Overview

The ABB FS1-B PVC Double-Coated Dead End Device Box (SKU: FS1-B) is a shallow-style, single-gang electrical enclosure designed for secure dead-end conduit connections in industrial, commercial, and residential electrical installations. Constructed from iron alloy with a durable PVC double-coating (nominal 0.040" / 40 mil thickness), this device box provides superior corrosion resistance and long-term durability in wet or corrosive environments. The light blue finish enhances visibility and organization in electrical panels, while the 1/2-inch (16 metric) hub ensures compatibility with standard 1/2-inch conduit systems. Key features include a shallow profile (4-1/8" x 2-3/8" x 2-1/16" dimensions) for space-efficient installations and a pressure-sealing sleeve design to protect conduit connections from moisture and contaminants. The double-coated interior and exterior (blue urethane base with PVC topcoat) deliver enhanced protection against chemicals, humidity, and mechanical stress, making it ideal for harsh industrial settings, outdoor enclosures, or high-moisture areas. Certified to UL 514A for wet locations when used with gasketed covers and CSA C22.2 No.18, the FS1-B meets rigorous electrical safety standards. Applications include electrical panels, junction boxes, control cabinets, and conduit termination points where dead-end connections are required. The single-gang configuration accommodates standard switches, outlets, and other electrical devices, while the offset flat bracket (9/16" from face) ensures secure mounting on walls or panels. Custom color options are available on request for specialized applications. With a 15.6 cubic inch internal volume, this device box provides ample space for wiring while maintaining a compact footprint. Trust ABB Installation Products for reliable, code-compliant electrical infrastructure solutions.
