Feraloy iron alloy construction delivers superior corrosion resistance and structural strength. This material choice translates into longer service life and lower maintenance costs in exposed installations. The C68 conduit outlet body relies on this alloy to survive in Form 8 connections for 2-inch trade size, ensuring reliability across control panels, machine wiring, and outdoor enclosures. Form 8 geometry and C-shaped body design streamline wire pulling and enclosure fit. The optimized internal path reduces snagging, speeds field termination, and minimizes conductor damage during installation. For retrofit projects or new builds, this geometry keeps blockages to a minimum and helps technicians meet tight project schedules without compromising code compliance. Dimensioning and weight are tuned for predictable field performance: length 12.25 in, height 3.56 in, width 3.75 in, and weight 7.7 lb. These specs improve mounting accuracy, spacing calculations, and tool compatibility, enabling quicker, quieter installs in crowded control cabinets and on machine frames. Certifications and standards alignment—NEMA Rating 12, NEC/CEC compliance, and Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations designation—reduce procurement risk and simplify bid packages for industrial facilities. UL certification visibility further supports supplier qualification and ensures your installations meet regulatory expectations across North America. Installation resources such as IF 964 and IF 863 instruction sheets, along with Eaton specification sheets and wiring charts, boost installer confidence. This ecosystem minimizes errors, provides explicit wire pull guidance, and supports efficient training for maintenance staff, ultimately delivering lower total cost of ownership. Beyond product performance, the C68 fits seamlessly with other Condulet components, easing inventory planning and spare-part strategies for OEMs and integrators.
