The Conversions Tech Precision Die-Cast 1-Gang Electrical Box is a deep-profile enclosure engineered for single-device installations including switches, GFCIs, receptacles, and sensors. The A380-grade die-cast aluminum construction with UV-stable polyester powder-coat finish (RAL 7035 Gray) delivers mechanical strength and corrosion resistance for indoor and outdoor applications. Rated UL 514A, UL 50E, and NEMA 3R/4, this box suits residential, commercial, and industrial environments where weatherproofing and code compliance are required.

FAQ
Does this box meet NEC box fill requirements for 12 AWG devices?
Yes. The 18.3 in³ internal volume exceeds NEC 314.16(A) requirements for 1-gang device enclosures. For 12 AWG conductors, deduct 2.25 in³ per device yoke plus allowance for grounding conductors and cable clamps as applicable.
Is NEMA 3R/4 rating sufficient for wet locations without additional protection?
NEMA 3R provides rain-tight protection for outdoor use; NEMA 4 adds hose-directed water resistance. This rating satisfies NEC 314.15 for wet locations when properly installed with listed fittings and maintained gasket integrity. For submersion or prolonged standing water, verify local amendments requiring NEMA 4X or 6P.
What torque specifications apply for hub and device mounting?
Conduit locknuts: 35 lbf·in; box mounting lugs: 25 lbf·in; M4 ground screw: 12 lbf·in; device mounting to 6-32 bosses: 8 lbf·in. Closure plugs: 30 lbf·in. Use calibrated torque tools to prevent thread damage in aluminum castings.
