Stainless steel construction delivers superior corrosion resistance in challenging environments, which translates to lower maintenance costs and longer hub life in hazardous locations. This means reduced replacement intervals and less frequent inventory replenishment, boosting plant uptime and safety. The 1/2 inch trade size fits standard conduit fittings, enabling straightforward field assembly and compatibility with existing Myers hub systems, so installation is faster and more predictable while minimizing labor cost. With a broad NEMA rating set—3, 3R, 4, 4X, 12—the SSTG 1 withstands rain, washdowns, and chemical exposure, protecting grounding conductors in outdoor and industrial settings. NEC/CEC compliance ensures regulatory alignment and smoother project approvals, while the stainless steel interior and exterior are designed for continuous grounding performance in Class I, Zone 1 locations. CAD drawings and installation sheets support precise planning and error-free mounting, improving engineering accuracy and reducing commissioning delays.
