I'm looking for a weather proof non-metallic type FS box that has a snap on device cover,the outlet is fastened to the FS box,but the cover snaps on the box over the outlet.No screws are used. This product was used in a hog confinement,need to find a replacement cover.These are vertical style flip covers.

Many manufactures make this type of enclosure. Pass and Seymour come to mind first.Cat #WIUC10-G

Why do you have to use a snap on cover? If the receptacle is mounted securly to the fs box a flip type wp cover that mounts with one 6-32 should work.Are you worried that the hogs will break the device?

bnb,

Seems like the original question is about matching the hardware in an existing installation. Sourcing the replacement part may result in a wait on the supplier and/or shipping, but save on labor in the field and result in a match to what's already there.

I'm guessing the absence or minimizing of steel in the presence of urea is a good thing.
