Construction

  • Bodies and covers are formed from 14-gauge steel with 10 gauge steel flanges.

  • 12” x 6” size has a 12 gauge steel body with a 14-gauge cover.
  • Smooth continuously welded seams.
  • Interior surfaces are smooth to prevent wire damage during 
    installation.

  • Solid oil resistant gaskets are used between flanges when sections and fittings are bolted together.
  • One gasket kit, complete with hardware is provided with each straight section or fitting.
  • Sealing plate is supplied.
  • Flange junctions are sealed with gasket sealing plates, which are put in place after wiring is completed. One is supplied with all straight sections and most fittings; see table for exact number.

Notes

  • When joining a wireway section or fitting to an enclosure be sure to order a box connector.
  • When joining two wireway sections, or joining a wireway section to a fitting, a flat sealing plate is required at each junction; necessary kits are supplied with each section and fitting. See table, extra kits may be ordered if necessary.
  • When joining a lay-in wireway section or fitting to a closure plate, a box connector, or cut-off fitting, an angle sealing plate is required at each junction.
  • Necessary kits are supplied with each section and fitting - see table. Extra kits, although not normally required, are necessary when joining lay-in wireway to a non-lay-in section or fitting section.
