Eaton QBHW1060 - 60 A, 240 V, 1-Pole Bolt-On Circuit Breaker | AmpState

Meet the Eaton QBHW1060 — a dependable 60A, 240V, 1-pole bolt-on molded case circuit breaker from AmpState. Built to protect panelboards and load centers from overcurrent and short circuits, this breaker delivers consistent performance when reliability matters most.

• Secure bolt-on mounting: a rigid, vibration-resistant bus connection that stays tight even in environments with movement or vibration.
• Thermal-magnetic trip unit: combines precise thermal sensing with fast magnetic response for stable, repeatable protection against overloads and faults.
• OEM-compatible: designed to snap into matching OEM load centers and panelboards for a clean, code-compliant installation.
• Versatile application: ideal for residential panelboards, office/commercial panels, and light industrial electrical distributions.

The QBHW1060 is a single-pole (1P) device rated for 60A at 240V, making it a practical choice for protecting a high-current branch circuit without overcomplicating the panel layout. Its molded-case construction offers robust insulation and arc-quenching performance, while the bolt-on style simplifies replacement and service in both new installations and retrofit projects.
