Arlington Industries FB417SLP – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Arlington FB417S nail-on fan box work for hanging a ceiling fan, or is it fixture-only?
It is built for both. The FB417S is a nail-on fan and fixture box with a steel bracket behind the plastic housing, and that steel reinforcement is what carries a ceiling fan rather than just a light. Same box handles heavier lighting fixtures in the same prep.
2) What is the difference between Arlington FB417S and FB417SLP?
Two versions of the same nail-on fan box: FB417S is the standard, FB417SLP is the low profile. The low profile takes up less depth above the finished ceiling, which matters when you are tight on joist bay space or working against ductwork. Both are the 20.0 cubic inch box with the steel bracket.
3) What ceiling thickness is the Arlington FB417S bracket set for?
The steel bracket is set for 1-1/2 inch ceiling thickness, so the box face lands flush with the finished surface when it is nailed to the joist. If you are stacking two layers of 5/8 drywall or furring below the joist, the setback will be wrong and you want a different depth setting.
4) Can I use a nail-on fan box like this in an existing finished ceiling?
No. Nail-on means it fastens directly to the side of an exposed joist, so it is a new-work or gut-renovation box. For a finished ceiling with no access, you need a retrofit or old-work fan brace box that expands between joists through the existing hole.
5) Is 20 cubic inches enough box fill for a fan with a light kit and a switch loop?
20.0 cubic inches is the rated volume of this Arlington nail-on fan box, which is the usual size for a fan feed plus a switched leg. Count your conductors, clamps, and device allowances against that 20.0 figure before you pull it in. If you are landing several 14/3 and 14/2 runs plus grounds in the same box, do the fill calculation first.
6) Is this Arlington fan box UL listed for commercial work?
Yes, it carries a UL listing, and it is used in commercial lighting, office, retail, and light industrial fixture work as well as residential fan installs. Made in the United States, which matters on jobs with domestic sourcing requirements.
7) Will a plastic fan box really hold a ceiling fan safely?
The housing is plastic but the load path is the steel bracket that nails to the joist, so the fan weight transfers to framing rather than to the plastic shell. That is the same reason it is rated for fans and not just fixtures. Always confirm your specific fan's weight against the box marking before hanging it.
8) How does the Arlington FB417S ship, and what color is the box?
It comes in black, and standard packaging is 25 pieces per carton. That quantity suits multi-family or tract work where you are setting a fan box in every bedroom rather than buying singles.
