To Determine Receptacle Size and Stud Length Required

Step 1: Find the Support Thickness Range that applies to your Support Thickness in the table. The Part Number of the receptacle needed is stated to the right of your applicable Support Thickness Range.

Support Thickness
The thickness of the material where the receptacle will be mounted. See Figure below.

0.149-0.165 3.78-4.19 4604-6-BK 0.228 5.79
Step 2: Calculate the Panel Gap Thickness. Then, in the table below, find the column that applies to the receptacle you selected above and find the Panel Gap Thickness range that applies to your calculated Panel Gap Thickness. The stud length needed is to the far right of your applicable Panel Gap Thickness range.
Panel Thickness
The thickness of the material that contains the stud.
Gap Thickness
The combined thickness of the receptacle top flange (0.055" (1.40 mm)) and stud retainer thickness. These parts may be nested into recessed holes.
