Appleton GRH Series Explosionproof Conduit Outlet Box, Malleable Iron
The Appleton GRH Series conduit outlet box is an explosionproof, dust-ignitionproof fitting built with a malleable iron body for use in indoor and outdoor classified (hazardous) locations. Furnished with an internal ground screw and O-ring, these corrosion-resistant boxes provide access for maintenance, allow connection of different lengths of conduit, and permit changes in conduit direction, all while carrying a NEMA 3, 4 environmental rating.
Key Features
- Explosionproof, Dust-Ignitionproof: Rated for use in Class I, Groups A, B, C, and D; Class II, Groups E, F, and G; and Class III hazardous locations.
- Durable Construction: Malleable iron bodies deliver high tensile strength and ductility, with strong resistance to corrosion, impact, and shock.
- Internal Ground Screw: Standard on every unit for reliable grounding continuity.
- Tapered Hub Threads: Accurately tapped, tapered hub threads produce tight, rigid joints and dependable ground continuity with threaded metal conduit.

Why Appleton?
Appleton engineers the GRH Series with malleable iron construction and a triple-coat finish process for lasting corrosion resistance in demanding classified environments. Combined with an internal ground screw, raintight O-ring sealing, and explosionproof, dust-ignitionproof performance across Class I, II, and III locations, GRH boxes deliver code-compliant reliability for professional electrical installations.
GRH body-style key: Appleton's GRH family covers several distinct body shapes sharing the same cover/capacity spec — Type LB (this listing, GRHLB) is a back-outlet body style, the same "LB" shape convention used industry-wide for conduit bodies; Type L (see the separate GRHL listing) is a different body configuration. If you're not sure which body shape your run needs, compare the two listings before ordering — they are not the same part at a different size.
