Orbit Industries HDB-1-MKO-FB Handy Box Galvanized Steel

Product Description

The ORBIT INDUSTRIES HDB-1-MKO-FB is a galvanized steel handy box designed for residential and commercial electrical wiring installations. Measuring 2 x 4 x 2.125 inches and formed from 16-gauge sheet steel, this switch box provides a durable, corrosion-resistant enclosure for device mounting in standard wiring applications. The pre-punched knockout layout supports multiple conduit entry configurations, making it a straightforward fit for common raceway and cable wiring setups. A flat bracket is included to assist with mounting. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors install this type of box as part of rough-in and device installation work.

This handy box is suited for use in both residential and light commercial wiring projects. The 2 x 4 inch footprint accommodates standard single-gang wiring devices. The galvanized finish provides corrosion resistance in typical interior environments. With multiple half-inch and MKO knockouts on the sides and bottom, the box accepts common conduit fittings and cable connectors without modification. It is appropriate for new construction and retrofit wiring work where a shallow-depth metallic device enclosure is required.
