ASE24X12X8

Overview

The Hoffman Enclosures ASE24X12X8 is a Type 1 steel pull box designed for commercial and general-purpose applications. It features a gray finish and measures 24 inches in height, 12 inches in width, and 8 inches in depth. Constructed from 16-gauge steel with a body thickness of approximately 1.52 mm, the enclosure provides basic environmental protection for indoor use. The unit includes a flat, removable screw-cover type door secured by plated steel screws. Unique keyhole screw slots facilitate cover removal without specialized tools.

Feature Summary

• Constructed from 16-gauge steel to meet NEMA 1 standards
• Features a flat, removable screw-cover design with plated steel screws
• Incorporates unique keyhole screw slots for tool-free cover removal

Applications

• Commercial power distribution systems
• General purpose electrical installations
• Indoor flush installation environments

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific order corresponds to the standard knockouts configuration unless the NK variant is explicitly required. Confirm that the application environment remains strictly indoor, as the Type 1 rating does not support outdoor exposure or liquid ingress protection. Ensure mounting requirements align with the specified dimensions and weight capacity for safe installation.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a basic, cost-effective steel enclosure is needed for indoor commercial wiring. It is suitable for applications requiring simple access via a screw-on cover rather than a hinged door. Consider alternative models if higher ingress protection ratings or stainless steel construction are necessary for harsher environments.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Hoffman Type 1 Screw-Cover Pull Box series. These enclosures are standardized industrial products intended for general electrical housing needs. The series offers various dimensions to accommodate different wire bundle sizes while maintaining consistent construction materials and mounting styles across the product line.

Replacement Considerations

For applications requiring no pre-drilled holes, consider the ASE24X12X8NK variant. If a hinged door is preferred over a screw-on cover, explore the A-series or P2K-series enclosures from the same manufacturer.
