Panduit PWBPF6X24EZ Wire Basket Tee Fitting
The Panduit PWBPF6X24EZ formed tee fitting solves cable pathway direction changes in wire basket installations. When your cable tray needs to branch at a 90-degree intersection, this pre-formed steel tee eliminates field fabrication and maintains continuous equipment grounding. Designed for 6-inch height by 24-inch width wire basket systems, it ships complete with protective liners and mounting hardware to keep cables safe from sharp edges at transition points. Data center build-outs, industrial control rooms, and commercial IT distribution spaces all require compliant cable support at tee junctions—this fitting delivers UL-classified protection without the labor cost of custom-bent tray sections.
Key Features
- Pre-formed 90° tee for 6"H x 24"W wire basket tray systems
- Electro zinc finish on steel construction for corrosion resistance
- Includes base liner, two side liners, and two brackets—complete assembly
- Two mounting hole locations for threaded rod suspension
- UL Classified for equipment grounding conductor use per NEC 392.3(C) and 392.7(B)
Steel construction with electro zinc plating provides the structural rigidity and corrosion resistance required in humid mechanical rooms and above-ceiling pathways. The formed tee arrives with all edge protection components pre-packaged: one base liner spans the junction floor to prevent cable abrasion during pulls, while two side liners protect bundle contact points at the vertical walls. Two mounting brackets integrate with the tee structure to tie into your existing wire basket rail system. The electro zinc coating meets ASTM B633 plating standards and provides a minimum 0.0002-inch zinc thickness for long-term oxidation resistance in indoor commercial environments.
Mount the tee fitting using the pre-punched holes and standard 3/8-inch threaded rod hung from structural deck or beam supports. The 24-inch leg dimension matches Panduit’s standard wire basket widths, allowing direct tie-in to straight runs without gap plates or transition adapters. Use this fitting when routing high-density Cat6A bundles, fiber trunk cables, or power distribution feeders through telecom rooms, network operation centers, or industrial automation spaces where cable loads exceed the capacity of ladder rack or J-hook pathways. The open wire mesh construction maintains ventilation around power cables and allows visual inspection of bundle fill ratios during audits.
UL Classified under the Cable Tray category (AVLV2) for suitability as an equipment grounding conductor in accordance with NEC Sections 392.3(C) and 392.7(B). This classification confirms the tee maintains electrical continuity through the cable support system, meeting grounding requirements for installations under the National Electrical Code. The fitting ships as a single unit with UPC 61305681662 for inventory tracking in multi-site deployments.
