B-LINE 4A-36-06-HT12 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What tray widths does the B-Line 4A-36-06-HT12 horizontal reducing tee connect?
It joins a 36 inch wide run to a 6 inch wide branch. That is what makes it a reducing tee rather than a straight tee: the main line stays 36 inches and the takeoff drops to 6 inches. The fitting itself measures 33 inches long, 36 inches wide and 4 inches high.
2) Will this B-Line reducing tee match my 4 inch deep cable tray?
Yes, the 4A-36-06-HT12 is built at a 4 inch side rail height, so it lines up with 4 inch deep tray. If your run is 6 inch deep tray, this fitting will not rail-match and you need the equivalent fitting in that depth.
3) What bend radius does this B-Line horizontal tee use, and why does it matter for my cable pulls?
The fitting is a 12 inch radius (the HT12 in the model number). Radius is the number to check against your cable's minimum bending radius before you pull, and it also has to be consistent with the rest of the fittings in the run so elbows, tees and crosses lay out on the same centerlines.
4) Is the B-Line 4A-36-06-HT12 tee aluminum or steel?
Aluminum. It is part of the Eaton B-Line imperial aluminum cable tray line, which is the usual choice where weight matters or where a galvanized steel system would corrode. Match the fitting material to the tray and to your grounding and bonding approach.
5) Should I use a horizontal reducing tee or a straight tee plus a reducer?
If the branch you are taking off is 6 inches and the main run is 36 inches, the 4A-36-06-HT12 does both jobs in one piece: the reduction is built into the tee. Running a full-width 36 inch tee and then a separate reducer adds a joint, more splice plates and extra length to the layout. Use the separate reducer only when the reduction has to happen somewhere other than at the branch.
6) Do splice plates and hardware come with the B-Line 4A-36-06-HT12 tee?
Order the tee as the fitting itself, model 4A-36-06-HT12. Splice plates, connection hardware and any hangers or trapeze supports are separate line items, so add them per connection point when you build your take-off. A tee has three openings, so plan connection hardware for all three.
7) How much does this 36 inch cable tray reducing tee weigh for rigging and support spacing?
18.03 lb. Light enough for a two-man set on a lift, but the 36 inch main width means you still want a support close to each side of the fitting so the tee is not carrying load on the tray splices.
