B-Line Eaton series strut fiberglass channel and fittings, 2" channel height, 120" channel length, 1.62" channel width, Polyester resin

The BFP42A-120 fiberglass channel runs 120 inches long with a 2 inch channel height and 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 strut dimensioning contractors work to when laying out supports.

It is non-metallic. The BFP42A-120 channel is molded from polyester resin fiberglass, not steel, which is why it gets specified for corrosive or wet environments like water treatment plants, chemical rooms and coastal exteriors where galvanized strut rusts out. It is also non-conductive, which matters on electrical support runs.

Each 120 inch stick weighs 8.5 pounds. That is light enough for one person to carry and set on a lift, which is the main practical reason crews switch to fiberglass channel on long overhead trapeze runs instead of steel strut of the same length.

It is the deeper profile. Height is 2 inches rather than the 1-5/8 inch square section, with the same 1.62 inch width. If your drawing calls for a 1-5/8 x 1-5/8 channel, this is the taller version and will sit proud of that dimension, so check the mounting depth before ordering.

What ships is the channel itself, model BFP42A-120, a single 120 inch length of polyester resin fiberglass. Channel nuts, brackets, clamps, threaded rod and end caps are ordered separately. Plan the fitting count for your run before you place the order, and if you are installing in a corrosive area, match the fitting material to the reason you chose fiberglass in the first place.

Yes, that is its usual application. The BFP42A-120 is an electrical support product, and polyester resin fiberglass gives you a non-conductive, corrosion resistant channel for conduit racks, cable tray supports and equipment mounting. Where fiberglass differs from steel strut is load: it is not a drop-in substitute on heavy loading, so size your span and support spacing to the fiberglass load tables for the run you are building rather than reusing a steel strut spacing.

Order it as Eaton B-Line BFP42A-120. The BFP prefix is the fiberglass polyester channel line, and the -120 suffix is the 120 inch stick length. One model covers this size, so there is no finish or length option to specify separately.
