F44G72WK

Overview

The Hoffman Enclosures Inc. F44G72WK is a Type 1 indoor lay-in wireway straight section constructed from steel with a light gray finish. It measures 4 inches in height and width, with a length of 72 inches (1.83 meters). The unit features a hinged cover and includes knockouts for cable entry. Designed for enclosing wire and cable runs, the open-side construction allows for direct placement of conductors without pulling.

Feature Summary

• Lay-in design enables direct placement of wires and cables into the enclosure
• Hinged cover facilitates access to internal wiring components
• Open-side construction eliminates the need for pulling wires through tight spaces
• Includes knockouts for flexible cable entry points

Applications

• Enclosing wire and cable in indoor wireway runs
• Industrial electrical distribution systems requiring Type 1 protection
• Facility infrastructure where direct cable placement is preferred over pulling

Procurement Notes

Verify that the application environment meets Type 1 indoor requirements, as this component lacks environmental sealing. Confirm that the 4x4 inch cross-section accommodates the total cable bundle diameter. Ensure structural supports are compatible with the 72-inch span to prevent sagging. Check knockout configurations against specific conduit or cable entry needs before installation.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a straight run of enclosed cabling is required without the complexity of pulling wires through closed conduits. The 4x4 inch dimensions suit moderate cable volumes. The hinged cover allows for maintenance access. Consider adjacent sections and end caps to complete the wireway system layout effectively.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Hoffman F40 series of lay-in wireways. It serves as a linear segment within a larger cable management network. It pairs with other straight sections, elbows, and tees to form continuous pathways. The steel construction provides mechanical protection for internal wiring in standard industrial environments.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 4x4 inch by 72-inch Type 1 steel wireway sections with hinged covers. Verify that alternative models maintain the same lay-in functionality and knockout availability. Ensure material thickness and finish compatibility with existing system components.
