- Verify gasket sits flush without twisting or bunching
- Apply even pressure when reinstalling condulet cover to achieve proper compression
- Torque cover fasteners to manufacturer specifications for optimal seal
Applications
Perfect for:
- Outdoor Electrical Installations - Weather-exposed condulet bodies requiring moisture protection
- Industrial Facilities - Manufacturing plants, processing facilities, and chemical environments
- Commercial Buildings - Office complexes, retail centers, and institutional facilities
- Municipal Infrastructure - Schools, hospitals, and government building electrical systems
- Agricultural Applications - Barn wiring, irrigation controls, and outdoor equipment connections
- Marine Environments - Coastal installations requiring enhanced corrosion and moisture resistance
- HVAC Systems - Equipment connections in mechanical rooms and rooftop installations
- Maintenance Operations - Routine gasket replacement in existing condulet installations
Condulet System Benefits
Condulet fittings provide superior access for wire pulling and maintenance compared to standard conduit fittings, and proper gasket sealing is critical for maintaining their weather-resistant properties. The Form 7 gasket design ensures optimal sealing performance while allowing for easy cover removal during maintenance operations, making it the preferred choice for installations requiring frequent access.
Why Choose Neoprene Construction?
Neoprene offers the ideal combination of weather resistance, chemical compatibility, and long-term durability for electrical applications. Unlike standard rubber gaskets that can deteriorate rapidly when exposed to ozone and temperature extremes, neoprene maintains its sealing properties for years of reliable service. This professional-grade material choice reflects Eaton Crouse-Hinds' commitment to providing contractors with components that deliver lasting performance and reduce maintenance costs over the system lifecycle.
