Gardner Bender KO706 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Can a knockout seal be installed from outside the box, or do I need access to the inside of the panel?
Either way works. The embossed self-centering design lets you position and set the seal from inside or outside the box, and it holds with a single screw. That matters on a live panel or a tight junction box where you cannot get a hand behind the opening.
2) Will a galvanized steel knockout seal hold up in a damp or outdoor enclosure?
The body is 16-gauge cold-rolled galvanized steel and the screw and bar hardware are zinc plated, both for corrosion resistance. That combination is aimed at long service life in enclosures exposed to moisture and varying conditions. It is a mechanical blank-off, not a gasketed watertight fitting, so for a rated wet-location enclosure confirm the closure method your enclosure listing requires.
3) Is a metal knockout seal better than a plastic snap-in plug for a commercial panel?
For commercial and industrial work, the steel seal is the one inspectors expect: 16-gauge galvanized steel with a zinc-plated screw and bar gives you a mechanically fastened closure rather than a friction snap-in, and it matches the sheet metal of the enclosure it closes. Snap-in plastic plugs are quicker on residential boxes but do not give the same structural closure in control panels or service equipment.
4) Does the knockout seal come with the screw, or do I need to supply hardware?
The screw and bar come with it, both zinc plated. One screw tightens the bar against the inside of the sheet metal and clamps the seal in place, so nothing else is needed to close the opening.
5) What jobs is the Gardner Bender KO706 steel knockout seal used for?
It closes unused knockouts left over after panel modifications, junction box work, control panel builds, and residential service upgrades. Maintenance and retrofit crews keep them on hand because pulling a conduit or a device out of an enclosure always leaves an open hole that has to be blanked off.
6) How much does a package of Gardner Bender KO706 knockout seals weigh and how big is the box?
The package runs 3 inches high by 3 inches wide with a 1.13 inch length/depth and weighs 24 ounces. Useful if you are stocking a truck bin or a shop drawer and need to know what footprint to allow.
