What TayMac is known for
TayMac is the Hubbell brand focused on weatherproof electrical products used to protect outlets, switches and conduit terminations in outdoor and wet locations. The brand’s best‑known items are “in‑use” weatherproof receptacle covers, heavy‑duty metallic covers, plastic expandable covers, and a broad line of conduit bodies and weatherproof boxes. TayMac products are positioned for installers who need durable, code‑compliant protection for receptacles, GFCIs, and conduit runs in commercial, industrial and residential exterior applications.
Main product families and technologies
- Weatherproof In‑Use Covers: Standard and Extra Duty® metallic models plus nonmetallic expandable covers designed to remain weather resistant while a plug is connected. RaynGuard® and Extra Duty® series emphasize die‑cast metal construction, lockable tabs and pre‑attached gaskets.
- Conduit Bodies and Assemblies: A full range of conduit bodies (C, LB, LL, LR, T, SLB) for Rigid/IMC, EMT and combo applications. The U•Conduit® 10‑in‑1 universal conduit body reduces SKUs by using interchangeable panels and self‑aligning covers.
- Weatherproof Boxes and Deck Kits: Plastic and metallic outdoor boxes for new work and retrofit installations, including deck outlet enclosures with GFCI kits.
- Wallplates and Covers: Standard, medium and jumbo sizes in plastic and metal for specialty exterior and security applications.
Common applications
- Commercial buildings and storefronts: exterior receptacles for signage, lighting and maintenance equipment.
- Industrial yards and plants: conduit bodies for directional changes and pulling access in conduit runs.
- Facilities and maintenance: deck outlets, patio GFCI boxes for campuses, hotels and multifamily housing.
- Contractors and OEMs: inventory‑saving products such as U•Conduit® and expandable covers.
How Safsale helps procurement and model identification
- Structured listings: catalog/model number, gang size, material, color, depth and trade size are displayed to match install needs.
- Images and views: photos verify hinge style, screw type, and orientation to reduce misorders.
- Manufacturer PDFs and spec sheets: spec documents linked from listings provide dimensions, UPCs and compliance data for approval and audit trails.
- Reviews and Q&A: installer feedback and Q&A give real‑world fit and compatibility guidance.
- Cross‑reference language: listings include common catalog variants and trade size descriptors so buyers can precisely request replacements.
Sourcing and replacement tips
- Always order by full catalog/model number and confirm trade size, gang count and depth.
- Match material and rating (metallic vs nonmetallic, Extra Duty, NEMA/UL listings) to project specs.
- Confirm device compatibility for GFCI or duplex modules and allowable plug profiles.
- Consider universal items (U•Conduit®, expandable covers) to simplify inventory strategy.
- Include manufacturer, catalog ID, series, material, trade size and listing details on purchase orders for clarity.
Practical buyer workflow
Capture a photo and notes from the field, match attributes on Safsale to a TayMac catalog/model, open the manufacturer spec PDF to confirm compliance and dimensions, then place the order with exact catalog IDs and requested pack quantities. This reduces returns and ensures installs meet the specified code and mechanical requirements.
