Steel City GW 225 G – Frequently Asked Questions
1) How do I pick the right size Steel City GW masonry box for my device count and conductor fill?
The GW gangable masonry boxes run from 31.6 cubic inches up to 134.0 cubic inches, so you size by the box fill calculation for your conductors, devices and clamps. The ladder is: GW 225 G at 31.6, GW 325 G at 47.4, GW 425 G at 64.0, GW 525 G at 79.0, GW 435 G at 93.5, GW 625 G at 94.8, GW 535 G at 111.7 and GW 635 G at 134.0 cubic inches. Each is sold individually.
2) What does gangable mean on a Steel City GW masonry box, and can I combine them on site?
Gangable means the side plates come off so two or more boxes can be joined into a wider assembly for multi-device openings in block or brick walls. That matters if your device count changes after the rough-in: instead of pulling the box, you gang an additional GW body alongside it. The GW line is steel and comes in capacities from 31.6 to 134.0 cubic inches.
3) Is a masonry box the right choice, or should I be using a standard steel device box?
Use a masonry box like the Steel City GW when the box is set into concrete block, brick or poured masonry. The body is shaped to sit in the block cell and the plaster ring geometry is built in, where a standard stud-mount steel device box needs a bracket or nail-on ears and does not survive being grouted in. For wood or steel stud walls with drywall, a regular gangable device box is the correct part.
4) I need to standardize masonry boxes across a facility. Can I order the same GW box in different depths?
Yes. The GW family pairs width with depth across eight capacities, so you can hold one product line and step depth where fill requires it: GW 425 G at 64.0 cubic inches and GW 435 G at 93.5, or GW 625 G at 94.8 and GW 635 G at 134.0, are the shallower and deeper versions of the same widths. Ordering is by the each.
5) Which Steel City masonry box has the largest capacity?
GW 635 G, at 134.0 cubic inches, is the largest in the GW gangable masonry box range. The next step down is GW 535 G at 111.7 cubic inches. Those are the two to look at for high conductor counts or multi-gang device banks in a block wall.
6) What are Steel City GW masonry boxes made of and what is the finish?
Steel body, silver in appearance, which on this class of box is the galvanized steel finish. That is what lets it be set in masonry and grouted without the corrosion problem a bare or painted box would have.
7) Where are Steel City GW masonry boxes manufactured? I have Buy Canadian language on the contract.
Country of origin is Canada. If your bid package or government contract carries domestic content language, that is the origin on record for the GW gangable masonry box line.
