American Fittings SS52US – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What trade sizes do American Fittings EMT set screw connectors come in?
Six trade sizes cover the common EMT range: 1/2 inch (SS50US), 3/4 inch (SS51US), 1 inch (SS52US), 1-1/4 inch (SS53US), 1-1/2 inch (SS54US), and 2 inch (SS55US). Order by the nominal EMT trade size you are terminating, not by the outside diameter of the tube.
2) Are these EMT connectors concrete-tight or raintight, or just for dry indoor use?
These are steel set screw connectors, a mechanical dry-location fitting. A set screw connector is not a compression fitting, so for wet locations or direct burial in concrete the spec typically calls for a compression (raintight/concrete-tight) EMT connector instead. Use the set screw type for interior exposed and concealed EMT runs in commercial, industrial, and institutional work.
3) Will a set screw EMT connector satisfy an equipment grounding path requirement?
The connectors are UL Listed to UL 514B and UL 467. UL 467 is the grounding and bonding equipment standard, which is why this fitting is listed for use where the raceway serves as part of the equipment grounding path. For a spec job, the same listing plus NEMA FB 1 and Federal Spec A-A-50553 compliance is usually what the submittal reviewer is looking for.
4) Do these connectors meet Buy American requirements for a federal or municipal project?
Made in the USA, with Buy American Act and ARRA compliance both stated, plus Federal Spec A-A-50553. Country of origin is the United States. That combination is what government, school district, and municipal procurement packages normally ask for on EMT fittings.
5) What is the difference between a set screw EMT connector and a compression one?
The retention method. A set screw connector clamps the EMT with a screw driven against the tube wall, which makes it fast to install and easy to back off and re-seat. A compression connector squeezes a ring around the tube and is the type used where the fitting must be raintight or concrete-tight. Both terminate EMT into a box with a locknut; the set screw version is the standard choice for indoor commercial runs.
6) Is a steel EMT connector required, or can I use die-cast zinc instead?
These are steel bodied. Many specs for commercial and industrial work call out steel EMT fittings specifically rather than die-cast, because steel holds up better to handling and impact in exposed runs. If your drawing says steel set screw EMT connectors, the American Fittings SS series answers it directly.
7) Can I standardize a whole building on one line of EMT set screw connectors?
Yes, and that is the practical reason to buy the SS series as a set. One family covers 1/2 inch through 2 inch EMT, all steel, all UL Listed to the same standards, so branch circuits and feeders terminate with fittings from the same line. For an MRO crib, stocking SS50US through SS55US covers the whole EMT range most commercial buildings use.
8) Do these connectors satisfy RoHS and REACH requirements for a healthcare or LEED project?
RoHS, REACH, and California Prop 65 compliance are all stated, along with Conflict of Minerals certification. Those are the environmental and sourcing declarations most often requested on healthcare, education, and sustainability-driven submittals for electrical fittings.
9) What UNSPSC code should I use to requisition these EMT connectors?
UNSPSC 39131706 is the code carried for these steel EMT set screw connectors. That is the value procurement teams need when loading the part into an ERP or punchout catalog.
