B-Line Eaton series imperial cable tray and ladder, 6" Height, 45.188" Length, 6" Width, Series 2-5 vertical inside bend, Aluminum, 90° Angle, 36" Rad

A vertical inside bend turns the tray run upward or downward with the cables riding on the inside of the curve, so the bend closes toward the cable side. Eaton B-Line part 6A-06-90VI36 makes that turn at 90 degrees on a 36 inch radius. If your run has to change elevation with the cables on the outside of the curve instead (for example cresting over an obstruction), that calls for a vertical outside bend, not this fitting.

Allow for a fitting that measures 45.188 inches on its length dimension, turning a full 90 degrees on a 36 inch radius. That large radius is what protects cable bend radius on the drop, but it eats a lot of vertical and horizontal room, so lay it out before you set your straight section supports. If the shaft is tight, a smaller radius bend is the fitting to look at.

It is aluminum. Aluminum tray is the usual choice where corrosion is a concern and where crews want a lighter section to handle overhead. This fitting weighs 17 pounds. Keep the whole run in one material family, since mixing aluminum fittings into a steel run creates dissimilar metal contact at every splice.

The 6A-06-90VI36 is supplied as the bend fitting itself. Splice plates, hardware, and any supports at the fitting are ordered separately, and you need a connection at each end where the bend meets straight tray. Order matching Series 2-5 aluminum splice hardware so the bolt pattern lines up.

Eaton B-Line 6A-06-90VI36. The number reads out as the 6 inch aluminum series, 6 inch width, 90 degree vertical inside, 36 inch radius. One catalog number covers this configuration, so there are no finish or length options to specify on it.

CE is the certification carried on the 6A-06-90VI36 aluminum vertical inside bend. That is the marking to reference if your submittal calls for it.
