Looking to fit electrical wiring accessories into a dry wall application? Then Crabtree’s Electrical Dry Wall box is your simple solution. Crabtree’s Electrical Dry Wall box is locally designed and manufactured and is a great choice for a quick and easy solution to fix switches and sockets into alternative surfaces such as dry wall applications.
Dry walls are widely used throughout the world, particularly in commercial environments. They allow for the installation of a lightweight and flexible partition in most building applications and have been used extensively in other parts of the world. These types of walls are being increasingly installed in South Africa, and Crabtree is pleased to add this ‘tried and tested’ solution to the South African electrical industry.
The Crabtree Electrical Dry Wall box is made of engineering plastic which is self-extinguishing up to 650 °C. It can accommodate various thicknesses of dry wall and can be used in existing and new installations. It can also be used as a standard wall box when used in a standard concrete or cement-based wall. The ‘quick fix yellow lugs’ allow for fast tool free installation and firmly secure the box to the dry wall. Each box has multiple knockouts for standard electrical connectors and adapters.
Other benefits include:
- Cost reduced solution compared to traditional trunking or cable management.
- Made from non-conductive material with no sharp edges, which reduces the risks to earth leakage associated with metal back boxes and wire insulation integrity.
- The electrical boxes are easily affixed to dry walls and need no screws to be attached to the dry wall board. The electrical box remains firmly in place but can be removed should it be necessary for electrical fault-finding.
- The Crabtree electrical box is quick and easy to install.
