Appleton 8436R 4-inch Octagon Swivel Hanger Cover

Product Description

The APPLETON 8436R is a 4-inch octagon swivel hanger cover designed for use with standard 4-inch octagon electrical boxes. It features a 3/4-inch knockout opening and a swivel design that allows the cover to pivot and align with conduit or fixture runs that are not perfectly plumb or square. Electricians use this cover in ceiling and wall box installations where a rigid fixed cover would cause misalignment. The swivel hanger functionality simplifies fixture or conduit support in both new construction and retrofit electrical work.

This cover is suited for residential and light commercial electrical installations where 4-inch octagon boxes are used for junction, fixture support, or conduit termination points. It is particularly useful in ceiling installations where hanger support must accommodate angular conduit drops or pendant fixture wiring. The 3/4-inch knockout accommodates standard conduit fittings commonly found in these applications.

Key Features

• Swivel design allows angular adjustment for non-plumb conduit or fixture alignments
• Fits standard 4-inch octagon electrical boxes
• 3/4-inch knockout opening for conduit entry
• Lightweight at 0.49 pounds for easy overhead installation
• Designed for use as a hanger cover in ceiling and wall box applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard accessory cover for 4-inch octagon electrical boxes in residential and light commercial electrical systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). De-energize the circuit and verify with a non-contact voltage tester before working on any electrical box. Secure the swivel hanger cover to the box using the appropriate screws before making any conduit or fixture connections. Do not overtighten the swivel pivot hardware, as this will restrict the angular adjustment the cover is designed to provide.
