B-LINE 4A-09-06-HX12 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What tray widths does the B-Line 4A-09-06-HX12 horizontal cross connect?
The 4A-09-06-HX12 is a Series 2-5 horizontal cross built for 9 inch and 6 inch tray widths. The model number carries those widths: 09 for the 9 inch run and 06 for the branch legs. If your run and branches are both a different width, this is the wrong fitting.
2) What bend radius is the 4A-09-06-HX12 cable tray cross made to?
12 inch radius, which is what the HX12 in the part number refers to. Cable bend radius matters on the branch legs: pick the radius that satisfies the minimum bend radius of the largest cable turning the corner. If your cable spec calls for a larger radius, this fitting will not meet it.
3) Is this B-Line cross aluminum or steel, and does that matter for my run?
Aluminum. Match the fitting to the tray material on the run: aluminum fittings go with aluminum tray so you keep a consistent bonding path and avoid dissimilar-metal contact at the splice plates. If your installed tray is galvanized or stainless steel, order the matching steel fitting instead.
4) How much space do I need to fit the 4A-09-06-HX12 cross into an existing tray run?
Plan on a 39 inch overall length, 9 inch width and 4 inch height for the cross body. You will have to cut back the straight sections on both the run and the branches to open that footprint up before splicing it in, so measure the clear distance between supports first.
5) Do I need a horizontal cross or a horizontal tee for my cable tray layout?
A cross is for a four-way intersection, where a run continues straight through and branches leave both sides at the same point. If cable only departs one side, a tee is the fitting you want. The 4A-09-06-HX12 cross takes a 9 inch run with 6 inch branches on a 12 inch radius.
6) Do splice plates and hardware come with the B-Line 4A-09-06-HX12 cross?
The 4A-09-06-HX12 is supplied as the aluminum cross fitting. Splice plates, bolts and any hanger or trapeze support at the intersection are ordered separately, so add four sets of splices to your takeoff, one for each leg.
7) What is the exact part number to order this 9 inch by 6 inch aluminum tray cross?
Order Eaton B-Line 4A-09-06-HX12. Reading the number: 4 inch loading depth, 09 inch main tray width, 06 inch branch width, horizontal cross on a 12 inch radius, in aluminum.
8) How heavy is this cable tray cross for rigging and hanging?
15 pounds for the fitting itself. That is a one-person lift on a lift or scaffold, but the intersection still needs support close to each splice, since four tray sections land on it and the loaded cable weight concentrates there.
9) What certification does the B-Line 4A-09-06-HX12 cable tray cross carry?
CE marked. That is the certification on record for this Eaton B-Line Series 2-5 aluminum horizontal cross.
