B-Line Eaton series strut fittings and accessories, 3.93" Height, 5.43" Length, 1.68" Width, 1.56lbs, Steel, Eight hole double wing fitting, Hot-dippe

The B272HDG comes hot-dipped galvanized over steel, which is the finish specified for outdoor, damp, and corrosive environments such as rooftops, tunnels, wastewater plants, and exterior pipe racks. Plain or electro-galvanized fittings are the indoor-only option; if the strut run is outside or washed down, the HDG version is the one to order.

Order Eaton B-Line part B272HDG. The HDG suffix is the hot-dipped galvanized finish; B-Line uses different suffixes for other finishes, so the bare part root alone will not get you the galvanized piece.

It measures 3.93 in height, 5.43 in length/depth, and 1.68 in width, and weighs 1.56 lb. Those numbers matter when you are laying out a corner in a tight ceiling space or tallying hanger weight for a seismic or load calculation on a long strut run.

A double wing fitting is a right-angle bracket with two flanged wings, used to tie strut channel to strut channel or strut to structure where a flat plate fitting cannot carry the turn. The B272HDG version has eight holes, so you can bolt through multiple points on each leg for a stiffer, better-loaded connection than a two or four hole angle gives you.

No. The B272HDG is the steel fitting only. Strut nuts, spring nuts, bolts, and washers are ordered separately, so size them to your channel and pick the same hot-dipped galvanized finish if the connection is outdoors, otherwise you get galvanic and rust problems at the fastener.

Cutting or welding the B272HDG burns off the hot-dipped galvanized coating at the work area and leaves bare steel that will rust, which defeats the reason to buy the HDG version. If you must field-modify it, plan on a cold galvanizing repair coating over every cut edge and weld.
