Electrical Switch Box Galvanized Steel 7x7x4.7 cm, 1.2 mm Thickness | Alrouf for electrical accessories manufacturer

Precise Technical Specifications for Metal-Coated Electrical Switch Boxes (BB2-0B3)

A metal-coated electrical switch box from Al-Rofa is not merely a cover; it is a protective engineering shield. The product is crafted from galvanized steel with a precise thickness of 1.2 mm, ensuring an ideal balance between lightweight design and high durability. Standard dimensions are 7×7×4.7 cm, facilitating easy installation within walls without the need to enlarge openings.

In the Saudi environment, where temperatures exceed 45°C and sandstorms frequently occur, ordinary plastic materials fail rapidly. This is where zinc in the coating plays a vital role, acting as an effective barrier against oxidation and moisture, thereby extending the lifespan of electrical components for many years.

Why Choose Al-Rofa Over Plastic Competitors?

A common question among engineers in Riyadh and Dammam: What is the fundamental difference?

• Thermal Resistance: Plastic may warp or crack under thermal stress, whereas galvanized steel maintains its stability.
• Electrical Safety: Metal provides superior insulation of wires against toxic moisture that could seep through microscopic cracks in plastic.
• Lifespan: In heavy-duty industrial projects, the metal box lasts for decades without corrosion, while plastic boxes require periodic replacement.

Quick Installation Guide (How-to)

To install metal-coated electrical switch boxes correctly:

1. Carefully remove the old plastic panel.
2. Enlarge the wall opening to fit the dimensions 7×7 cm.
3. Use the included screws with appropriate fasteners to secure the metal box.
4. Insert wires into the side openings, ensuring no direct contact between wires and adjacent wires.
