Pass & Seymour SSO26 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Pass & Seymour SSO26 fit a standard decorator-style switch or GFCI receptacle?
Yes. The SSO26 is a 1-gang plate with a single decorator (rectangular) opening, so it covers decorator rocker switches, decorator receptacles, and GFCI devices with the decorator face. It will not fit a toggle switch or a duplex receptacle - those take a toggle-punch or duplex-punch plate instead.
2) Is a stainless steel wall plate worth it over a painted steel or plastic plate in a wash-down area?
In a wash-down or corrosive atmosphere, yes. The SSO26 uses Type 302/304 stainless with 18% chromium and 8% nickel, which is the reason it's recommended for food processing plants, dairies, and chemical plants. A painted cold rolled steel plate like the Mulberry 8640 Series 1-gang is a reasonable choice for a dry office or corridor, but the coating is what stands between it and rust. In a kitchen, plant floor, or anywhere getting hosed down, go stainless.
3) What is the closest stainless steel alternative to a Pass & Seymour SSO26 for a 1-gang decorator opening?
The SSO26 is a 1-gang decorator wall plate in 302/304 stainless steel with a brushed finish. Among comparable 1-gang wall plates, the Bryant NP26W in the HWS series covers the same single-gang opening footprint, and the Mulberry 86401 in the 8640 series is a 1-gang steel plate in white. The SSO26 remains the one specified as stainless steel with a brushed metallic face, so if the corrosion resistance is the reason for the spec, the steel-bodied plates are a different material choice rather than a straight match.
4) I need a plate for a duplex receptacle, not a decorator device - what should I order instead of the SSO26?
The SSO26 is punched for one decorator opening, which fits decorator-style switches and receptacles only; a standard duplex receptacle will not seat in it. For a duplex device, the Bryant P8 series 1-gang duplex wallplate is punched for that opening. Confirm the device style in the box before ordering, since decorator and duplex openings are not interchangeable.
5) What do I use if the opening is two gangs instead of one?
The SSO26 covers a single gang with one decorator opening, so it will not span a two-device box. For 2-gang combination openings, the Mulberry 76432 in the 764 series and the Mulberry 76532 in the 765 series are both 2-gang combination wall plates in cold rolled steel, white. Those are painted steel rather than the SSO26's 302/304 stainless, so the finish and material will not match an existing stainless run.
6) For a wash-down or food processing area, is a painted steel plate an acceptable substitute for the SSO26?
The SSO26 is built from Type 302/304 stainless steel containing 18% chromium and 8% nickel, and is recommended for food processing plants, dairies, chemical plants, and other corrosive atmospheres. The comparable steel plates - the Mulberry 86401 1-gang and the Mulberry 76432 and 76532 2-gang combination plates - are cold rolled or plain steel in white, which is a coated-surface approach rather than a corrosion-resistant alloy. In a wash-down room, that difference is the reason the stainless plate is usually specified.
7) What are the dimensions of the SSO26 stainless wall plate?
It measures 5.25 in high by 2.75 in wide, with a depth of 0.2 in, and the steel itself is .032 in nominal thickness. That's standard-size, not jumbo, so it sits flush the way a normal 1-gang plate does and won't hide an oversized cut-out in the drywall.
8) Does the SSO26 wall plate come with mounting screws?
It ships with finish-matching screws and is packaged in protective film, so nothing extra is needed to hang it on a standard decorator device. Peel the film after the plate is set to keep the brushed face clean during trim-out.
9) Is this stainless plate magnetic? I need non-magnetic for our facility.
The SSO26 is a non-magnetic 302/304 stainless alloy. That matters in MRI suites, some lab environments, and anywhere magnetic-hold cleaning or detection equipment is in use.
10) I need more than one gang, or a jumbo size. Does this stainless line go beyond 1-gang decorator?
The stainless line runs well past the SSO26. Standard, Jumbo, and Tandem plates are made, plus panel plates up to 5-gangs high and 10-gangs wide, and they can be silk-screened, engraved, or custom punched in over 300 opening styles. The SSO26 itself is the standard-size, single decorator opening version.
11) What other 1-gang wall plates could I use instead of the Pass & Seymour SSO26?
Depends what you're covering and where. For a duplex receptacle rather than a decorator device, the Bryant P8 Series 1-gang duplex plate is the punch you want. For a painted steel 1-gang in a dry interior, the Mulberry 8640 Series in white. Bryant also offers the NP26W in the HWS series. None of those are stated as stainless, so if corrosion resistance is the reason you're specifying, stay with the SSO26.
12) Is the Bryant PJ series wallplate a substitute for the Pass & Seymour SSO26?
They are not equivalents. The Bryant PJ is an M-size wall plate for wiring devices, so it is sized to a different plate footprint than the SSO26, which is a standard 1-gang decorator plate measuring 5.25 inches high by 2.75 inches wide. If you are matching plate sizes across a wall or a corridor of devices, the oversize dimension is the thing to verify before substituting.
13) Can I use the SSO26 to cover a data or voice jack?
No - the SSO26 is punched with a single decorator opening for decorator-style switches and receptacles, with no integral jack. For a low-voltage drop, the Eaton 35324W is a wall plate with a 4-conductor data/voice modular jack, Type 625B4, built into it. A decorator plate can accept a separate modular insert only if the insert is a decorator-style device, so the two are different orders.
14) I need a labeled plate for a gas burner switch - does the SSO26 work?
The SSO26 is an unlabeled brushed stainless decorator plate, though the line can be silk-screened or engraved for identification. If you want a factory-marked plate, the Mulberry 41020 in the 4102 series is a 1-gang toggle switch plate marked Gas Burner in red. Note that it is a toggle opening, so it suits a standard toggle switch rather than the decorator device the SSO26 is punched for.
15) Can a stainless wall plate be painted to match the other plates on the wall?
Yes. The brushed finish on the SSO26 is paintable if you need it to match adjacent plastic plates. Left unpainted it reads as a brushed metallic face, which is the usual look in industrial and commercial spaces.
16) Is the SSO26 made in the USA?
Country of origin is the United States. That's the answer procurement teams working to Buy American or domestic-preference requirements usually need in writing before a government or institutional order goes through.
