F8848SCSS

Overview

The Hoffman Enclosures F8848SCSS is an angled wiring trough constructed from 14-gauge 304 stainless steel with a No. 2B finish. It measures 48 inches in length, 8 inches in width, and 9-1/2 inches in height. The unit features a screw-type cover secured by ten threaded screws. It provides NEMA Type 4X and IP66 protection ratings, suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments. Approvals include UL 870/50E, CUL, and CSA C22.2.

Feature Summary

• Constructed from 14-gauge 304 stainless steel body and cover for corrosion resistance
• Angled design facilitates cable routing and management
• Seams are continuously welded and ground smooth to prevent debris accumulation
• Includes oil-resistant gasket and adhesive for enhanced environmental sealing

Applications

• Indoor industrial wire management
• Outdoor electrical infrastructure protection
• Chemical processing plant cabling
• Marine environment wiring support

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific model suffix matches the required gauge and material grade. Confirm that the angled profile aligns with the installation geometry. Ensure the NEMA 4X rating meets the environmental exposure requirements of the site. Check for necessary mounting hardware compatibility with existing structures.

Selection Notes

Select this model when high corrosion resistance is critical due to the 304 stainless steel construction. The angled shape is preferred over straight troughs for specific routing paths. Verify that the 14-gauge thickness meets structural load requirements. Ensure the screw cover mechanism allows for adequate access during maintenance.

Part Context

This component belongs to the nVent Hoffman F24 Series of angled wiring troughs. These units are designed for robust cable management in demanding industrial settings. The series offers various lengths and widths to accommodate different conduit and cable bundle sizes while maintaining consistent enclosure integrity standards.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 48x8x9.5 inch dimensions and 304 stainless steel material. Verify equivalent NEMA 4X/IP66 ratings. Ensure the replacement also features an angled design and screw-cover configuration to maintain system compatibility.
