B-LINE 4A-30-LR12 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What does the B-Line 4A-30-LR12 cable tray reducer actually do in a tray run?
It's a left-hand reducer fitting that steps a 30 inch wide tray down to a 12 inch wide tray, with the reduction taken on the left side so one side rail stays in line. The 4A-30-LR12 is 4 inches high, matching a 4 inch loading depth tray, and it measures 18.44 inches along the run. Use it where a main feeder tray drops to a smaller branch run.
2) Is the left reducer the same part as the right reducer, just flipped?
No, they are separate parts. On a left reducer the width comes off the left side of the run as you face the direction of travel, so the right side rail stays continuous. If the reduction has to happen on the opposite side, or centered, you need the right-hand or straight reducer instead. Getting the hand wrong throws the branch tray off its intended centerline.
3) What is the 12 inch radius on this B-Line reducer, and does it affect my cable bend radius compliance?
The fitting is built on a 12 inch radius, so the transition curve carries a 12 inch inside bend rather than a sharp corner. That matters because cable manufacturers specify a minimum bending radius, and running large conductors through a reducer with a tighter curve risks damaging insulation. Check your cable's stated minimum bend radius against the 12 inch figure before you spec it.
4) Is this cable tray reducer aluminum or steel, and how much does it weigh?
Aluminum, and it weighs 5.5 lb. That keeps it light for overhead work by a single installer and gives you corrosion resistance for damp or outdoor-adjacent runs where a painted steel fitting would need coating maintenance. If your run is galvanized steel tray, match the material rather than mixing, both for the bolted connection and to avoid dissimilar metal issues.
5) How much space do I need to leave in the run for the 30 to 12 inch reducer?
Allow 18.44 inches along the run for the fitting itself, and plan support on both sides of the transition. Overall the part measures 4 x 18.44 x 30 inches, the 30 inch figure being the wide end. Tight ceiling spaces and congested trapeze areas are where this length catches people out, so lay it out before cutting the straight sections.
6) Does the 4A-30-LR12 reducer come with splice plates and hardware?
The part supplied is the reducer fitting itself. Splice plates, connection hardware, and any hangers or trapeze supports for the transition are ordered separately and need to match the series and material of the tray you are joining to.
