F44LTA

Overview

The Hoffman Enclosures F44LTA is a 4-inch by 4-inch wireway tee fitting designed for lay-in systems. Constructed from 14-gauge mild steel, it features a top-opening configuration with a hinged cover. The unit is finished in ANSI 61 gray polyester powder coating and holds UL 870 and CSA approvals. It complies with NEMA Type 12 standards, providing protection against dust, falling dirt, and dripping non-corrosive liquids.

Feature Summary

• Top opening design allows access to all three branches of the wireway run along the same side
• Hinged cover facilitates easy installation and maintenance of internal wiring
• 14-gauge mild steel construction ensures structural durability
• ANSI 61 gray polyester powder coated finish provides corrosion resistance

Applications

• Connecting three wireway runs in electrical distribution systems
• Routing cables through industrial control panels
• Facilitating wire management in commercial building infrastructure
• Supporting lay-in wireway systems requiring top access

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specified application requires a top-opening tee fitting rather than a side or bottom opening variant. Confirm compatibility with existing 4x4 inch lay-in wireway components. Ensure the environment meets NEMA Type 12 requirements. Check for specific UL or CSA listing requirements relevant to the installation jurisdiction. Validate material gauge specifications against project documentation.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a tee junction is required with simultaneous access to all three legs from the top. The 4x4 inch dimensions must match the primary wireway size. Consider the 14-gauge steel thickness for mechanical strength. The gray finish should align with existing enclosure aesthetics. Verify that the hinged cover mechanism suits the maintenance frequency and accessibility constraints of the installation site.

Part Context

This fitting belongs to the Hoffman lay-in wireway system family, designed for modular electrical raceway installations. It complements straight sections, elbows, and other fittings within the same dimensional series. The product supports standardized cable management practices in industrial and commercial environments where organized wiring is critical for safety and maintenance efficiency.

Replacement Considerations

Substitute only with identical 4x4 inch top-opening tee fittings from compatible lay-in wireway systems. Ensure the replacement maintains the same 14-gauge steel construction and NEMA Type 12 rating. Verify dimensional accuracy to prevent misalignment during assembly. Confirm that any alternative part retains UL 870 and CSA certifications for regulatory compliance.
