GRT NK wiring trough
The 101096 GRT NK uses a 16‑ga steel trough with 10 in x 10 in cross‑section and a 96 in length, delivering robust mechanical protection for long cable routes. This size and gauge combination resists bending and denting in busy equipment rooms and production lines, while the ANSI 61 gray finish hides grime and simplifies maintenance. In practice, this translates to fewer panel repairs and longer service intervals, reducing total cost of ownership for large installations. With a NEMA 3R enclosure rating and CSA Certified UL Listed status, the trough is built for reliable operation in varied environments, including outdoor installations subject to weather and moisture. This compliance helps manufacturers meet internal standards and customer requirements without extra hardware. Embossed thru holes support quick, repeatable mounting using standard plated screws, while the screw cover enhances cable management aesthetics and tamper resistance. No knockouts are present, which protects against accidental punctures and reduces field rework; for flexible entry patterns, rely on the embossed hole layout. Finish and corrosion resistance are reinforced by the ANSI 61 gray coating and plated screws, contributing to a longer service life in harsh environments. As part of the Eaton B‑Line series, the 101096 GRT NK integrates with existing enclosures and mounting rails, enabling reuse across projects and facilities, which drives procurement consistency and faster project turnover.

FAQs
The trough uses embossed thru holes for mounting with standard plated screws, enabling precise alignment and a clean finish. It does not include knockouts for field punching; entry must follow the embossed pattern and the screw-cover design to keep cables tidy. This setup is ideal for predictable installations where routing must remain secure over time.
NEMA 3R indicates the trough is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, providing protection against rain, sleet, and corrosion in typical industrial environments. This rating supports outdoor enclosures and partially covered spaces, helping maintain cable integrity and reducing maintenance cycles in harsh conditions.
The wiring trough measures 96 inches in length, with a 10 inch height and a 10 inch width. It is constructed from 16 gauge steel and weighs approximately 68.47 pounds, delivering substantial rigidity for long cable runs while remaining manageable during installation.
Yes. The trough carries CSA Certified and UL Listed markings, ensuring compliance with key safety and performance standards for electrical components. This certification supports regulatory acceptance in panel assemblies and facilities aiming to meet rigorous quality requirements.
Industries with large control panels, conveyors, and manufacturing lines benefit most, including automotive, food and beverage, and process industries. The 96 in length and robust 16 ga steel construction support long, protected cable runs, while the NEMA 3R rating and ANSI 61 gray finish help ensure reliable operation in mixed indoor/outdoor environments.
