B-LINE 44 HST – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Will the B-Line 44 HST tee fit my 4x4 wireway run?
Yes, the Eaton B-Line 44 HST is sized for 4 inch by 4 inch wireway, with a stated product height of 4 in and length/depth of 4 in. It joins three legs of a 4x4 trough run at a tee. On a 6x6 or 8x8 system you need the tee sized to that trough, not this one.
2) Is this wireway tee rated for outdoor or wet locations?
No. The 44 HST tee carries a NEMA 1 degree of protection, which is indoor, general purpose only. It gives no protection against rain, dripping water, or washdown. For a rooftop, exterior wall, or damp mechanical space you need a NEMA 3R or 4 rated raintight wireway fitting instead.
3) What does lay-in construction mean on this B-Line tee, and does it make pulling easier?
Lay-in means the cover comes off and conductors drop into the trough from the side rather than being pulled through a closed raceway. On the 44 HST that matters at a branch point: you lay the wire into the tee, dress the turn by hand, then close the cover. It is the reason electricians use wireway instead of conduit on dense feeder and control runs.
4) What finish and material is this wireway tee, and will it match the rest of my trough?
Steel with an ANSI 61 gray painted finish. ANSI 61 gray is the standard gray used across most commercial wireway, panelboards, and enclosures, so this tee blends with an existing painted steel trough run rather than standing out. Painted steel is an indoor finish, consistent with its NEMA 1 rating.
5) Do I need a tee or a cross fitting for my wireway branch?
Use the 44 HST tee where a 4x4 wireway run splits three ways, a straight run with one branch off it. If wire has to leave in four directions from the same point, that is a cross fitting, not a tee. Both are part of the same 4x4 fitting family, so pick by how many legs land at the junction.
6) What part number do I order for the Eaton B-Line 4x4 lay-in wireway tee?
Order it as 44 HST from Eaton B-Line. The number reads directly: 44 for the 4 inch by 4 inch trough size, with the tee designation following. It ships as a single fitting in ANSI 61 gray.
