Appleton 8466 4-inch Square Mud Ring 1-gang

Product Description

The APPLETON 8466 is a 4-inch square switch ring, also known as a mud ring or raised plaster ring, designed for use with standard 4-inch square electrical boxes. This 1-gang ring raises the device mounting surface 1-1/4 inches above the box face, allowing flush device installation in walls with varying drywall or plaster thicknesses. It is a standard component in commercial and residential electrical rough-in work, installed by licensed electricians during the finishing stage of a wiring project. The ring accepts standard single-gang wiring devices and cover plates.

This switch ring is used in commercial construction, tenant improvement work, and residential installations where 4-inch square outlet or device boxes are the specified box type. It is commonly installed in drywall, plaster, and masonry applications. The 1-1/4-inch raised depth accommodates typical wall finishing materials and brings the device mounting surface to the finished wall plane.
