PVC Device Box · 2 X 1/2 inch Hubs on Bottom · Single Gang · IPEX FSS10

What this product is for

This single gang PVC conduit box is used to mount wiring devices and protect splices in surface-mounted conduit systems. It is commonly selected for wet, damp, or corrosive environments where a non-metallic box is preferred.

Use for

Use for switches, receptacles, and junction points in PVC conduit runs. Suitable for surface mounting in residential, commercial, and light industrial installations where a 1/2 in trade size box is required.

Avoid for

Avoid where a flush-mount box is required, where metallic bonding is needed through the box body, or where box fill and device depth exceed the available internal volume. Confirm cover, gasket, and environmental rating for the finished assembly.

Best for

Best for electricians needing a non-metallic FS-style single gang box for surface conduit work, especially in locations where PVC helps resist rust, moisture, and many corrosive conditions.

Installed in

Typically installed on masonry, concrete, block, exterior walls, utility areas, agricultural buildings, and service spaces using compatible PVC conduit and fittings.

Why this product exists

This box provides a practical way to terminate conduit and mount a device in exposed wiring systems without using a metallic enclosure. PVC construction helps reduce corrosion concerns and keeps the box lightweight for installation.

Compared with standard FS boxes, the FSS10 is a single gang PVC box in the IPEX Scepter F Series sized for 1/2 in conduit entries. Typical selection factors are hub size, internal volume, mounting style, and whether the job calls for PVC instead of metal.
