Sioux Chief 2013MF OxBox Outlet Box with Water Hammer Arrester, MIP/Sweat Connection

The Sioux Chief 697-2013MF OxBox is a single-outlet box built for rough-in installation behind the wall, designed to supply an appliance connection while providing an integrated water hammer arrester to absorb pressure surges in the supply line. This OxBox unit is configured with MIP (male iron pipe thread) and sweat (solder) connections, giving plumbers a straightforward way to tie into copper supply lines during new construction or remodel work. Packaged 1 EA, the 697-2013MF is intended for professional installers who need a compact, code-oriented outlet box solution for a single appliance supply run.

Key Features

  • Connection Type: Sweat and MIP connections allow the box to be installed directly onto copper supply piping using solder or male iron pipe threads, giving installers flexibility depending on the rough-in method used on the job.
  • Integrated Water Hammer Arrester: The "Arrestr" feature built into this OxBox unit is designed to dampen pressure spikes caused by fast-closing valves, helping protect supply lines and fittings from the repeated shock of water hammer.
  • Single Outlet Configuration: The M Out Box configuration provides one outlet connection point for a single fixture or appliance supply run, simplifying installation where only one line is needed.
  • Rough-In Ready Design: Built to be mounted behind the wall during the rough-in phase, allowing the finished supply connection to be made later once walls are closed up.
  • Sioux Chief Manufacturing: Identified by manufacturer part number 697-2013MF, this OxBox is part of the Sioux Chief line of rough-in plumbing supply products used by professional plumbers and contractors.
  • Standard Packaging: Supplied 1 EA per unit, making it easy to order the exact quantity needed for a given job or appliance run.

Sioux Chief 697-2013MF – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Sioux Chief 697-2013MF OxBox have a built-in water hammer arrester, or do I need to add one separately?
The arrester is built into the box. The 697-2013MF OxBox carries an integrated water hammer arrester that dampens the pressure spikes from fast-closing valves, so you do not need to tee in a separate arrester on that supply run. That is the main reason to pick this version over a plain outlet box.
2) What kind of pipe does the 2013MF OxBox connect to?
It is set up for copper. The 2013MF uses sweat (solder) and MIP male iron pipe thread connections, so you solder it onto copper supply piping or thread it to a male IPS fitting. If your rough-in is PEX or CPVC, this is the wrong configuration and you want an OxBox ordered with that connection type instead.
3) How many appliances will one 2013MF OxBox serve?
One. It is a single-outlet box, giving one supply connection point for a single fixture or appliance run. For a washing machine needing both hot and cold, or any two-line hookup, you need a dual-outlet OxBox rather than this one.
4) Is the OxBox 2013MF installed before or after the drywall goes up?
Before. It mounts behind the wall during rough-in, and the finished supply connection gets made later once the walls are closed up. That makes it a new-construction and gut-remodel part; on a finished wall you would be cutting in and patching.
5) What is the correct part number to spec for the sweat/MIP OxBox with arrester?
Spec Sioux Chief 697-2013MF. The MF suffix is the sweat/MIP arrester version of the OxBox single-outlet box; the OxBox family runs other suffixes for other connection types, so the full number matters on the order.
6) How is the Sioux Chief 697-2013 outlet box packaged, and can I order a single one?
It ships 1 EA, so you can order exactly the count the job needs, one per appliance supply run. Handy when you are only roughing in a single ice maker or similar.
7) Can I use this OxBox on a light commercial job or is it residential only?
Both. Sioux Chief lists the 697-2013MF for residential and light commercial plumbing rough-in, typically single-appliance supply terminations on copper. It is meant to be installed by a licensed plumber to local code.
