Feature Summary

• Constructed from 304 stainless steel for corrosion resistance
• Seams are continuously welded and ground smooth
• Includes oil-resistant gasket and adhesive for sealing
• Features captivated stainless steel cover screws

Applications

• Outdoor wire and cable distribution protection
• Industrial junction and termination points
• Corrosive environment cable management
• Indoor-outdoor wiring trough systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific gauge requirements against project specifications, noting the body uses 16-gauge material while the cover utilizes 14-gauge stainless steel. Confirm that the No. 2B finish meets aesthetic or hygiene standards for the intended installation site. Ensure compatibility with existing mounting hardware for the screw-cover design.

Selection Notes

Select this model when high corrosion resistance is required for both indoor and outdoor applications. The Type 4X rating ensures protection against windblown dust, rain, sleet, snow, and hose-directed water. Consider the 48-inch length for continuous runs where multiple entry points are needed without excessive splicing.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Hoffman metal enclosure family, specifically categorized as a wiring trough. It serves as a protective channel for electrical infrastructure, distinct from standard equipment enclosures. The product line emphasizes durability through welded seams and stainless steel construction for harsh industrial settings.

Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Verify dimensional compatibility if replacing older models, as the 48x6x6 inch footprint is specific. Check for equivalent Type 4X ratings in alternative manufacturers' catalogs.
