Product Overview
The BOWO plastic latch waterproof junction box is an ABS enclosure series for electrical wiring, connection points and compact electrical components. In the BOWO product catalogue, this enclosure family is identified as Plastic Snap Fastener. The latch-style closure provides convenient cover access while maintaining a compact enclosure structure for industrial and outdoor electrical applications.
The series is rated IP67 for ingress protection and IK08 for impact resistance. The catalogue also lists CE and RoHS compliance. Gray-cover and transparent-cover configurations are available, and BOWO can prepare custom opening positions according to project requirements.

When selecting a size, consider not only the outside dimensions but also the internal component layout, cable-entry position and space required for wiring. If machining is required, provide the hole dimensions and positions together with the enclosure size.
Gray Cover or Transparent Cover?
The same plastic latch enclosure family is offered with gray and transparent cover configurations. A gray cover is suitable where internal visibility is not required, while a transparent cover can be selected when visual checking of internal components is useful. The catalogue confirms both cover options across the standard size range.
Plastic Latch vs Metal Latch Junction Boxes
BOWO also offers a separate metal snap fastener enclosure series. Both structures provide latch-style cover access, but the closure material is different. Selection should be based on the enclosure specification, installation environment and project requirements.
| Selection Point | Plastic Latch | Metal Latch |
|---|---|---|
| Latch Material | Plastic | Metal |
| Cover Access | Latch-style opening | Latch-style opening |
| Product Family | Plastic Snap Fastener | Metal Snap Fastener |
| Selection Basis | Model specification and project environment | Model specification and project environment |

Applications
Industrial Equipment and Automation
Plastic latch junction boxes can provide protected enclosure space for wiring connections and compact electrical components around machinery and automated equipment. The IP67 rating is useful where the enclosure may be exposed to dust or water during normal installation conditions.
See BOWO's waterproof electrical enclosures for industrial automation and machinery for additional application guidance.
Outdoor Electrical Connections
The catalogue positions the ABS enclosure for outdoor conditions requiring waterproof, dustproof and anti-corrosion performance. The final installation should still consider cable-entry sealing, mounting direction and the complete enclosure assembly.
Monitoring and Communication Equipment
Gray or transparent cover options allow the enclosure to be matched to different monitoring, communication and auxiliary electrical layouts. Transparent-cover versions can be useful where visual inspection of internal equipment is required.
Custom Openings and Project Configuration
The catalogue confirms support for custom opening positions. For OEM and equipment projects, provide the required enclosure size together with hole diameter, hole position, cable-entry direction and the components to be mounted. This allows the enclosure preparation to be reviewed before production.
- Custom opening positions
- Cable-entry preparation
- Gray or transparent cover selection
- Other enclosure colors for larger-quantity orders
How to Select the Right Size
Start with the internal component and wiring layout rather than selecting the enclosure only by its outside dimensions. Confirm the required IP protection, the number and size of cable entries, cover preference and available mounting space before placing an order.
- Choose the enclosure dimensions according to the components and wiring space required.
- Confirm gray or transparent cover according to inspection and visibility requirements.
- Confirm the IP67 requirement against the actual installation environment.
- Prepare cable-entry information if custom openings are required.
- Provide drawings when hole positions or project-specific machining must be confirmed before production.
