Seismic bracing cable kit system

Up to 50% faster to install, the seismic bracing cable kit system is designed to brace non-structural equipment and distribution systems to help minimize damage in a seismic event.
The B-Line series seismic bracing cable kit system is designed to brace non-structural equipment and distribution systems to help minimize damage in a seismic event.  It is ideal for new and retrofit mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) commercial applications.

Why use B-Line series seismic bracing cable kits?

When compared to other cable bracing methods, the B-Line series seismic bracing cable kit is up to 50% faster to install.  

  • Reduces installation time with cut-to-length SKUs for 10 and 20-foot length cable options
  • Color-coded tags provide visual verification of correct cable size
  • Quickly wraps around open web bar joist, no drilling required
  • Easy to use clamp requires no tools to install
  • Kits are tested by an independent lab and pre-engineered details stamped by a Professional Engineer

What’s included in the seismic bracing kit?

The kit includes the cable assembly in 1/8”, 3/16” and 3/32" sizes with attached eyelet and KwikWire clamp

To complete your seismic cable installation, use B-Line series two-hole open angle bracket (B154) or the seismic retrofit bracket (B650C). Eaton also offers a range of seismic anchors, TOLCO Fig. 98B rod stiffeners and vibration isolation hangers.
