Product Overview

Aluminum
Aluminum channels, fittings and accessories offer
excellent corrosion resistance and are suitable for
many indoor and outdoor applications.
Aluminum’s
high strength to weight ratio greatly reduces
overall cost of installation through ease of
handling and cutting. Cooper B-Line’s channels
are extruded from aluminum alloy 6063-T6.
Closure strips are extruded from aluminum alloy
6063-T5. Fittings and accessories are made from
aluminum alloy 5052-H32.
Stainless Steel
Where corrosion problems persist and other
material and fittings are ineffective, we
recommend use of Cooper B-Line’s corrosion
resistant stainless steel channels and
accessories. Channels and fittings are available
in two types of stainless steel:
SS4-AISI Type 304
SS6-AISI Type 316
Fittings
Most fittings, as shown in this catalog, can be
supplied in aluminum or stainless steel.
Consult factory for possible minimum production
quantities and set-up charges.
Load Data
Aluminum
Channel’s approximate load data can be
determined by multiplying load data in the
steel channel section of this catalog by a
factor of 0.38.
Stainless Steel
Channel load data is the same as the data
in the steel channel section of this catalog.
Metric
Metric dimensions are shown in parentheses. Unless noted, all metric dimensions are in millimeters.
