Arlington Industries FB426 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Arlington FB426 work in 5/8 inch drywall ceilings?
Yes, the FB426 is built for both 1/2 inch and 5/8 inch drywall. That covers standard residential ceilings and the 5/8 inch type X board common in multi-family and commercial corridors. It is a drywall-mounted box, so it needs an existing gypsum ceiling to press into rather than open framing.
2) Is the Arlington FB426 fan box UL listed for Canadian jobs?
The FB426 carries both UL and CSA listings, so it can be specified on jobs on either side of the border. That matters on institutional and inspected work where the AHJ wants a listed fan support rather than a general-purpose outlet box.
3) Is 16 cubic inches enough box volume for a ceiling fan with a light kit?
The FB426 gives you 16 cubic inches of wiring space. Under standard box fill math, 16 cubic inches allows eight 14 AWG conductors at 2 cu in each, or seven 12 AWG conductors at 2.25 cu in each, before you count the deductions a device, clamps, and grounds take. A simple fan feed with a switch leg fits comfortably; a ceiling point where several circuits are spliced through may not, and that is the case to check before you close it up.
4) What size opening does the Arlington press-on fan box need in the ceiling?
The FB426 measures 4.250 inches in height and 4.250 inches in width, so it is a square 4-1/4 inch footprint. Size your ceiling cut and confirm your fan canopy covers that footprint before you commit to a location.
5) How many Arlington FB426 boxes come in a box, and what is the part number?
Arlington sells the press-on fan and fixture box as model FB426, packaged 25 pieces to a carton at 0.270 lb each. That carton quantity suits a multi-unit turn or a tract job where fans are going into every bedroom; order by FB426.
6) Is the Arlington FB426 fan box metal or plastic, and is it made in the USA?
Black plastic, made in the United States. The plastic body means no separate bonding of the box itself, though you still land your equipment grounding conductor on the fixture and any metal mounting hardware per code.
