B-LINE B280FLSS6 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Which strut channel does the B-Line B280FLSS6 post base fit?
The B280FLSS6 post base is built for Eaton B-Line B22 channel. B22 is the deep 1-5/8 by 3-1/4 inch profile, so if the upright on your job is standard 1-5/8 by 1-5/8 channel, this base is the wrong footprint for it.
2) Is the B280FLSS6 strut post base suitable for outdoor or corrosive environments?
Yes. It is type 316 stainless, which is the marine and chemical grade of stainless used where chlorides, washdown, or coastal air would pit plain zinc-plated or even 304 fittings. That makes it a fit for rooftop, wastewater, food processing, and shoreline structural strut work.
3) What does "flush to side" mean on this B-Line rectangular post base?
The channel sits flush with one side edge of the base plate rather than centered on it. That lets you run the strut post tight against a wall, curb, or adjacent upright instead of losing a couple of inches of standoff. If you need the post centered over the anchor pattern, you want a centered post base instead.
4) What is the base plate footprint of the B280FLSS6 so I can lay out my anchors?
Published dimensions are 8 inches length/depth, 3 inches width, and 3.5 inches height. The 8 by 3 inch plate is what sits on the slab; plan your anchor layout inside that footprint and check edge distance to the slab edge before you drill.
5) Are anchors or bolts included with the B280FLSS6 post base?
The B280FLSS6 is supplied as the post base fitting alone at 3.12 lb. Concrete anchors and the channel nuts and bolts that fasten the B22 strut to the base are ordered separately, and on a 316 stainless base you should match the fasteners in 316 stainless too so you don't set up galvanic corrosion at the joint.
6) What part number do I order for the 316 stainless B22 flush-to-side post base?
Order Eaton B-Line B280FLSS6. The SS6 suffix is the type 316 stainless version of the B280 rectangular post base, so quote that full number rather than the bare B280 if the spec calls for marine-grade stainless.
