Middle Atlantic Afterset Insert 2 3/8IN H - 436-2-23/8

Middle Atlantic 436-2-23/8 In-Floor Afterset Insert 2-3/8 In

Overview

The Middle Atlantic 436-2-23/8 is an afterset insert for in-floor IPS duct and round service fitting applications. Measuring 2.38 in (60.3 mm) in diameter, this fitting is designed to be installed after the floor finish is laid — the defining characteristic of an afterset approach, which eliminates the need to cut or adjust the fitting opening during flooring work. If you're roughing in conduit pathways for structured cabling, AV infrastructure, or low-voltage runs through raised or poured floors, this insert slots into an existing service fitting opening once the finish surface is complete.

TAA compliance is confirmed for this SKU, making the 436-2-23/8 suitable for federal government facilities, GSA schedule projects, and any deployment where the Trade Agreements Act governs procurement. For integrators working on government buildings, courthouses, or federally funded installations, that verification matters at the specification stage — not after the order ships.

Key Features

• 2.38 in (60.3 mm) Diameter: Sized to fit the 2-3/8 in round IPS service fitting opening. Confirm your floor box or duct rough-in matches this diameter before ordering — afterset inserts are not adjustable once installed.
• Afterset Installation: Designed to be dropped in post-flooring, which keeps the opening protected during construction and avoids damage to the insert during the flooring phase. This sequencing matters on commercial jobs with multiple finish trades on-site.
• TAA Compliant: Verified compliant with the Trade Agreements Act for this SKU, supporting procurement on government, education, and other publicly funded projects where TAA is a contract requirement.
• Middle Atlantic In-Floor System Compatibility: Part of the Middle Atlantic in-floor systems line, designed to integrate with the corresponding service fitting and duct components in that family. Mixing components from different manufacturers in the same floor box assembly is not recommended — verify the mating fitting part number before finalizing your BOM.

Integration and Compatibility

The 436-2-23/8 is part of Middle Atlantic's in-floor infrastructure portfolio, which covers cable management and service fitting solutions for commercial AV and low-voltage installations. It is intended for use with the matching 2-3/8 in round service fitting in the same product family. If your project specifies a different diameter opening or a rectangular service fitting, this insert will not fit — cross-reference the floor box or duct fitting part number before procurement. For projects requiring multiple service points, review the full Middle Atlantic in-floor catalog to ensure consistent component pairing across all floor penetrations. Integrators planning structured cabling pathways should also review relevant rack and enclosure infrastructure to ensure the floor-to-rack run is fully coordinated.
