NEMA 1 Steel Enclosure

The HOFFMAN ASE8X6X6 is a carbon-steel electrical enclosure rated NEMA Type 1 and IP30 for indoor use. It protects wiring junctions, terminal blocks or small control devices in commercial and light-industrial settings. The powder-coated grey finish resists corrosion in dry environments. Mounting holes allow direct wall attachment.

8×6×6 inch internal volume

The 8-inch height, 6-inch width and 6-inch depth give enough room for multiple cable entries and standard terminal strips. The 12/14/16 gauge steel walls provide mechanical strength while keeping weight manageable for single-person installation. Capacity runs out when larger contactors or dense DIN-rail assemblies are required.

Captive screw cover and wall mounting

A solid cover secured with captive screws removes the risk of lost fasteners during maintenance. The screw-latch closure meets UL 50 and 50E requirements without extra hardware. Mounting holes integrate with standard strut or direct wall fixing. No gasket kit is included for higher ingress ratings.

Questions about this item

Will the 8 in by 6 in mounting holes on this enclosure align with the bracket pattern on my existing panel?

The box provides mounting holes sized for an 8 in height and 6 in width footprint, so match those centres to your current bracket spacing before drilling.

How can I confirm the IP30 rating is actually met once the cover is screwed down?

After tightening the captive screws, inspect the gasket seat around the solid cover — a continuous, even compression with no visible gaps indicates the IP30 seal is engaged.

Does the package include the captive screws and mounting hardware, or must I order them separately?

The captive screws are built into the cover; only separate lag bolts or anchors for wall mounting need to be supplied by the installer.
