Product notes
SCE Industrial Control Panel Enclosure 8N806LP 8" x 8" x 6" Nema-1
For projects where a used panel enclosure is acceptable, this SCE unit keeps the entry point at USD 26.87. The listing gives you a square 8" x 8" x 6" box with a Nema-1 rating and a panel-mount style. Its Country of Origin is listed as the United States. The main limitation is condition: it's a used unit that may show minor scrapes, and some units have plastic hinges while others have metal hinges, plus two different ANSI Danger stickers. If your control panel layout benefits from the 6-inch depth and you can accept the used state, this is the more cost-effective route.
SCE SCE-806ELJ. ENCLOSURE Type 12 8"X6"X4" INDUSTRIAL CONTROL PANEL Nema 3R

Its listed attributes include a Type 12 / Nema 3R body in gray, measuring 8" x 6" x 4", with the brand listed as Saginaw Control & Engineering. The listing also describes four-pole construction, and the model is referenced as Type 12,4 Enclosure. The trade-off is the higher price and a shallower profile than the 8N806LP's depth.
