B-LINE B12KO6-120GLV – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Is the B-Line B12 strut channel a deeper channel than standard 1-5/8 inch strut?
Yes. The B12 channel measures 2.43 inches in height by 1.62 inches wide, so it is the deeper back-to-back-style section rather than the common 1-5/8 by 1-5/8 shallow strut. The 1.62 inch width means standard 1-5/8 inch strut nuts, clamps and fittings still ride in the slot, but the extra depth gives you more span capacity on long runs. Check your fitting clearances if you are surface mounting tight to a wall, since the channel stands off further than a 1-5/8 deep section.
2) Is pre-galvanized strut channel OK for outdoor or wet locations?
Pre-galvanized is a mill-galvanized coating and it is intended for dry interior work, mechanical rooms, and covered areas. The cut ends and any field-cut holes are left as bare steel, so for exterior runs, parking garages, wash-down areas or corrosive environments you want a hot-dip galvanized or stainless channel instead. If you cut this one in an interior application, a cold-galvanizing touch-up on the cut end is standard practice.
3) Is the B-Line B12KO6-120GLV 12 gauge or the lighter 14 gauge strut?
It is 12 gauge steel, the heavier of the two common strut thicknesses. That is the weight you want for pipe racks, trapeze hangers carrying multiple conduits, and long unsupported spans; 14 gauge is the lighter-duty option for single small conduit runs and light fixture support. If a spec sheet calls for 12 gauge strut, this matches it.
4) What does the K06 hole pattern mean on this Eaton B-Line strut channel?
K06 is the knockout pattern punched in the back of the channel, and it is what lets you through-bolt the strut to a structure without drilling on site. If your drawing calls out a specific hole spacing or a solid-back channel, the K06 designation is the one to match at order time, since a plain-back or differently punched B12 will not line up with anchors set to the K06 layout.
5) What exact part number should I order for the 10 foot pre-galvanized B12 strut?
The manufacturer part number is B12KO6-120GLV from Eaton's B-Line series. That number carries the whole configuration: B12 channel type, K06 knockout pattern, 120 inch length, and GLV for the pre-galvanized finish. Give that number to a purchasing agent and there is nothing left to specify.
