B-LINE 6618-12WT – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size is the Eaton B-Line 6618-12WT wiring trough?
The 6618-12WT is a 6 x 6 x 18 inch trough: 6 inch height, 6 inch width, 18 inch length. That gives you a 6 by 6 inch cross section for pulling and splicing conductors, with 18 inches of run between end knockout faces. It weighs 12.655 lb, so one person can set it and a second can hold it while you anchor.
2) Is this B-Line wiring trough rated for a washdown or dusty area?
It is a NEMA 12 enclosure, which covers indoor protection against falling dirt, circulating dust, lint and dripping non-corrosive liquids. That suits it to plants, machine shops and dusty process areas. It is not a washdown or hosedown rating, so if the trough will be sprayed down or sits outdoors, you want a NEMA 4 or 4X trough instead. The seal comes from a seamless poured in-place gasket.
3) How do you mount this Eaton B-Line trough to a wall?
It has welded external mounting feet, so the trough bolts to the wall or strut through tabs outside the enclosure body. Nothing penetrates the wiring space, which is what keeps the NEMA 12 seal intact. Anchors and fasteners are sized to your substrate and are not supplied with the trough.
4) How does the cover open on the 6618-12WT trough, and does it stay attached?
Hinged cover, so it stays on the body when you open it and you are not juggling a loose lid on a ladder. Heavy-duty hinges on one side, screw clamps on the other hold it closed against the gasket. Plan your mounting so the hinge side has swing clearance.
5) Does this wiring trough carry a Canadian listing for a job in Canada?
The 6618-12WT is certified to CSA C22.2, so it can be specified on Canadian work as well as US installations.
6) Can I run a longer trough by joining two of these together?
Wiring troughs are built to be coupled end to end, and the 6618-12WT is an 18 inch section with a 6 x 6 inch cross section. Any section you couple to it has to match that 6 x 6 opening for the conductor path to line up. Connector kits and end plates are ordered separately from the trough body.
7) What part number do I order for the 6 x 6 x 18 B-Line NEMA 12 hinged trough?
Order Eaton B-Line 6618-12WT. The number reads as the box itself: 6 inch by 6 inch cross section, 18 inch length, 12WT for the NEMA 12 wiring trough family.
8) What gauge steel is the 6618-12WT wiring trough, and what is the finish?
14 gauge steel body, finished gray. That is a heavier wall than the 16 gauge commonly used on light-duty troughs, which matters when the trough carries a long conductor pull or gets bumped by equipment in a plant aisle.
