B-LINE B494-12ZN – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How much weight can the B-Line B494-12ZN braced bracket hold?
The B494-12ZN braced single bracket is rated at 2,500 lbs load capacity. That rating assumes the bracket is properly bolted to strut and the bottom brace is in place, since the brace is what carries the moment out at the 12 inch arm rather than letting it all hang on the strut nuts.
2) Which channel does the bottom brace on the B494 bracket use?
On the B494-24 and smaller, including this 12 in version, the bottom brace is B42 channel; on B494 sizes larger than 24 the brace is B22. So when you order the 12 in bracket you are working with a B42 brace.
3) Is an electro-plated zinc strut bracket okay for outdoor or wet locations?
Electro-plated zinc is a light indoor-duty finish. The B494-12ZN is steel with an electro-plated zinc coating, which suits dry interior mechanical rooms, above-ceiling runs, and indoor electrical rooms. For exterior, parking structures, or corrosive/wash-down areas, spec a hot-dip galvanized or stainless version of the same bracket instead.
4) What are the actual dimensions of the B494-12ZN strut bracket?
It measures 12 in length/depth, 8.75 in height, and 1.62 in width, and weighs 3.92 lb. The 1.62 in width is the give-away that this is a single-channel bracket, so it lands on standard 1-5/8 in strut face without overhanging.
5) What is the difference between a braced bracket and a plain shelf bracket on strut?
A plain (unbraced) bracket is a single arm bolted to the strut face, and everything it carries tries to peel it off the channel. A braced bracket like the B494-12ZN adds a diagonal member down to a second strut connection, so the load is taken in compression through the brace. That is how it reaches a 2,500 lb rating at a 12 in projection. If you only need to hang a light conduit run or a small box, an unbraced bracket is simpler and cheaper; for pipe, cable tray, or equipment out on the arm, go braced.
6) What is the exact part number to order this 12 inch braced B-Line bracket?
Order it as B-Line B494-12ZN. The B494 is the braced single bracket series, the -12 is the 12 in arm length, and the ZN suffix is the electro-plated zinc finish. Larger arm lengths in the same series carry the same B494 prefix with a different length number.
