Technical Specifications
This 1" trade size gasket is manufactured from high-grade neoprene rubber specifically formulated for electrical applications. The gasket measures 5.34 inches in height with precise dimensional tolerances to ensure proper fit in Condulet Series 5 bodies. At just 0.03 pounds, the lightweight design simplifies installation while providing robust sealing performance. The gasket meets NEC/CEC standards for ordinary/non-hazardous locations and is engineered for use in wet location applications where moisture protection is critical.
Installation Process
- Turn off power and verify electrical safety before beginning work
- Remove condulet cover by loosening mounting screws
- Carefully remove old gasket, cleaning any debris from sealing surfaces
- Inspect condulet body and cover for damage or corrosion
- Position new neoprene gasket ensuring proper alignment with cover groove
- Reinstall cover with appropriate torque to compress gasket evenly
- Verify proper seal by checking gasket compression around entire perimeter
Applications
Perfect for:
- Outdoor Electrical Systems - Weather-exposed condulet installations requiring moisture protection
- Industrial Facilities - Manufacturing plants, processing facilities, and heavy industrial environments
- Commercial Buildings - Office complexes, retail centers, and institutional facilities
- Municipal Infrastructure - Schools, government buildings, and public utility installations
- Agricultural Applications - Barns, processing facilities, and irrigation control systems
- Marine Environments - Coastal installations where salt air and humidity are concerns
- Chemical Processing - Areas with mild chemical exposure requiring resistant sealing materials
- Maintenance Programs - Preventive maintenance replacement in existing condulet systems
Condulet System Benefits
Condulet outlet bodies provide essential access points for wire pulling, splicing, and system maintenance in conduit runs. The gasket is a critical component that maintains the weather-resistant integrity of these access points. By using genuine Eaton Crouse-Hinds gaskets, electrical contractors ensure optimal fit and performance, preventing the moisture infiltration that can lead to conductor corrosion, insulation breakdown, and system failures. Regular gasket replacement is a cost-effective maintenance practice that extends the service life of condulet installations.
Why Choose Neoprene Construction?
Neoprene rubber offers the ideal combination of properties for electrical sealing applications. Unlike standard rubber compounds, neoprene maintains its flexibility and sealing effectiveness across a wide temperature range while resisting degradation from ozone, weather, and many industrial chemicals. This superior material performance translates to longer gasket life, reduced maintenance frequency, and more reliable protection for critical electrical connections. Eaton Crouse-Hinds' precision manufacturing ensures consistent quality and dimensional accuracy for professional installations.
