B-LINE BFP42A-240 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Why use fiberglass strut instead of steel channel?
This B-Line channel is molded from polyester resin rather than steel, so it does not rust and is non-conductive. That is why it gets specified in wet areas, wash-down rooms, water and wastewater plants, coastal sites and chemical spaces where galvanized or painted steel strut corrodes out. Where you need maximum load capacity in a dry indoor mechanical room, steel strut is still the usual choice.
2) Will standard 1-5/8 inch strut fittings work with the B-Line BFP42A-240?
The channel measures 1.62 inches wide, the standard 1-5/8 inch strut profile, so hardware sized to that profile matches the opening. On corrosive or non-conductive installs where fiberglass was chosen in the first place, pair it with fiberglass or stainless fittings and hardware rather than plain steel, otherwise the fasteners corrode before the channel does.
3) Can the BFP42A-240 fiberglass channel be cut to length on site?
Yes. It ships as a 240 inch stick and is cut to the lengths your layout needs. Because it is a polyester resin composite rather than metal, cut with an abrasive or carbide blade, and wear respiratory and eye protection for the dust. Field-cut ends should be sealed per the manufacturer's practice to protect the exposed fibers.
