Steel City 52171-EW-SSX – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is a wrap-around bracket on an outlet box and when do I use it?
The wrap-around bracket wraps the side and face of the stud so the box registers itself against the framing member, setting depth and plumb without a separate mounting ear or bar hanger. It is the fast choice for new construction rough-in on wood studs where the box sits directly on a stud face. If your box has to land between studs, or you are cutting into a finished wall, a wrap-around bracket box is the wrong pick - use an adjustable bar hanger box or an old-work box instead.
2) Will a standard 4 square plaster ring or blank cover fit the Steel City 52171-EW-SSX?
Yes. The box is a 4 x 4 inch square with 2-1/8 inch depth, so the face is the standard 4 inch square opening and takes any standard 4 square mud ring, single or two-gang plaster ring, or flat blank cover. The extra depth is all behind the face and does not change cover compatibility.
3) How many knockouts does the Steel City 4 inch square deep box have for conduit and cable entries?
Fourteen knockouts, spread across the sides and back, which is what lets you feed a multi-circuit junction or a two-gang device box from several directions without adding a pull point. Plan your EMT or cable entries around the wrap-around bracket side, since that face sits against the stud.
4) Can I use a steel outlet box like this outdoors or in a wet location?
No. This is a plain steel indoor outlet box with a silver finish, built for dry interior rough-in on residential, commercial, and industrial jobs. For a damp or wet location you need a weatherproof box and gasketed in-use cover rated for that environment.
5) Do I need a separate ground screw or pigtail with this steel box?
Steel boxes have to be bonded, so the equipment grounding conductor lands in the box on a 10-32 green ground screw or an approved ground clip, then pigtails to the device. Budget one per box on your takeoff - it is the item most often missed on a rough-in order.
6) Is this box sold individually or by the case?
The 52171-EW-SSX is sold each, so you can order the exact count for a rough-in rather than buying a full carton.
7) Where is the Steel City 52171-EW-SSX made?
Canada. That matters on public and institutional jobs carrying domestic or trade-agreement sourcing language in the spec, so it is worth noting on the submittal.
