Technical Specifications
This Form 8 condulet gasket features solid neoprene construction in 1-inch trade size, specifically designed for ordinary/non-hazardous locations. The gasket measures 5.59 inches in height, 1.81 inches in length, and 0.06 inches in width, with a lightweight 0.03 lb construction. Manufactured to NEC/CEC standards, this gasket ensures code-compliant installations while providing reliable environmental protection for condulet assemblies.
Installation Process
- Verify condulet body and cover are clean and free of debris or old gasket material
- Inspect gasket seating surfaces for damage, nicks, or irregularities that could compromise seal
- Position the neoprene gasket evenly in the condulet cover groove, ensuring complete contact
- Check that gasket lies flat without twisting, bunching, or gaps at corners
- Install cover onto condulet body, applying even pressure to compress gasket uniformly
- Tighten cover screws to manufacturer specifications using proper torque sequence
Applications
Perfect for:
- Outdoor Electrical Installations - Weather-exposed condulet assemblies requiring moisture protection
- Industrial Facilities - Manufacturing plants, processing facilities, and heavy-duty electrical systems
- Commercial Buildings - Office complexes, retail centers, and institutional electrical infrastructure
- Municipal Projects - Schools, government buildings, and public utility installations
- Agricultural Systems - Farm buildings, irrigation controls, and outdoor equipment connections
- Marine Environments - Coastal installations where salt air and humidity are concerns
- Chemical Processing - Areas with mild chemical exposure requiring resistant sealing materials
- Maintenance Replacements - Upgrading existing condulet seals for improved weather protection
Condulet System Benefits
Condulet fittings with proper gasket sealing provide superior access for wire pulling and maintenance compared to standard conduit fittings. The removable cover design allows for easy conductor installation and future modifications while maintaining environmental protection. This gasket ensures the condulet assembly maintains its weather-resistant properties throughout years of service, preventing moisture intrusion that could compromise electrical safety and system reliability.
Why Choose Neoprene Construction?
Neoprene offers the ideal balance of flexibility, durability, and chemical resistance for electrical sealing applications. Unlike rubber gaskets that can deteriorate from ozone exposure or temperature cycling, neoprene maintains its sealing properties across a wide range of environmental conditions. The solid construction eliminates potential failure points found in hollow or composite gaskets, ensuring consistent performance in critical electrical installations where moisture protection is essential for safety and code compliance.
