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.
