F66T3R60

Overview

The F66T3R60 is a straight section wireway manufactured by Hoffman Enclosures, Inc. It features a lay-in design with a hinged cover and quick-release latches for easy access. Constructed from 16/14 gauge galvanized steel, the unit measures 60 inches in length with a 6-inch by 6-inch cross-section. The exterior finish is an ANSI 61 gray polyester powder paint applied over the galvanized substrate. This component is rated NEMA Type 3R, suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments, and complies with UL 870 standards.

Feature Summary

• Lay-in construction allows for flexible cable installation without removing covers
• Self-connecting system enables seamless linking of multiple sections
• Hinged cover secured with quick-release latches facilitates maintenance access
• Galvanized steel body with gray polyester powder coating provides corrosion resistance

Applications

• Enclosing wire and cable in industrial wireway runs
• Indoor electrical distribution systems requiring cable management
• Outdoor installations protected against rain and sleet (Type 3R)
• Commercial building infrastructure for power and data routing

Procurement Notes

Verify that the required NEMA Type 3R rating matches environmental exposure conditions. Confirm that the 6x6 inch internal volume accommodates the specific cable bundle diameter. Ensure compatibility with adjacent Hoffman wireway sections using the self-connecting system. Check UL 870 listing requirements for the specific installation jurisdiction. Validate that the 16/14 gauge steel thickness meets structural load expectations for the mounting span.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a straight run configuration is needed to bridge distances between enclosures or panels. The 60-inch length reduces the number of joints compared to shorter segments. Choose the 6x6 inch dimensions only if the total cross-sectional area of conductors remains within fill capacity limits defined by applicable electrical codes. Consider the galvanized steel material for durability in harsh environments where aluminum alternatives might be insufficient.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Hoffman Lay-In Wireway family, designed for efficient cable management in electrical systems. It complements other straight sections, elbows, and tees within the same product line. The Type 3R rating distinguishes it from indoor-only variants, while the galvanized steel construction differentiates it from aluminum or stainless steel options. It serves as a critical interconnection component in larger raceway networks.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 6x6x60 inch dimensions and Type 3R rating. Verify that alternative brands offer identical lay-in hinge mechanisms and self-connecting interfaces to ensure system continuity. Cross-reference UL 870 certification status before adoption. Generic wireways may lack the specific quick-release latch functionality or precise dimensional tolerances required for Hoffman-compatible assemblies.
