B-Line Eaton series strut channel, .81" channel height, 120" channel length, 1.62" channel width, Steel, 12 Gauge, B52 channel type, DURA GREEN

B52 is the shallow profile. It measures .81 in in height with a 1.62 in width, so it is the half-height version of the standard 1-5/8 inch strut footprint. Use it where you need the same 1-5/8 in wide slot face and standard strut nuts and fittings, but do not have depth for a full-height channel. If your drawing calls for a deeper channel to carry longer spans, the full-height profile is the one to order instead.

Yes. The B52 runs a 1.62 in channel width, which is the standard 1-5/8 in strut face, so spring nuts, channel nuts and fittings sized for 1-5/8 in strut engage the lipped opening normally. The difference from full-height strut is depth only: at .81 in tall, the channel body is shallower, so check that any fitting that seats inside the channel back is intended for a shallow profile.

DURA GREEN is B-Line's green painted finish on the steel channel. It is a coated finish for general indoor and protected service, not a hot-dip galvanized or stainless product. For wet exterior, wash-down or corrosive environments, specify a galvanized or stainless channel instead. Note also that cutting the channel in the field exposes bare steel at the cut end, which should be touched up.

The B52 is rolled from 12 gauge steel, which is the standard structural gauge for strut channel used on conduit racks, trapeze hangers and equipment supports. Because this is the shallow .81 in profile rather than a full-height channel, its load capacity at a given span is lower than deep strut of the same gauge, so it suits shorter spans, wall-mounted runs and backing rather than long unsupported trapezes.

Order Eaton B-Line part number B52-120 GRN. That designation reads as B52 channel type, 120 in length, green finish, in 12 gauge steel. Quote that number when you are matching existing channel already installed on a job.

No. The B52-120 GRN is supplied as bare channel only, a 120 in steel stick in the green finish. Channel nuts, threaded rod, beam clamps, end caps, post bases and conduit clamps are all ordered separately, so build those into your takeoff.

The B52 is a single shallow channel, .81 in high and 1.62 in wide, supplied as a plain stick. It is not a pre-welded back-to-back or combination section. If your detail calls for a doubled profile, order the factory back-to-back channel rather than trying to build one from two B52 sticks in the field.
