Hammond CWSC248 48-Inch Gray Steel 2.5x2.5 Wireway with Knockouts

The CWSC248 is a four-foot straight section of Type 1 lay-in screw cover wireway, measuring 2.5 in x 2.5 in x 48 in (64 mm x 64 mm x 1,219 mm). It suits electrical contractors, OEM machine builders and facilities crews that need a small, enclosed pathway for control and power wiring indoors.

This part is the painted version, described by the manufacturer as Steel/Gray, and it comes with knockouts already provided. Detail Z on the drawing shows the knockouts at 0.83 in and 0.88 in diameters, giving ready entry points for fittings along the section without drilling. Conductors are laid into the open channel and the screw cover is fastened down afterwards, which keeps installation and later changes straightforward.

• Inside dimension: 2.50 in; outside: 2.61 in (per drawing)
• Overall length: 48.00 in (1219 mm)
• Typical hole diameters on the drawing: 0.27 in, 0.31 in and 0.41 in

The CWSC248 ships boxed at 9 lbs (4.08 kg). It is covered by UL File # E186830 and is listed as REACH and RoHS compliant. In the ordering table it sits in the Painted Steel, w/KO row for 48 in lengths, next to the 4 x 4, 6 x 6, 8 x 8 and 12 x 12 sizes, so a larger trunk can be specified from the same family.
