B-LINE 4D22S-240GLV – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the 4D22S channel slotted or solid back?
It is the S hole pattern, B-Line's slotted back. That means you can bolt through the channel back at points along the run without drilling, which is what you want for wall or deck mounting and for back-to-back splices. If you need an unpunched solid back for maximum section strength, order a different hole pattern in the 4D22 channel type.
2) Can I use pre-galvanized strut channel outdoors or in a wet area?
The 4D22S-240GLV is steel with a pre-galvanized finish, which is the standard indoor and protected-application coating. It suits mechanical rooms, ceilings, plenums and conditioned interiors. For direct weather exposure, coastal air, wash-down or corrosive process areas, step up to a hot-dip galvanized or stainless channel instead; pre-galv cut ends are bare steel and will rust first in those environments.
3) Will standard 1-5/8 inch strut nuts and fittings fit the 4D22 channel?
No. The 4D22 is a 2.12 inch square 4Dimension profile, not the common 1-5/8 inch strut section, so fittings and channel nuts sized for 1-5/8 inch strut will not seat correctly in the opening. Order 4Dimension series hardware sized for the 4D22 channel type.
4) What gauge steel is the B-Line 4D22 strut and is it heavy enough for pipe racks?
18 gauge steel. That is the lighter end of the strut range, fitted to conduit runs, small pipe, cable tray drops, light trapeze hangers and equipment mounting. For heavy trapeze loads, large diameter pipe or long unsupported spans, specify a heavier gauge or a deeper channel section rather than stacking this one.
5) Does the 4D22S-240GLV strut come with nuts, bolts or brackets?
No, this is the bare channel only, one 240 inch stick of 18 gauge pre-galvanized steel. Channel nuts, spring nuts, end caps, closure strips, post bases, beam clamps, angle fittings and threaded rod all get ordered separately, and they need to be 4Dimension series parts to match the 4D22 profile.
6) What part number do I give my distributor for this Eaton strut?
The manufacturer part number is 4D22S-240GLV, Eaton B-Line series 4Dimension. Read it as 4D22 channel type, S slotted hole pattern, 240 inch length, GLV pre-galvanized finish.
7) Can I cut the 20 foot strut channel down on site?
Yes, the 4D22S is 18 gauge steel and cuts fine with a bandsaw or abrasive chop saw, which is normal practice when a 240 inch stick has to suit a shorter run. Because the finish is pre-galvanized, the cut face is bare steel, so touch it up with a cold galvanizing compound on anything but a dry conditioned interior.
