and how much extra cable stack does that give me?
Six inches of post height, with a footprint of 1.5 x .375 inches. That six inches is the added stacking depth above the runway rail, so a data center or telecom tech sizing a bundle can plan fill to the top of the post. Weight is .68 lb per post.
3) Does the retaining post need a bracket or clamp kit to attach to the runway?
No separate adapter bracket. The SB12606CW is a direct mount post, meaning it fastens straight to the runway stringer. Order hardware to suit your runway's existing hole pattern.
4) Will this post match the gray finish on my existing B-Line cable runway?
The finish is telco gray powder coat, the standard color B-Line uses across its runway line, so it blends with existing telco gray runway and ladder rack in the same room. Powder coat also gives it a painted, non-abrasive surface where cable rests against it.
5) Can I add these posts to a runway that is already loaded with cable?
Yes. Because it is a direct mount post rather than a part of the runway structure, it can be added to an installed runway as a retrofit when the existing fill is at the top of the rail and you need another six inches of stacking depth instead of a whole second tier.
6) How many retaining posts do I need for a run of cable runway?
Posts ship and are counted individually, one model SB12606CW per piece at .68 lb each. They are spaced along both stringers of the runway at intervals suited to your bundle weight and the runway's own hole spacing, so a long run takes several pairs. Count both sides of the runway when you order.
