B-LINE 4A-18-45HB24 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What bend radius is the 4A-18-45HB24, and why does that matter for pulling cable?
It is a 24 inch radius bend. That radius sets the minimum bend you are imposing on the conductors going around the corner, so check it against the cable manufacturer's minimum bending radius for the largest cable in the run. If your cable needs a tighter turn than 24 inches allows, you are fine; if it needs more, you need a larger radius fitting.
2) How much room do I need to lay out a 45 degree horizontal bend in an 18 inch aluminum tray run?
Plan for the fitting's overall footprint of 28.5 inches in the length dimension, 18 inches wide, with a 4 inch rail height, turning through 45 degrees on a 24 inch radius. Lay that out on the ceiling grid before you set your trapeze hangers, because the support points on a bend rarely land where the straight-run spacing wants them.
3) Is this cable tray bend aluminum or steel, and will it hold up outdoors?
Aluminum. That is the usual reason to spec this over steel tray: it will not rust, it carries well in exterior and damp industrial runs, and it is light enough for one person to set. The fitting weighs 8.072 lb, which is why a single installer can hold it in place while bolting to the adjoining sections.
4) Is the B-Line 4A-18-45HB24 cable tray bend certified for a job that requires listed material?
It carries CSA certification. If your spec or inspector calls for CSA marked tray components, this 45 degree horizontal bend meets that. Keep the straights and other fittings in the run to the same series and certification so the whole system is consistent.
5) Do I need splice plates and hardware with the B-Line 45 degree horizontal bend?
Yes, plan on them. A bend is a tray section, not a coupling: it bolts to the straight runs at each end with splice plates and the matching hardware, and those are ordered separately. Order two sets per bend, one for each connection, in a series and material matched to the 18 inch Series 2-5 aluminum tray.
6) How do I identify the exact B-Line bend I need to reorder to match existing tray?
Order by the model number 4A-18-45HB24. Read it as 4 inch rail height, 18 inch width, 45 degree horizontal bend, 24 inch radius, in aluminum. If the existing fittings on the job carry a different width or radius in that string, match theirs rather than this one.
