B-LINE 44 HSX – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the B-Line 44 HSX cross fitting mate with 4 x 4 inch lay-in wireway?
Yes. The 44 HSX is sized for 4 inch by 4 inch wireway, with a 4 inch height and 4 inch width at each opening, and it is a lay-in style fitting, so it joins the same lay-in trough it is matched to. Overall the body runs 13.5 in on its length/depth dimension, which is the span you need to allow between the wireway sections on each leg.
2) Is this B-Line cross fitting rated for indoor use only?
The 44 HSX carries a NEMA 1 degree of protection, which is a general purpose indoor enclosure rating: it guards against incidental contact with the enclosed wiring and falling dirt, but it is not weatherproof or raintight. For outdoor runs, wash-down areas, or damp locations you need a NEMA 3R or 4 rated wireway and fittings instead.
3) Is the 44 HSX wireway cross UL Listed for an inspected commercial job?
Yes, it is UL Listed. That is the fitting itself, in steel with an ANSI 61 gray painted finish, so it can go into an inspected lay-in wireway run as a listed component.
4) When do I need a wireway cross instead of a tee or an elbow?
Use a cross when four wireway runs meet at one point, for example a main trough passing straight through a junction with branch troughs leaving both sides. A tee handles three legs, an elbow only two. The 44 HSX is the four way lay-in version for 4 x 4 wireway, so if your layout only has three legs you are buying a leg you will have to blank off.
5) What part number do I order for the B-Line 4 inch square lay-in wireway cross?
Order Eaton B-Line 44 HSX. That is the 4 x 4 inch, NEMA 1, steel, ANSI 61 gray painted lay-in cross fitting, and it is a single configuration, so there is no separate finish or size suffix to specify.
6) Can wire be laid into this cross without pulling it through?
Yes. It is a lay-in fitting, so the cover comes off and conductors drop into the trough and are dressed around the junction by hand instead of being pulled through a closed body. That is the main reason crews use lay-in wireway for large conductor counts at a four way intersection.
7) Does the gray finish on this cross match existing B-Line wireway already installed?
The finish is ANSI 61 gray paint, the standard gray used across Eaton B-Line wireway and enclosures, so it lines up with an existing ANSI 61 gray trough run rather than standing out. Body is painted steel.
8) How much does the 4 x 4 wireway cross weigh for overhead support planning?
About 5.454 lb for the fitting alone. Light enough that one person can set it, but at a four way junction you are landing four trough legs on the same point, so hang the supports to each side of the cross rather than relying on it to carry the adjoining runs.
