Q-Nect IP junction boxes with semi- transparent lids from Unicrimp


U


nicrimp, part of the Scolmore


Group of companies, offers a range of IP66- rated, weatherproof junction boxes with semi-transparent lids. The addition of the semi- transparent lid takes the IP Box to the next level, allowing you to see the inside connections without compromising the integrity of the enclosure. The Q-Nect IP66 junction box is designed to make installations more efficient. It can house four of the 3 Port Lever Connectors using the 360° detachable cradle and with a curved lid, it provides additional space for wires. The lid is locked using quarter turn fasteners. The semi-transparent lids are available on the IP66 Weatherproof Enclosure that is furnished with 4 X 3 Way Lever Connectors. The junction box features ten membrane entry points. Protection against moisture and dust is enhanced with the self-sealing membranes which provide a faster and more secure cable entry whilst at the same time maintaining the IP66 rating. Installers have the option of using up to eight M20 cable glands with the junction box. The M20 threaded entries with membrane ensure that the IP rating is maintained without needing to use any tools or locknuts. Multiple fixing options are available – either fixing directly to a wall using four screws into the pre- moulded holes in the base or using the detachable wall clip which requires just two screws. The junction boxes with semi-transparent lids are available in a black or anthracite grey finish, with


the anthracite grey colour option designed to match the Click Scolmore Aquip66 weatherproof socket and switch enclosures, which are also available with the same semi-transparent lids. A comprehensive Q-Nect brochure can be downloaded from the Unicrimp website – www.unicrimp. com - as well as from the Scolmore Group app.

“We know that for merchants and installers, time is everything,” says Lee Parsons, Managing Director


at Arctic Hayes. “That’s why we’ve built a catalogue that doesn’t just display products – it actively helps with understanding them. Whether advising a customer at the trade counter, ordering online, or working on-site, our new digital catalogue gives instant access to the information and support that’s needed to get the job done right, first time. “This is part of our ongoing investment in practical innovation – not just in the products we make, but


in the way we help people use them. We’re proud to be backing the trade with tools and resources that genuinely make a difference.” The new catalogue is available now on the Arctic Hayes website, free to access and ready to use on


desktop, tablet or mobile. It represents a core part of the brand’s wider strategy to support heating and plumbing professionals with the tools, knowledge and confidence they need, wherever they’re working. A hard copy is also available by contacting the company direct.
