B-LINE BMS-6LYZN – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size is the B-Line BMS-6LYZN spring nut, and will it take metric threaded rod?
The BMS-6LYZN channel nut is tapped M6 x 1, so it mates with M6 metric threaded rod, hanger rod, or M6 bolts. It will not accept imperial 1/4-20 or 3/8-16 hardware, so if your rod stock is inch-series you need an inch-thread channel nut instead.
2) Is a spring nut the right choice, or should I use a plain channel nut without the spring?
A spring nut like the BMS-6LYZN carries a coil spring that holds the nut in position inside the strut while you line up the fitting and start the bolt, which is what you want for overhead work or anywhere you only have one free hand. A plain channel nut with no spring is cheaper and lower profile, but it drops out of the channel until the bolt is engaged, so it suits bench or accessible runs. Function is the same once tightened, it is purely a handling difference.
3) Will the yellow zinc chromate finish hold up outdoors or in a damp mechanical room?
Yellow zinc chromate on steel is a plated corrosion coating intended for dry or intermittently damp indoor service, mechanical rooms, ceiling spaces, and electrical rooms. For sustained exterior exposure, washdown, or corrosive process areas, step up to a hot dip galvanized or stainless channel nut instead.
4) Is a bolt or washer included with the BMS-6LYZN channel nut?
No. The BMS-6LYZN is the spring nut on its own, steel with a yellow zinc chromate finish. You supply the M6 x 1 bolt or threaded rod and any washer the connection calls for.
5) What is the exact part number to order for the M6 yellow zinc B-Line spring nut?
Order Eaton B-Line part number BMS-6LYZN. The suffix breaks down as M6 thread, L spring, yellow zinc chromate finish. Quote that MPN when matching existing hardware on a strut system already in place.
