Flanged Joint Spigot Joint Screwed Joint: Junction Boxes

Flanged, spigot, and screwed joints are commonly used junctions for enclosures, conduit entries, and cable glands. Flanged joints have machined surfaces that make contact between a cover and base, creating a tight seal when bolted. Spigot joints provide flame sealing through a minimum thread engagement length. Screwed joints require longer thread engagement for larger enclosures to ensure adequate sealing.
