B-LINE B368ZN – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does a B-Line B368ZN four hole closed angle fitting actually do in a strut run?
The B368ZN is a 45 degree closed angle bracket that ties two lengths of strut channel together at a fixed 45 degree corner. It's a four hole fitting, so two holes bolt to one channel and two to the other, which spreads the load across four fasteners instead of pivoting on one. Closed angle means the bend is formed into the steel at a set angle, so it doesn't adjust the way a swivel or open angle connector does. Use it where the 45 degree geometry is already fixed on the drawing: knee braces, angled conduit racks, corner gussets on equipment frames.
2) How big is the B-Line B368ZN 45 degree strut angle, and will it fit in a tight rack corner?
Overall the fitting measures 4.37 x 5 x 1.62 inches and weighs .95 lb. The 1.62 inch dimension is what usually decides it, since that is the narrow face and it matches up against standard 1-5/8 inch strut channel. Lay the 4.37 and 5 inch legs out on your corner before you commit: the bracket needs that much clear run on both channels past the joint to land all four holes.
3) Do bolts and channel nuts come with the B368ZN angle fitting, or do I order those separately?
Hardware is separate. The B368ZN is the steel bracket only, so budget four channel nuts and four bolts per fitting to fill all four holes. Order the nuts and bolt length to suit your channel depth and whether you're going into 1-5/8 inch or shallower back-to-back strut. If you skip fasteners in two of the four holes, you've turned a four point connection into a hinge.
4) Is the electro-plated finish on the B368ZN strut angle OK for outdoor or wet locations?
Electro-plated zinc is a thin plated coating, and it's a dry-interior finish in practice. Mechanical rooms, ceiling spaces, electrical rooms, conditioned warehouse, all fine. For a roof, a parking structure, a wash-down bay, or anything coastal, go with a hot-dip galvanized or stainless version of the same 45 degree angle instead; the plating will rust at the cut edges and the bolt holes long before the steel body gives up.
5) Will the Eaton B-Line B368ZN fit standard 1-5/8 inch strut channel from another manufacturer?
The B368ZN is a B-Line series fitting sized against 1-5/8 inch strut, and its 1.62 inch width is that channel width. Strut channel and fittings on the 1-5/8 inch pattern are dimensionally interchangeable across the common brands, so it lands on 1-5/8 inch channel regardless of whose sticks are already on the job. Where it will not work is metric channel or the narrower 13/16 inch profiles, which use their own smaller fittings.
6) Should I use a 45 degree closed angle or an adjustable swivel connector on my strut brace?
Pick by whether the angle is fixed. The B368ZN holds 45 degrees and cannot be set to anything else, and that's the point: nothing shifts under load and no one has to check the angle at inspection. An adjustable or swivel fitting is what you want when the brace lands at an odd angle, when the two channels aren't square to each other, or when field conditions will decide the geometry. For a standard 45 degree knee brace off a horizontal trapeze, the fixed closed angle is the faster and stiffer joint.
7) What's the difference between a four hole and a two hole 45 degree strut angle?
Hole count is load path. With four holes, the B368ZN gets two fasteners into each channel, so the joint resists rotation as well as pull. A two hole angle with a single bolt per leg can rotate about those bolts and relies on friction at the channel teeth to stay put. On a brace carrying real load, or anywhere seismic bracing is part of the design, the four hole pattern is what you want. Two hole fittings are fine for light conduit or a non-structural stiffener.
8) I'm ordering strut fittings for a job. Is there anything to specify on the B-Line B368ZN besides quantity?
Only the quantity. B368ZN is a single configuration, a steel four hole closed 45 degree angle in the electro-plated finish, with no size, hand, or finish choice to call out. Count one per 45 degree joint and add your four bolts and channel nuts per fitting.
