F88GUCGV

Overview

The F88GUCGV is a galvanized universal U-connector designed for use with Hoffman Lay-In wireway systems. Constructed from 16/14 gauge steel with an electro-galvanized finish, it facilitates the joining of wireway sections and fittings. The component features a top section that swings aside to retain the lay-in functionality during installation. It is engineered for 8-inch by 8-inch wireway applications, providing structural continuity and secure connections within electrical distribution networks.

Feature Summary

• Swinging top design retains lay-in feature
• Galvanized steel construction for durability
• Universal compatibility with standard wireway sections

Applications

• Joining wireway sections
• Connecting wireway fittings
• Power distribution infrastructure

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific gauge requirement (16/14) and dimensional compatibility (8x8 inches) against existing wireway specifications. Confirm that the electro-galvanized finish meets environmental corrosion resistance standards for the intended installation location. Ensure the swinging mechanism is unobstructed in the final assembly layout.

Selection Notes

Select this connector when integrating Hoffman Lay-In series components requiring a universal joint solution. The galvanized finish provides protection against general industrial corrosion. Consider the 8x8 inch dimension constraint strictly; alternative sizes require different part numbers. Verify UL 870 and CUL approvals if regulatory compliance is mandatory for the project.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Hoffman Enclosures wireway accessories family, specifically designed to complement the Lay-In series trunking systems. It serves as a critical mechanical interface element, ensuring seamless physical and electrical continuity between separate wireway runs or transitions to fittings without compromising the system's integrity.

Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available in the provided documentation. Direct replacement requires identical dimensional and material specifications.
