Hammond 1485EX 8 x 8 Adjustable Wireway Fitting, Steel Gray

The 1485EX is an adjustable fitting from the 1485 X Series, sized to fit 8 x 8 N12 lay-in wireway. It is aimed at electricians, panel builders and plant maintenance teams who need to close an awkward gap in a wireway run without ordering a custom-length section, because the fitting allows on-site length adjustment of 2 in to 7 in.

The manufacturer drawing shows a telescoping assembly built around a base plate, a compression ring and a sealing cover plate. Inside dimensions are 7.62 in x 7.62 in, matching the 8 x 8 wireway it joins, and the base plate measures 10.63 in. Fixing holes are shown at 0.28 in diameter. One special sealing plate is included with the fitting.

• Fits: 8 x 8 wireway
• Adjustment range: 2.00 in to 7.00 in
• Finish: steel/gray
• Shipping weight: 11 lbs (4.99 kg)

Buyers working to a listed system should note that the manufacturer states this adjustable fitting does not meet CSA or UL requirements. It is listed as RoHS and REACH compliant and ships in a box.

Use the 1485EX where the measured distance between two fixed 8 x 8 wireway components falls within the 2 in to 7 in adjustment window, letting the run be completed during installation rather than waiting for fabricated parts.
