Procurement Notes

Verify the specific gauge of the mild steel construction required for your application, as options may include 16, 14, or 12 gauge steel or plated steel variants. Confirm that the standard knockouts meet your conduit requirements. Ensure compatibility with flush installation accessories if a recessed mount is planned. Check for any regional compliance certifications relevant to your facility's safety standards before finalizing the order.

Selection Notes

Select this model for indoor commercial or general industrial settings where NEMA Type 1 protection against falling objects is sufficient. It is suitable for use as a pull box or junction box. Consider the available knockout configurations to minimize field modifications. This enclosure is not rated for outdoor or washdown environments; choose higher NEMA ratings for such conditions.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Hoffman ASG series of Type 1 enclosures. These units are part of nVent HOFFMAN's standard line of mild steel boxes designed for basic environmental protection. They are widely used in commercial buildings and light industrial facilities for organizing electrical circuits and providing access points for wiring maintenance.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 8x8x6 inch dimensions and Type 1 rating. Verify material thickness (gauge) compatibility. Alternative brands offering NEMA Type 1 steel pull boxes with similar knockout patterns can be considered if Hoffman stock is unavailable.
