Stainless Steel Distribution Box: Key Features & Typical Use
Surface or Recessed from the Same Family
The JXFS is offered in both surface-mounted and recessed versions, with the recessed depth 20 mm shallower than the surface-mounted equivalent. That single 20 mm difference is what allows the same enclosure family to be used in a plant room where the box sits on the wall and in a corridor where the door has to finish flush.Stainless Steel Where Painted Steel Fails
In laundries, food processing areas, wash-down zones and coastal buildings, a painted steel enclosure rusts at the door edge and the gland plate first. The JXFS uses 201 or 304 stainless steel, so the shell does not depend on a coating that can be scratched during installation or attacked by cleaning chemicals.Six Sizes with Proper Sealing
Six models cover 250 x 300 x 160 mm through to 800 x 1000 x 200 mm, and every size carries built-in sealing strips that resist water, rain and dust. Breakers, residual current devices and modular protection mount on a detachable base plate, so a board can be prepared away from the wall and installed as a complete assembly.Built for Straightforward Maintenance
Because the base plate is detachable and the enclosure is a plain box with a single door, a later change to the circuit list is a matter of re-drilling a plate rather than replacing the enclosure. That keeps the visual appearance of a finished wall unchanged while the electrical installation behind it is modified.Stainless Steel Distribution Box Specifications & Technical Data

JXFS — Stainless Steel Distribution Box, Surface or Recessed
The choice between surface mounting and recessing usually comes down to where the box is seen from. In a corridor or a finished office wall the door has to sit flush; in a plant room there is no reason to cut into the wall. The JXFS provides both options in one family, with the recessed version 20 mm shallower than the surface-mounted one.This product is also described as a stainless steel consumer unit enclosure, a stainless distribution board or a flush-mounted steel breaker box, and it is compared with plastic and painted steel boards. Because it is specified for rooms where coatings fail, the questions worth asking a manufacturer are which stainless grade is used, whether the recessed rebate is formed in house, and whether the door hardware is stainless rather than plated.The enclosure is fabricated from 201 or 304 stainless steel with built-in sealing strips for water, rain and dust resistance, which makes it suitable for laundries, wash-down areas, food processing rooms and coastal buildings where a painted steel box would begin to rust at the door edge and gland plate.Six sizes cover 250 x 300 x 160 mm through to 800 x 1000 x 200 mm, taking breakers, residual current devices and modular protection on a detachable base plate. Knockouts, custom printing and complete-set assembly with specified component brands are supported, so the box can be delivered ready to terminate.Factory-Direct Stainless Steel Distribution Box Manufacturer & OEM / ODM

Stainless Steel Distribution Box Buying Guide from the Manufacturer
For a stainless steel board the first decision is usually mounting method and environment. These are the points we confirm before production.
- Confirm whether the box will be surface mounted or recessed, and the depth available in the wall.
- Confirm the environment, including humidity or chemical exposure, to select 201 or 304 stainless steel.
- Confirm the breakers and modular protection to be fitted so the base plate can be drilled.
- Confirm the cable entry direction and the number and size of knockouts required.
- Send the circuit schedule, wall construction detail and any required identification.
- Approve the drawing, then production, inspection and dispatch.

What is a stainless steel distribution box?
It is an indoor distribution board for domestic, commercial and light industrial circuits, fabricated from 201 or 304 grade stainless steel rather than from coated mild steel. The JXFS is offered in surface-mounted and recessed versions in six sizes from 250 x 300 x 160 mm to 800 x 1000 x 200 mm, taking breakers, residual current devices and modular protection on a detachable base plate.When should I use a stainless steel distribution box?
When the room attacks coatings: laundries and wash-down areas, food processing rooms, swimming pool plant rooms, commercial kitchens, workshops with chemical exposure and coastal buildings. In these places a painted steel enclosure fails at the door edge, the hinge and the gland plate first, and once moisture reaches the substrate it rusts from the inside out.What is the difference between surface-mounted and recessed distribution boxes?
A surface-mounted box sits on the finished wall, so no cutting is needed and the board can be added during a retrofit. A recessed box sits inside the wall and finishes flush, which is preferred in corridors and finished rooms. On the JXFS the recessed version is 20 mm shallower than the surface-mounted one, and both use the same cover and internal layout.Who manufactures stainless steel distribution boards?
Most suppliers in this segment also build consumer units and industrial enclosures, and the material grade plus the door furniture is where quotations differ most. Ask which grade of stainless steel is supplied, whether the rebate for the recessed version is formed by the manufacturer, and whether hinges and locks are stainless steel or plated. LYE manufactures the JXFS in Wenzhou on our own fabrication lines and holds ISO9001, ISO14001, ISO45001, CCC, CE and TUV certification.How much does a stainless steel distribution box cost?
Indicative factory-direct pricing is roughly US$50 to US$600 per box, depending on the size, the grade of stainless steel, whether the recessed or surface version is required, whether the board is supplied assembled, and the quantity ordered. Because material dominates the cost, the grade decision and the mounting version are the two choices that should be fixed before comparing quotations.

Use a distribution box for final circuits and compact branch protection; use a cabinet when the project needs larger incoming capacity, more feeder groups, metering, busbars or greater internal separation. The final choice should be checked against the single-line diagram, device list, available installation space and local project rules.
Provide the device schedule, circuit quantity, component dimensions, cable-entry direction, mounting method and required spare capacity. LYE also reviews door clearance, bending radius, heat-producing devices and the usable depth behind the mounting plate before confirming an enclosure size.
Start with the actual exposure to dust, rain, cleaning water and accidental contact rather than choosing the highest number by default. Cable entries, ventilation, door seals and installation workmanship affect the finished assembly, so the target rating and verification basis must be confirmed for the specific product and project.
Coated or galvanized steel is commonly considered for general indoor service, stainless steel for humid or corrosive locations, and engineering plastic for lightweight non-metallic applications. Material grade, thickness, UV exposure, chemical contact and earthing requirements must be confirmed against the installation environment.
Share the component heat load, ambient temperature, solar exposure, duty cycle and allowable internal temperature. LYE can then review enclosure volume, spacing, ventilation or fan provisions, sun shields, heaters or drainage details; the final thermal design remains tied to the installed equipment and site conditions.
Yes. A dimensioned drawing is preferred, but a physical sample and clear reference photographs can also start the review. Material, thickness, openings, hardware, finish, labels, inspection points and packing are recorded before sampling or repeat production.
PDF and common 2D CAD drawings are suitable for most enclosure enquiries, while 3D files can help with complex assemblies. Include a revision number, units, tolerances and component references; file compatibility and any missing production information will be confirmed during review.
A sample or first article can be arranged for a new or customized product. The approval plan should identify dimensions, openings, fit, appearance, hardware, labels and packaging, together with the sample cost and timing agreed for the actual order.
Available documents may include approved drawings, packing lists, dimensional or appearance inspection records, product data and certificates applicable to the confirmed model. Destination-specific declarations or third-party testing must be requested before order placement so availability and scope can be verified.
Lead time is confirmed after the product scope, quantity, sample requirement and finish are known. Packing is reviewed against product weight, surface protection, destination and shipping method; if an issue is found after delivery, send the order reference, label, photographs and quantity affected so it can be traced and reviewed.
