B-LINE BFP42-120 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What are the actual dimensions of the B-Line BFP42-120 fiberglass strut channel?
The BFP42-120 fiberglass channel runs 120 inches long with a 1 inch channel height and a 1.62 inch channel width. That 1-5/8 inch nominal width is the standard strut profile width, so it lines up with the usual 1-5/8 inch strut footprint, while the 1 inch height is the shallow (half-height) depth rather than the deeper 1-5/8 inch section.
2) Will 1-5/8 inch strut nuts and fittings fit the B-Line BFP42-120 channel?
The channel is 1.62 inches wide, the standard 1-5/8 inch strut opening, so hardware sized for that profile engages the lips. Keep in mind the section is only 1 inch deep, so deep-profile nuts and any fitting that needs the full 1-5/8 inch interior depth will bottom out. For corrosive service, pair it with fiberglass or non-metallic fittings rather than plain steel, otherwise the hardware corrodes before the channel does.
3) Is fiberglass strut the right choice over steel strut for a corrosive or wet area?
Fiberglass is what you reach for when steel or even galvanized steel won't survive the environment: wash-down areas, water and waste treatment, coastal or chemical exposure. The BFP42-120 channel is molded from polyester resin, so there is nothing in it to rust. It is also non-conductive, which matters around electrical work. Where you have a dry interior run and want maximum load capacity per foot, steel strut is still the stronger section.
4) Which model number do I order for the 10 foot B-Line fiberglass strut?
Order model BFP42-120 from Eaton's B-Line series. That is the single part covering the 1 inch high by 1.62 inch wide polyester resin channel in the 120 inch length. There is one configuration, so there is no finish or length option to specify on the order.
5) Can the BFP42-120 fiberglass channel be cut to length on site?
Yes. A 120 inch stick is meant to be field-cut to the run you need. Fiberglass cuts with an abrasive or carbide blade rather than a metal-cutting blade, and because it is polyester resin there is no cut edge to prime or galvanize the way you would with steel strut. Wear respiratory and eye protection when cutting fiberglass.
