Key Features

Explosion-Proof & Dust-Ignition-Proof Construction

Certified for hazardous locations, providing superior safety and reliability in explosive and combustible environments. The rugged construction prevents internal explosions from propagating to the surrounding atmosphere.

Mirror Polished "Brite" Finish

The mirror polished (#4 polished / brite) finish on both the body and cover provides:

  • Superior corrosion resistance : The smooth surface minimizes crevice corrosion and bacterial adhesion
  • Easy cleaning : Sanitary design suitable for CIP (clean-in-place) systems
  • Professional aesthetic : Clean appearance for visible installations
  • Enhanced hygiene : Smooth surface resists bacterial growth and simplifies sanitation

Premium SS316 (CF8M) Material

Our outlet boxes are manufactured from premium 316 stainless steel (cast CF8M), providing:

  • Unmatched corrosion resistance : Exceptional protection against chlorides, acids, and saline atmospheres
  • Molybdenum-enhanced durability : Resists pitting and crevice corrosion in aggressive environments
  • Long service life : Eliminates lifecycle costs associated with corrosion-related failures
  • Hygienic properties : Suitable for food processing, pharmaceutical, and sanitary applications

Machined Tapered Female Threads

Conduit hubs feature precision-machined NPT tapered female threads for smooth bore inside diameter, ensuring :

  • Rigid, leak-resistant joints
  • Excellent ground continuity for protection of wire insulation
  • Secure connections with standard rigid conduit and fittings

Tightening "Ears" / Breaker-Bars

Cast-in tightening ears on the cover allow for easy installation and removal without specialized tools.

Complete Grounding and Sealing

Supplied complete with:

  • Grounding screw for reliable equipment grounding
  • Neoprene O-Ring for watertight and raintight sealing
