B-LINE 2236 HSNK – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size is the B-Line 2236 HSNK wiring trough?
The Eaton B-Line 2236 HSNK wireway is a 2.5 inch by 2.5 inch cross section running 36 inches long. That is the small end of the trough range, so it suits control panel gutters, sub-panel feeds, and tight runs where a 4x4 or 6x6 trough will not fit behind equipment. It weighs 6.879 lb.
2) Is this trough rated for outdoor or wet locations?
No. The 2236 HSNK is a NEMA 1 enclosure, which is general purpose indoor only. Mount it outdoors, in a washdown area, or anywhere dripping water or dust is expected and you need a NEMA 3R or 12 rated trough instead.
3) Does the B-Line 2236 HSNK wireway come with knockouts?
No knockouts. The body comes solid, so you punch your own conduit entries wherever the run requires. That is the point of the no-knockout version, but it means you need a knockout punch set on site; it is not a drop-in for a layout that assumed factory KOs.
4) How does the cover open on this wiring trough, and how is it held shut?
It is a hinged cover, so it swings open and stays with the trough instead of coming loose while you are pulling conductors overhead. In the closed position the cover is secured to the body with plated screws.
5) How does the 2236 HSNK trough mount to a wall or backpan?
Mounting is through holes in the trough body, so you fasten it directly to the wall, strut, or backpan with your own hardware. Anchors, screws, and any strut are supplied by the installer.
6) What gauge steel and what color is this Eaton B-Line trough?
16 gauge steel, finished in ANSI 61 gray. That gray is the standard switchgear and control panel shade, so a run of these will match existing enclosures and panels in most industrial and commercial rooms.
7) Does the B-Line 2236 HSNK wireway carry any third party certification?
It is certified to CSA C22.2, which matters for work being inspected in Canada as well as for spec packages that call for a CSA listed wireway.
8) Can I run several of these troughs together for a longer run?
Yes, wireway is built to be coupled end to end in sections, and each 2236 HSNK gives you 36 inches of run. For a continuous run you will need connectors, closure plates, and any elbows or tees separately; those are not included with the trough.
