B-LINE 44 FTFGV – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size wireway does the B-Line 44 FTFGV telescoping fitting fit?
The Eaton B-Line 44 FTFGV telescoping fitting is built for 4 inch by 4 inch wireway, which is the size called out in its description. It will not adapt a 4x4 run to 6x6 or 8x8 trough; for those you need the matching fitting in that size.
2) Is the 44 FTFGV wireway fitting rated for outdoor or wet locations?
No. It is NEMA 1, which is general purpose indoor protection against incidental contact and falling dirt only. For a damp, wet, or washdown area you need a NEMA 3R or 4 rated fitting instead.
3) How much room do I need to allow for the B-Line 44 FTFGV telescoping fitting?
The fitting measures 12 in length/depth, 8.36 in width and 4.25 in height as shipped, and it weighs 3.662 lb. Allow for the full 12 inch dimension when laying out the gap it has to bridge, since the telescoping travel comes out of that length.
4) What is a telescoping fitting used for on a wireway run?
It closes the gap when two wireway sections cannot be pushed together, typically where a run is fixed at both ends between equipment, walls, or existing gutter. The 44 FTFGV slides to take up the difference instead of forcing you to cut and re-flange a section, and it keeps the enclosure continuous on a 4x4 run.
5) Can I drop conductors into the B-Line 44 FTFGV without pulling them through?
Yes. It is a lay-in fitting, so the cover comes off and the conductors are laid into the trough rather than fished. That is the usual reason a contractor picks lay-in wireway over conduit on a feeder or control run.
6) Is the B-Line 44 FTFGV UL Listed?
Yes, the 44 FTFGV telescoping fitting is UL Listed, which is what most inspectors and spec writers want to see on wireway and its fittings for a commercial or institutional job.
7) What is the 44 FTFGV wireway fitting made of, and will it hold up in a parking garage or plant?
Galvanized steel. That gives it reasonable corrosion resistance for indoor industrial and covered areas, but the fitting itself carries only a NEMA 1 rating, so it belongs in dry indoor locations rather than exposed exterior runs.
8) What part number do I order for a 4x4 galvanized telescoping wireway fitting from Eaton B-Line?
Order Eaton B-Line 44 FTFGV. That number covers the lay-in telescoping fitting in galvanized steel for 4x4 NEMA 1 wireway.
