Feature: 14 gauge steel construction delivers durable, rigid support for demanding environments. Business Impact: This thickness withstands vibration, dust ingress, and physical abuse, reducing panel maintenance and replacements. Application: Ideal for industrial control panels and electrical enclosures where long cable runs require reliable protection. Feature: Hinged cover with heavy-duty hinges and screw clamps enables rapid access without compromising security. Business Impact: Maintenance time is reduced by eliminating fiddly latching, while the cover remains securely closed during operation. Application: Suitable for frequent wiring inspections and routine panel servicing in automation lines. Feature: Welded external mounting feet provide robust mounting compatibility and simplify installation. Business Impact: Faster, more repeatable mounting against enclosures or panels reduces field labor costs. Application: Great for retrofits or new builds in sheet-metal panels where mounting tolerance matters. Feature: Seamless poured-in-place construction creates a continuous, smooth interior surface. Business Impact: Easier cable routing, easier cleaning, and reduced snag points help improve wiring quality. Application: Ideal for clean-room adjacent or dusty industrial areas where cable protection matters. Feature: NEMA 12 rated design with gray finish and 14 gauge steel. Business Impact: Delivers dust and moisture resistance while maintaining a professional appearance; Certification friendly for CSA C22.2 UL Listed environments. Application: Common in data centers, manufacturing lines, and automation cabinets requiring reliable enclosure protection. Feature: Precise dimensions 18 in length, 6 in width and height, weight ~12.7 lb. Business Impact: Predictable footprint supports efficient space planning and reduces overhang in tight panels. Application: Fits standard 18x6x6 in wiring trough allocations in Eaton B-Line series installations.

FAQs
Installers mount the 6x6 in cross-section trough using the welded external mounting feet to secure it to the enclosure frame or panel back. Align with cable routing and ensure the hinged cover closes fully. Use the heavy-duty clamps to secure the cover, then route cables through the 18 in length with neat, protected entries to minimize snag points.
The 6618-12WT is CSA C22.2 certified and UL Listed, which confirms compliance with recognized safety and performance standards for electrical enclosures. This helps ensure regulatory alignment for panel builds, reduces qualification time for installations, and supports safer operation in demanding industrial environments.
Yes. The trough features welded external mounting feet designed for flexible alignment with standard enclosure frames. Its 18 in length and 6x6 in footprint suit many common panel configurations, and the hinged cover facilitates quick access during commissioning or maintenance without requiring extra clearance.
The hinged cover and heavy-duty hardware reduce access time during inspections, while the 14-gauge steel and seamless interior minimize wear and environmental ingress. Over time, this lowers maintenance labor costs, extends component life, and improves wiring organization—leading to lower downtime and quicker upgrades in automation lines.
Common applications include industrial control panels, automation cabinets, and electrical enclosures with 12-status protection needs. The 6618-12WT supports robust cable routing for machine wiring runs in manufacturing facilities, data centers, and harsh factory environments, where durability, protection, and compliance with NEMA 12, CSA, and UL standards are critical.
