F88G96

Overview

The Hoffman Enclosures F88G96 is a straight section wireway designed for indoor cable management. Constructed from 14-gauge steel, it features an ANSI 61 gray polyester powder-coated finish. The unit measures 96 inches in length with an 8-inch by 8-inch cross-section. It utilizes a lay-in hinged-cover design, allowing for easy access to internal wiring without removing the cover entirely. This component is rated NEMA Type 1 and IP30, providing protection against falling objects and limited ingress of dust.

Feature Summary

• Lay-in hinged-cover design allows wires to be laid in before closing the cover
• Constructed from 14-gauge steel body and cover for structural durability
• ANSI 61 gray polyester powder paint finish provides corrosion resistance
• Completely open side facilitates straightforward wire and cable installation

Applications

• Indoor electrical panel wiring management
• Enclosing wire and cable in continuous wireway runs
• Industrial control cabinet cable routing
• Commercial building electrical infrastructure distribution

Procurement Notes

Verify that the application environment remains indoors, as this unit is rated NEMA Type 1 and lacks weatherproofing. Confirm that 14-gauge steel construction meets mechanical load requirements. Ensure compatibility with adjacent wireway sections regarding width and height dimensions. Check for necessary accessories such as end caps or connectors if sealing the run is required.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a straight, unbroken path for cable routing is needed within an indoor controlled environment. The 8x8 inch capacity suits moderate cable volumes. Consider the lay-in feature for maintenance accessibility. Compare against galvanized options if higher corrosion resistance is needed, though this model offers standard industrial protection.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Hoffman Lay-In Wireway series, specifically the straight section category. It is designed to connect with other compatible wireway components to form complete cable management systems. The product line emphasizes ease of installation through the hinged cover mechanism, distinguishing it from lift-off cover alternatives.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 8x8x96 straight sections from Hoffman, such as those with different finishes or gauges. Verify dimensional compatibility with existing runs. Alternative manufacturers may offer similar NEMA Type 1 wireways, but mounting hole patterns and cover mechanisms may differ.
