Hammond CWST224 2.5x2.5 Hinged Cover Wireway, 24 In Long, With KO

The CWST224 is a 2.5 x 2.5 inch straight section of Type 1 lay-in hinge cover wireway, 24 inches (2 ft) long, from the CWST series. Unlike the screw cover CWSC NK line, this section carries knockouts and a hinged cover, so conductors can be laid in and the cover swung open for access. It suits electricians, panel builders and plant engineers protecting cabling in machine building and general plant wiring.

Construction is painted steel in a gray finish, and the section is listed under UL File E186830. It is RoHS compliant and REACH compliant. The drawing's Detail Z shows the knockouts at 0.88 in and 1.13 in diameter, and the hinged cover measures 23.97 in / 23.94 in along its length.

Nominal size (H x W x D) is 2.5 in x 2.5 in x 24 in (64 mm x 64 mm x 610 mm). The drawing gives inside dimensions of 2.50 in x 2.50 in and an overall outside dimension of 2.76 in / 2.61 in. Shipping weight is 4 lbs (1.81 kg), packed in a box.

Within the 2.5 x 2.5 row of the CWST ordering table, CWST224 sits alongside 12", 36", 48", 60", 72", 96" and 120" lengths, and Hammond's wireway system also includes elbows, tee fittings and other components. Note that CWST lengths no longer include a joiner kit; order one separately as needed.

For specification and purchasing, CWST224 carries UPC 623980261737 and UNSPSC 39131710. The Type 1 rating corresponds to NEMA 1, which the catalogue describes as designed for indoor use, protecting against incidental contact and a degree of falling dirt.
