Allied Tube & Conduit SC50-ICRKON – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size EMT does the Allied Tube & Conduit SC50-ICRKON connector fit?
The SC50-ICRKON is a 1/2 inch EMT set screw connector. It terminates 1/2 inch electrical metallic tubing into a box or enclosure, and the set screw clamps the tubing rather than compressing a ferrule. For other trade sizes you need the matching connector, not this one.
2) Can I use this set screw connector in a concrete pour?
Allied Tube & Conduit rates the set screw connector as concrete tight when taped. That means the joint will keep wet concrete out only if you tape the connection before the pour. Untaped, it is not a concrete tight fitting.
3) Will a set screw connector work for wet or outdoor EMT runs?
No. A set screw fitting like the SC50-ICRKON is for dry indoor locations. Where the run is outdoors, damp, or wet, the EMT should be terminated with a raintight compression connector instead. In a slab, the set screw version is acceptable only when the joint is taped, which the manufacturer lists as concrete tight when taped.
4) Why choose an insulated throat EMT connector instead of a plain one?
The insulated throat on the SC50-ICRKON puts a smooth non-metallic collar at the opening where the conductors pass into the box, so the wire insulation is not dragged across a cut steel edge while pulling. Many jobs and inspectors require an insulated throat or a bushing on connectors feeding conductors; with this version the insulation is built in, so there is no separate bushing to buy or install.
5) Does the SC50-ICRKON come with the set screw already installed?
Yes. The screws are pre-set and staked from the factory on the 1/2 inch through 2 inch sizes, so the 1/2 inch SC50-ICRKON arrives with its tri-head screw in place and captive. No loose screws to sort on the ladder.
6) Is this connector steel or die cast?
The Allied Tube & Conduit set screw connector is built with heavy steel walls, not a zinc die cast body. For MRO and institutional buyers standardizing a stockroom, that is the difference to flag on the purchase order, since die cast fittings of the same trade size look similar in the bin.
7) What driver do I need for the set screws on this 1/2 inch EMT connector?
A tri-head screw is used on the 1/2 inch through 2 inch fittings, so the 1/2 inch SC50-ICRKON takes a tri-drive bit (it will also accept a flat blade in the slot). Allied moves to hex head screws only on the 2-1/2 inch through 4 inch sizes.
