B-LINE 4DWN228ZN – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What thread size does the B-Line 4DWN228ZN strut nut take?
The 4DWN228ZN takes 3/8-16 threaded rod or bolts. If your hanger rod is 1/2-13 or your bolts are 1/4-20, this is the wrong nut for the run.
2) Can I use this dove-tail nut in closed or back-to-back strut channel?
No. The 4DWN228ZN is specified for openside use only. It is a dove-tail slide-in nut, so it feeds into the open slot of the channel rather than being spun in through a closed profile. For closed or welded back-to-back strut, you need a different channel nut style.
3) Do I need a separate washer with the B-Line 4DWN228ZN?
No separate washer is needed. It is a combo nut washer, so the bearing surface is built into the nut itself. One piece, one part number to stock.
4) Is the 4DWN228ZN suitable for outdoor or damp locations?
It is electro-plated steel, which is a light zinc-type finish meant for dry indoor service. For exterior, wash-down, or corrosive areas, specify a hot-dip galvanized or stainless channel nut instead.
5) How does a dove-tail slide-in nut install compared with a spring nut?
A dove-tail nut like the 4DWN228ZN slides into the open side of the channel and wedges against the lips as the bolt is tightened, so there is no spring to compress and no tool needed to set it. A spring nut has to be pushed in and turned a quarter-turn, but it stays put on its own in overhead work. The dove-tail is faster on horizontal runs where you can feed it from the end or drop it in and position it.
