B-Line Eaton series imperial cable tray and ladder, 4" Height, 25.285" Length, 24" Width, Series 2-5 vertical outside bend, Aluminum, 60° Angle, 24" R

A vertical outside bend carries the tray run over an obstruction or up a change in elevation, with the tray bending away from the cable side. Eaton B-Line model 4A-24-60VO24 turns the run 60 degrees on a 24 inch radius, so it is used where the run has to climb or drop at that angle rather than make a flat horizontal turn. For a change in direction in the horizontal plane you need a horizontal elbow instead, and for a bend where the cables sit on the inside of the curve you need the vertical inside bend version.

Yes, if the straight sections are Eaton B-Line imperial series 2-5 aluminum tray at 24 inch width and 4 inch loading depth, this fitting matches. The 4A-24-60VO24 is built 24 inches wide with a 4 inch side rail height in aluminum, which is what lets it line up rail-to-rail with the adjoining straights. Mixing widths or rail depths across a run leaves the splice plates unable to seat.

Eaton B-Line part number 4A-24-60VO24. Reading the designation: 4A is the 4 inch aluminum rail, 24 is the tray width in inches, 60VO is the 60 degree vertical outside bend, and the trailing 24 is the bend radius in inches.

Allow for a fitting about 25.285 inches long overall, turning on a 24 inch radius. That radius is what drives the space claim: a 24 inch bend radius keeps the cable bending within limits for larger power conductors, but it also means the fitting sweeps well out from the theoretical corner. Lay it out from the point of intersection before you cut the adjoining straight sections.

Aluminum is what this 24 inch bend is made from, and the practical reason crews specify it is weight and corrosion behavior. This fitting weighs 8.864 lb, so a two-person crew can set a 24 inch wide bend overhead without rigging. Aluminum also holds up in damp and coastal environments without galvanizing. If the run needs higher load capacity per support span or you are matching an existing steel system, order the steel equivalent instead, since aluminum and steel tray are not interchangeable within a single run.

Order splice plates and connection hardware separately. The 4A-24-60VO24 is the bend section only, and each end of the fitting needs a splice connection to the adjoining straight tray. Count two splice sets per fitting and confirm they are the aluminum series 2-5 splice for a 4 inch rail so the bolt pattern lines up.
