Feature Summary

• Constructed from 16-gauge Type 304 stainless steel for corrosion resistance
• Features continuously welded and ground smooth seams to prevent debris accumulation
• Includes a butt-hinged cover with screw clamps and oil-resistant gasket
• Designed as a feed-through section for enclosing wires and cables

Applications

• Enclosing wire and cable in wireway runs
• Applications regularly subjected to hosing down
• Outdoor and indoor industrial environments requiring NEMA 4X protection

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific material grade (Type 304) and gauge (16) against project requirements. Confirm that the 36-inch length and 4x4 inch cross-section match the design specifications. Ensure compatibility with adjacent Hoffman wireway fittings for seamless installation. Check for required UL 870 and CSA certifications for your region's compliance standards.

Selection Notes

Select this model when stainless steel construction is necessary for harsh or washdown environments. The 4x4 inch size accommodates moderate cable bundles. The feed-through design allows for continuous runs without intermediate junction boxes. Verify that the hinged cover access meets maintenance needs compared to removable cover options.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Hoffman Stainless Steel Series wireway line. It is designed to integrate with other fittings in the same series to create protected pathways for electrical wiring. The product serves as a structural element in cable management systems where environmental sealing and durability are critical.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other 4x4x36 inch stainless steel wireways from nVent Hoffman, such as the 784P67 model. Ensure replacement parts maintain the same NEMA 4X rating and material composition for equivalent performance.
