Mulberry Conduit Knockout Reducer Washer, Trade Size Adapter

The Mulberry Conduit Knockout Reducer Washer gives electricians and contractors a simple way to adapt an oversized conduit or enclosure knockout down to a smaller trade size opening, letting smaller conduit fittings, connectors, locknuts, or cable assemblies seat securely without swapping out the box, cabinet, or panel. This family of reducer washers is available in trade size reductions from 3 in. to 2 in. and 4 in. to 2 in., covering the most common mismatched conduit-to-knockout situations found on commercial, industrial, and residential job sites. Each washer is a purpose-built reducer profile, distinct from a standard locknut or bushing, engineered to correct oversized knockouts so installers can complete the job without additional hardware replacement. Every option in this family is clearly identified with its own Mulberry model number for accurate ordering, reordering, and stocking.

Key Features

  • Trade Size Reduction Range: Available in reductions from 3 in. to 2 in. and 4 in. to 2 in., allowing smaller conduit, connectors, or fittings to seat securely in a larger opening.
  • Reducer Washer Design: Purpose-built washer profile intended specifically for trade size adaptation between mismatched knockouts and conduit or fitting sizes, distinct from a standard locknut or bushing.
  • Field-Ready Solution: Resolves conduit-to-knockout size mismatches on site without requiring a full box, cabinet, or panel replacement, saving material and labor time.
  • Model Identification: Each size option is individually marked with its own Mulberry model number for easy identification, reordering, and stocking by electrical contractors, panel shops, and distributors.
  • Compact Hardware Component: A small, low-profile washer that fits within existing knockout openings without adding significant bulk to the enclosure.
  • Consistent Trade Size Match: Designed to standard trade size dimensions so each option interfaces predictably with common conduit, connectors, and knockouts used in the field.

Technical Specifications

  • Trade Size Reduction Options: 3 in. to 2 in., 4 in. to 2 in.
  • Refer to manufacturer documentation for complete specifications.

Mulberry 40031 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) I have a 4 inch knockout and 2 inch conduit, is the 40031 the right part?
No. The 40031 covers 3 inch down to 2 inch only. For a 4 inch knockout taking 2 inch conduit, order the Mulberry 40046, which is the 4 in. to 2 in. reduction in the same reducer washer line.
2) Can I use a reducer washer instead of replacing a panel with oversized knockouts?
That is the point of it. On a retrofit or service call where the existing knockout is larger than the conduit you are running, the Mulberry 40031 adapts a 3 inch opening down to 2 inch so the smaller connector seats correctly. No need to swap the box, cabinet, or panelboard, which is where the labor and material cost would go.
3) Is a reducer washer the same thing as a reducing bushing or a locknut?
No. A reducer washer such as the Mulberry 40031 is a flat washer-style plate that closes down an oversized knockout to a smaller trade size. A locknut secures the fitting to the enclosure and a bushing protects the conductors at the conduit end. The washer handles the size mismatch; you still use the appropriate connector and locknut for the 2 inch fitting itself.
4) What trade size reductions do Mulberry reducer washers come in?
Two reductions are offered: 3 in. to 2 in. as model 40031, and 4 in. to 2 in. as model 40046. Both land a 2 inch fitting, so the choice comes down to the size of the existing knockout in your panel or enclosure.
5) Will a Mulberry reducer washer add bulk inside my enclosure?
It is a low-profile washer that sits within the existing knockout opening, so it does not take up meaningful room inside the cabinet or crowd the gutter space around conductors.
6) What part number should I stock for 3 inch to 2 inch knockout reductions?
Mulberry 40031. The part is marked with that model number, which is what distributors and panel shops use to reorder and keep the right trade size on the shelf. The companion number for 4 inch to 2 inch work is 40046.
