Eaton N224ZN – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Eaton B-Line N224ZN channel nut have a spring in it?
No spring. The N224ZN and its siblings are supplied as a nut without spring, so there is nothing holding the nut against the inside lip of the strut while you position it. That is fine for overhead work where you can reach both hands in, and it is the cheaper, lower-profile option, but for blind or one-hand installs in a deep run of channel a spring-loaded nut is the easier part to work with. Threading is 3/8"-16 either way.
2) What bolt or threaded rod size do I need for the Eaton N224ZN spring nut?
3/8"-16 UNC. That takes a 3/8 inch hex bolt, a 3/8 inch threaded rod, or 3/8 inch all-thread cut to length, all of them common trade stock. The nut itself is the only threaded part in the connection, so if you are hanging from rod you also need the rod, a hex nut and washer at the fixture end. Anything running 1/2"-13 rod will not thread into this one.
3) Is the electro-plated finish on the B-Line channel nut suitable for outdoor or wet locations?
Electro-plated steel is a light protective coating meant for dry interior service, panel rooms, data halls, mechanical spaces, and covered industrial areas. It is not the finish to specify for rooftops, exterior runs, parking structures, wash-down areas or corrosive process environments. For those, buy the hot-dip galvanized or stainless version of the channel nut and match the strut and rod to it, since mixing a plated nut into a galvanized support system is where corrosion starts.
4) Can I mix the 300 lb and 1500 lb Eaton channel nuts on the same strut run?
Yes, they are interchangeable in the channel. All three carry the same 3/8"-16 thread and the same 1.375 inch by 0.85 inch body, so any of them seats in the same strut and takes the same bolt. Only the load rating changes: 300 lbs on the N224ZN, 800 lbs on the N228ZN, 1500 lbs on the N225ZN. That lets you put the heavy-rated nut at the points carrying the weight and the standard one everywhere else without changing anything about the install.
5) How many Eaton B-Line channel nuts come in a pack?
These channel nuts are packed 100 to a box. For a contractor stocking a truck or a facility keeping strut hardware on the shelf, that is a working quantity rather than a job-lot count, and it is worth matching against the 3/8 inch bolts or rod you buy alongside so the counts do not drift apart.
6) What do I use these B-Line channel nuts for on an electrical job?
They are the connection point between strut and whatever you are hanging off it: panel and enclosure mounting, conduit and cable tray supports, trapeze hangers over equipment, and equipment bracing in plants and data halls. The nut goes in the channel, the 3/8 inch bolt or rod goes through the bracket into the nut. In retrofit work they are also how you pick up new load on strut that is already in the ceiling without drilling anything, since the nut simply turns into the existing run.
