Sioux Chief OxBox 696 No-Lead Ice Maker Outlet Box with Water Hammer Arrester
The Sioux Chief OxBox 696 Ice Maker Outlet Box is a complete no-lead rough-in pack built for behind-the-wall installation of a refrigerator or freezer ice maker supply line. Each assembly combines a recessed outlet box with a factory-installed water hammer arrester, so the icemaker connection point and the surge protection for its quick-closing solenoid valve go in with a single rough-in fitting instead of two separate parts. The OxBox 696 line is offered with a choice of connection to match the job's supply piping — no-lead CPVC for solvent-weld connection to CPVC branch lines, or F1960 PEX for expansion-style connection to PEX supply lines. Whichever connection is selected, every pack in the line ships ready to set, is packaged 10 EA per case, and is manufactured in the United States for reliable supply to plumbing contractors and distributors.
Key Features
- OxBox Ice Maker Outlet Box: Recessed rough-in outlet box purpose-built for a refrigerator or freezer ice maker supply line, set flush behind the finished wall for a clean appliance connection.
- Connection Options: Available in a no-lead CPVC version for solvent-weld connection to CPVC supply piping and an F1960 PEX version for expansion connection to PEX supply piping, letting installers match the box to the branch line already on the job.
- No-Lead Construction: Built from no-lead materials so the entire ice maker branch line stays compliant with no-lead supply requirements regardless of which connection option is selected.
- Integrated Water Hammer Arrester: Factory-installed arrester absorbs the pressure spikes created when the ice maker's solenoid valve snaps shut, helping guard the supply line, fittings, and outlet box from surge-related wear.
- Complete Rough-In Pack: Ships as a ready-to-set assembly, letting the installer rough in the outlet box, stub-out, and arrester together ahead of drywall and trim-out.
- Behind-the-Wall Design: Sized to recess into the wall cavity so only the finished outlet face is exposed once the appliance is connected.
- Case Packaging: Packaged 10 EA per case, suited to stocking multiple rough-ins per job or distributing across several service calls.
- Made in the USA: Manufactured in the United States.
