B-LINE 4D22S-120YZN – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is yellow zinc chromate strut OK to use outdoors or in a wet area?
Yellow zinc chromate is a plated finish over steel intended for dry, protected interior work: mechanical rooms, electrical rooms, above ceilings, interior pipe and conduit racks. It is not the finish to run on a roof, in a parking structure, or in a washdown or coastal area. For those, specify hot dip galvanized or stainless strut instead.
2) Is 18 gauge strut channel heavy enough for hanging conduit and small pipe?
The 4D22S is formed from 18 gauge steel, which is the lighter of the common strut thicknesses. It is the usual pick for conduit runs, light trapeze hangers, cable tray supports and equipment mounting. For heavy pipe, large trapeze spans between widely spaced anchors, or seismic bracing, engineers normally call for 12 gauge strut rather than 18.
3) What does the S in 4D22S mean on this strut channel?
S is the hole pattern designation on the 4D22 channel type. It tells you the back of the channel is punched rather than solid, so you can through-bolt the strut to structure or gang two runs back to back without field drilling. If your drawing calls for a solid-back channel, the S pattern is not what you want.
4) Does this strut channel come with any hardware or fasteners?
No. The 4D22S-120YZN is the channel alone, a single 120 inch stick of 18 gauge steel. Channel nuts, threaded rod, end caps, post bases, conduit clamps and connecting fittings are all ordered separately, so count those into the takeoff before the job starts.
5) What is the exact part number to order this yellow zinc 10 foot strut?
Order Eaton B-Line part number 4D22S-120YZN. Reading it out: 4D22 channel type, S hole pattern, 120 inch length, YZN for the yellow zinc chromate finish. If you need a different length or a solid back, the prefix stays 4D22 and only the suffix changes.
6) Can this strut be cut to length on site?
Yes, 18 gauge steel channel cuts readily with a bandsaw, chop saw with a metal blade, or portable band saw off a 120 inch stick. Cutting exposes bare steel at the ends, so in the interior dry locations this yellow zinc chromate finish is meant for, touch up with a cold galvanizing or zinc-rich paint and cap the ends.
