B-LINE 6A-12-60VO36 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What is the Eaton B-Line 6A-12-60VO36 fitting used for in a cable tray run?
It is a Series 2-5 vertical outside bend, the fitting that carries a ladder tray run over an obstruction or up a wall break where the tray turns away from the cables. The bend is 60 degrees on a 36 inch radius, so the run changes elevation over that sweep rather than with a sharp break. It is built in aluminum and sized for 12 inch wide, 6 inch deep tray.
2) Is this an inside or an outside vertical bend, and how do I tell which one my run needs?
This one is an outside bend. Sight along the run: if the tray turns away from the cables, meaning the cables ride on the outside of the curve, the outside bend is correct. If the cables sit on the inside of the curve, such as where a run drops down off a wall and back in, you need the vertical inside bend in the same 12 inch width and 60 degree angle.
3) How much space does the 6A-12-60VO36 bend take up in the run?
Plan on 35.677 inches of length through the fitting, swept on a 36 inch radius at 60 degrees. That is the dimension to allow between the last straight section and whatever the run is bending over, so lay it out before hangers are set.
4) Is this cable tray bend aluminum or steel?
Aluminum. That keeps the weight down for overhead work and is the usual choice where steel tray would corrode, such as damp or coastal plants. The fitting weighs 11.7 lb, so a single installer can set it on the hangers.
5) Does the 36 inch radius on this bend matter for the cable I am pulling?
It does. The fitting sweeps on a 36 inch radius, so the cable follows that curve rather than a sharp corner. Check the minimum bend radius your cable manufacturer specifies against the 36 inch figure before you commit; large power conductors with a tight radius limit are the ones to watch.
6) What part number do I order for a 12 inch aluminum 60 degree vertical outside bend on a 36 inch radius?
Order Eaton B-Line 6A-12-60VO36. Read the number left to right and it describes itself: 6 inch rail, aluminum, 12 inch width, 60 degree vertical outside bend, 36 inch radius. Splice plates and hardware to join it to the adjacent straight sections are separate items on a tray order.
