F66T3R12

Overview

The Hoffman F66T3R12 is a straight section wireway designed for electrical cable management. It features a male end configuration and measures 12 inches in length with a 6-inch by 6-inch cross-section. Constructed from 16-gauge galvanized steel, it provides structural durability. The unit includes a hinged cover secured by a quick-release latch system. It carries NEMA Type 3R and UL 870 ratings, indicating suitability for outdoor and indoor environments where protection against rain, sleet, and external ice formation is required.

Feature Summary

• Hinged cover assembly with quick-release latches for accessible maintenance
• Galvanized steel construction with ANSI 61 gray polyester powder paint finish
• Self-connecting system design for continuous cable runs

Applications

• Enclosing wire and cable in straight wireway runs
• Outdoor electrical installations requiring NEMA Type 3R protection
• Indoor industrial cable routing systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific gauge requirement, as 14-gauge variants may exist within the same model family. Confirm that the male end configuration matches the downstream connection requirements of the installation layout. Ensure compatibility with compatible straight sections or transition pieces to maintain the self-connecting system integrity throughout the run.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a rigid, moisture-resistant pathway is needed for multiple cables. The 6x6 inch dimensions accommodate larger cable bundles compared to smaller profiles. The galvanized finish offers corrosion resistance suitable for harsh environments. Verify that the 16-gauge thickness meets the mechanical load expectations for the mounting location.

Part Context

This part belongs to the nVent Hoffman F66 Lay-In Wireway series. These components are engineered for modular cable management infrastructure. The F66 series typically includes various lengths and configurations to create complete routing paths. The Type 3R rating distinguishes it from indoor-only enclosures, allowing use in unprotected outdoor areas.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include other NEMA Type 3R straight sections with matching 6x6 inch internal dimensions and male ends. Ensure replacement units maintain the 16-gauge steel specification and hinged cover mechanism to preserve environmental sealing and access functionality.
