B-LINE B409-12SS6 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) How much load will the B-Line B409-12SS6 strut bracket carry?
The B409-12SS6 single channel bracket is rated for a uniform load of 960 lbs. That is a uniform load figure, so a concentrated point load at the end of the 12 inch arm is a different case. Bracket weight itself is 2.32 lb.
2) Is the B409-12SS6 bracket suitable for outdoor, wash-down or coastal installations?
Yes. The B409-12SS6 is type 316 stainless steel, the grade specified where chlorides are present, so it suits coastal, marine, food processing and wash-down areas as well as general outdoor runs. Standard plain or pre-galvanized strut fittings do not hold up in those conditions.
3) Will a B409-12SS6 bracket fit 1-5/8 inch strut channel?
The B409-12SS6 is 1.62 inches wide, which is 1-5/8 inch nominal, the standard strut channel section. It is a single channel bracket, meaning it carries one run of channel or mounts a single channel arm off a surface.
4) What are the actual dimensions of the B409-12SS6 single channel bracket?
It measures 4.62 x 12 x 1.62 inches (height, length, width as listed). The 12 inch dimension is the arm projection off the wall or the mating strut, and the 1.62 inch width matches standard 1-5/8 inch strut channel.
5) Does the B409-12SS6 bracket come with mounting bolts or channel nuts?
The B409-12SS6 is supplied as the bracket alone. Anchors into the structure and the channel nuts and bolts that join it to the strut are ordered separately, and on a 316 stainless installation those fasteners should be stainless too so you do not set up galvanic corrosion at the joint.
6) What is the difference between the SS6 version of the B409-12 and the plain steel one?
The SS6 suffix on B409-12SS6 designates type 316 stainless. Same single channel bracket geometry, 12 inch arm, but the material change is what buys you corrosion service in salt air or chemical exposure. Indoors and dry, a plated or pre-galvanized B409-12 does the same mechanical job.
7) What is a single channel bracket used for on a strut system?
It cantilevers a length of strut off a wall, column or another channel run so you can hang conduit, cable tray, pipe or equipment away from the surface. The B409-12SS6 gives a 12 inch reach and takes 960 lbs uniformly distributed. For loads carried on two parallel channels, a double channel bracket is the fitting to look at instead.
