Orbit Industries DHB-3-FB 3-gang Drawn Handy Box Flat Bracket

Product Description

The ORBIT INDUSTRIES DHB-3-FB is a 3-gang drawn handy box with a flat bracket, designed for residential and commercial electrical wiring installations. Constructed from 16-gauge sheet steel, this box measures 5.75 inches x 4 inches x 2.125 inches deep, providing ample interior volume for device and conductor routing. The flat bracket (FB) configuration allows for secure mounting to structural framing members. Knockout provisions on multiple sides and the bottom give electricians flexible conduit and cable entry options on the job. Licensed electricians are the primary installers of this product.

This handy box is suited for use in both residential and commercial wiring applications where a 3-gang device box is required. The drawn steel construction and flat bracket make it appropriate for new construction and retrofit scenarios where box support from a stud or joist face is accessible. Its multiple knockout configurations support a range of wiring methods.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes.
