60A rating and a 1" trade size enable higher-capacity terminations in a compact back box. This reduces the need for oversized enclosures, lowers material costs, and shortens wiring runs. The through-feed design and cast aluminum construction simplify cable routing, speed terminations, and deliver durable performance against impact and vibration. Applications span industrial control panels and equipment enclosures where space is at a premium and reliability is critical. The ARD36 also offers corrosion resistance and robust mechanical strength, extending service life and lowering maintenance costs in harsh environments. Its Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations classification helps engineers meet installation codes without pursuing hazard-location certifications, suitable for warehouses, production floors, and general facilities. With precise dimensions and a manageable footprint, retrofit projects and new installs fit confidently alongside Arktite receptacles and standard conduit layouts.
