Eaton GUAT260 Conduit Outlet Body - Class I/II, Div 1
Part Number: GUAT260
Quick Summary
Eaton GUAT260 conduit outlet body is designed to provide explosion-proof terminations in hazardous locations. This helps engineers avoid safety gaps and lengthy approvals when routing conduit in potentially explosive atmospheres. The design meets NEC/CEC compliance and hazardous-location ratings, including Class I Division 1 and related Class II/III approvals. Coupled with its 3/4" trade size and robust Feraloy iron alloy, it supports reliable, compliant enclosure programs for industrial facilities. Its compact dimensions and moderate weight simplify field mounting and gasketed seals, reducing labor time on site. This combination of compliance, ruggedness, and ease of installation translates to lower total cost of ownership.

Eaton Specification Sheet - GUAT260
Feature: Feraloy iron alloy construction provides exceptional strength and corrosion resistance for explosion-proof conduit outlet bodies in harsh sites. Business impact: maintenance intervals extend and uptime improves due to durable material suitable for Class I/II hazardous locations. Application: ideal for 3/4" GUAT260 installations in oil and gas, chemical processing, and other industries where explosive atmospheres prevail. Feature: The T-shaped GUA geometry with a compact footprint facilitates flexible mounting in constrained industrial spaces. Business impact: faster installation and fewer field adjustments reduce labor costs and project schedules. Application: well-suited for retrofits or new builds where 5.25 in length, 4.38 in height, and 2 in width matter. Feature: NEC/CEC compliance and explicit hazardous-location ratings, including Class I Division 1, enable rapid approvals. Business impact: reduces project risk, avoids costly rework, and streamlines supplier qualification for critical equipment. Application: suitable for chemical plants, refineries, and energy facilities where safety certifications directly support commissioning. Feature: 2.16 lb weight and standard 3/4" trade size simplify handling and wiring terminations. Business impact: reduces on-site fatigue, accelerates crew productivity, and lowers installation labor costs. Application: ideal for high-volume installation programs in hazardous environments where standardization and quick replacement matter. Feature: compatibility with the Eaton Crouse-Hinds GUA family enables consistent terminations and spares availability. Business impact: shortens procurement cycles and ensures uniform performance across sites. Application: ideal for project teams standardizing on hazardous-location enclosures in global oil, gas, and chemical operations. Feature: access to official datasheets and UL certification references supports rapid verification during audits. Business impact: accelerates maintenance planning, simplifies audits, and stabilizes budgeting for hazardous-location enclosure programs. Application: widely used as a trusted component in long-term electrical infrastructure strategies across oil, gas, chemical, and energy facilities. Feature: lifecycle support and ready access to official documentation, including the GUA catalog page and certification reports. Business impact: accelerates maintenance planning, simplifies audits, and stabilizes budgeting for hazardous-location enclosure programs. Application: strengthens procurement confidence for multi-site installations and ongoing compliance management.
