Technical Specifications
This Condulet Series 5 gasket accommodates 2-1/2" and 3" trade sizes with neoprene construction meeting NEC/CEC compliance standards. The gasket measures 12.13" in height, 4.43" in length, and 0.06" in width, weighing 0.2 pounds for easy handling during installation. The precision-molded neoprene material provides excellent chemical resistance and maintains flexibility across wide temperature ranges, ensuring consistent sealing performance in both indoor and outdoor electrical installations.
Installation Process
- De-energize the circuit and verify zero energy state before beginning work
- Remove the condulet cover by loosening the cover screws in a cross pattern
- Carefully remove the old gasket, cleaning any debris from the gasket seating surfaces
- Inspect the condulet body and cover for damage or corrosion that could compromise sealing
- Position the new neoprene gasket ensuring proper alignment with the condulet body groove
- Reinstall the cover, tightening screws evenly to manufacturer specifications for proper gasket compression
Applications
Perfect for:
- Outdoor Electrical Systems - Weather-exposed condulet installations requiring reliable moisture protection
- Industrial Facilities - Manufacturing plants, processing facilities, and heavy industrial electrical systems
- Commercial Buildings - Office complexes, retail centers, and institutional facilities with exterior electrical components
- Municipal Infrastructure - Schools, government buildings, and public utility electrical installations
- Agricultural Applications - Farm buildings, irrigation systems, and outdoor agricultural electrical equipment
- Marine Environments - Coastal installations where salt air and moisture create challenging conditions
- Chemical Processing - Facilities requiring gaskets resistant to various chemical exposures
- Maintenance Programs - Scheduled replacement in preventive maintenance protocols for critical electrical systems
Condulet Gasket System Benefits
Condulet gaskets are essential components that transform basic conduit outlet bodies into weatherproof electrical enclosures. Unlike basic covers without gaskets, properly gasketed condulet installations provide NEMA-rated environmental protection that prevents moisture infiltration, reduces corrosion, and extends system life. The gasket creates a compression seal that maintains integrity even under thermal cycling and mechanical stress, making it superior to sealant-only approaches that can crack or fail over time.
Why Choose Neoprene Construction?
Neoprene offers the ideal combination of weather resistance, chemical compatibility, and long-term durability for electrical gasket applications. Unlike rubber gaskets that can become brittle or silicone gaskets that may not provide adequate compression, neoprene maintains consistent elasticity across temperature extremes while resisting ozone, UV radiation, and most industrial chemicals. This Eaton Crouse-Hinds neoprene gasket is specifically formulated for electrical applications, ensuring reliable performance that protects your investment in condulet body installations for years of dependable service.
