Milbank MR-8 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the difference between the snap lock, screw type, and suitcase latch Milbank meter sealing rings?
Three different ways of closing the same ring around a meter socket collar. The snap lock version (MR-2SS) snaps closed and takes a utility seal, no tool needed to close it. The screw type (MR-4) closes with a screw and is the one most utilities want where the ring has to be positively torqued down. The suitcase latch style (MR-8) uses a snap action over-center latch, quick to open and close on meters that get pulled often. All three are stainless steel. There is also MR-4CDN, a screw type supplied with a Robinson head screw for Canadian work. Pick based on what your serving utility accepts, since the closure style is what they seal.
2) Which Milbank meter ring do I order for a job in Canada?
MR-4CDN. It is the screw type ring supplied with a Robinson head screw, which is the Canadian requirement for meter socket sealing hardware. The other three (MR-2SS, MR-4, MR-8) do not come with that screw, so for Canadian utility work order the CDN version specifically.
3) Are Milbank meter sealing rings stainless steel or plated steel?
MR-2SS, MR-4, and MR-8 are stainless steel, and the lock material across the family is metallic with an unpainted finish. That matters outdoors: an unpainted stainless ring on a meter socket that sits in weather for twenty years is not going to bleed rust down the wall the way a painted or plated ring does once the coating is nicked.
4) Will a Milbank sealing ring meet my utility's meter socket sealing requirement?
The Milbank MR series meter sealing rings are built to ANSI standards for metering accessories, which is the basis most utilities write their meter socket sealing specs against. What varies by utility is which closure they will accept and seal, so match the style (snap lock, screw, or suitcase latch) to what your serving utility uses on its other sockets in the area.
5) I manage a property with a bank of meters. Can I standardize on one Milbank ring across all of them?
Yes, provided the sockets take the same ring style. All four MR rings serve the same function, so a property with a uniform meter bank can be standardized on a single part number, most commonly the screw type MR-4 for permanent installs or MR-8 with the snap action suitcase latch where meters get pulled and re-sealed regularly. Where the utility seals the ring, confirm with them before switching a whole bank to a different closure style.
6) Which meter sealing ring is best where meters get pulled often for service?
MR-8, the snap action suitcase latch style in stainless steel. An over-center latch opens and closes by hand, which is what you want on a socket that gets opened repeatedly, versus the screw type MR-4 where every service call means backing a screw out and torquing it again.
7) Is a meter sealing ring the same thing as a meter socket ring or a meter cover?
A sealing ring is the band that clamps around the joint between the meter and the socket hub, holding the meter in and giving the utility a point to run a seal through. It is not the socket, not the cover, and not the meter itself. Its whole job is tamper protection at that joint. The MR series comes in snap lock, screw, and suitcase latch closures for exactly that purpose.
