Arlington Industries 457 Insulated Metal Grounding Bushing

The Arlington Industries 457 is an insulated metal grounding bushing available in trade sizes from 3" through 4", designed to protect conductor insulation at conduit terminations while providing a reliable path to ground. Built from durable metal construction with an integral insulating liner, this grounding bushing is a staple component for electricians working with rigid or IMC conduit systems that require both mechanical protection and electrical continuity. Sold in packages of 5 pieces, the 457 is well suited for larger conduit runs found in commercial, industrial, and institutional electrical installations where code-compliant grounding and conductor protection are essential at every termination point.

Key Features

  • Trade Size Range: Offered in 3" and 4" sizes to match this termination fitting to larger-diameter rigid and IMC conduit runs common in commercial and industrial work.
  • Durable Metal Construction: Metal body provides strength and long-term durability at the conduit termination, standing up to the demands of ongoing installation and service conditions.
  • Insulated Design: An integral insulating liner shields conductor insulation from abrasion against the sharp edges of the conduit end, helping prevent nicks, cuts, or wear that could compromise wire insulation over time.
  • Grounding Function: Provides a bonded, low-resistance connection at the conduit termination, supporting a continuous equipment grounding path as required for safe electrical systems.
  • Package Quantity: Sold in packages of 5 pieces, giving electricians and contractors enough bushings on hand to finish multiple conduit terminations per job.
  • Professional-Grade Fitting: Designed as a straightforward, purpose-built accessory for electricians and contractors who need a dependable bushing for finishing conduit runs at panels, boxes, and enclosures.
  • Made in the USA: Manufactured in the United States, supporting consistent quality control for demanding electrical installations.

Arlington Industries 459 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What trade sizes does the Arlington 457 insulated grounding bushing come in, and which part number is which?
Two sizes. The 3 inch bushing is part number 457 and the 4 inch is part number 459. Both are the same insulated metal grounding bushing, just sized to the conduit. Order by the trade size of the rigid or IMC conduit you are terminating, not the conductor size.
2) Is the Arlington 457 a metal bushing or plastic, and where is the insulation?
Metal body with an integral insulating liner. The metal gives you the mechanical strength and the bonded path at the conduit end; the liner is what the conductors bear against, so insulation is not dragged over the sharp edge of the conduit. That is different from an all-plastic insulating bushing, which protects the wire but does nothing for bonding.
3) Should I use a grounding bushing or just a plain insulated bushing on my conduit termination?
If the termination needs to carry the equipment grounding path, use the grounding type. The Arlington 457 does both jobs: it bonds the conduit termination for a continuous grounding path and protects conductor insulation at the same point. A plain insulated bushing only does the second. Typical case for the grounding version is a rigid or IMC run landing at a panelboard or enclosure where bonding has to be established at the entry.
4) Will the Arlington 457 work on rigid and IMC conduit?
Yes, rigid and IMC are the systems it is built for, in 3 inch and 4 inch trade sizes. Those are threaded conduits, so the bushing threads onto the conduit end at the box or enclosure. It is not the fitting for EMT, which is not threaded.
5) Do I get one bushing or a box when I order the Arlington 457?
They ship five pieces per package. That covers multiple terminations on the same job, so a panel or enclosure with several large conduit entries can usually be finished from one box.
6) Are Arlington 457 grounding bushings made in the USA for a Buy American job?
Country of origin is the United States. That matters on federally funded and institutional work where domestic-origin electrical material is specified.
7) Do I need to order a separate lug or grounding conductor with these bushings?
The bushing itself is the termination fitting. The bonding jumper or grounding conductor that runs from the bushing to the ground bar or enclosure is a separate item and is not part of the 5-piece package. Plan that wire and any lugs into your material list alongside the bushings.
8) I'm standardizing the grounding fittings across a building. Can I use the same part on 3 inch and 4 inch runs?
No, the bushing is size-specific. Use the 457 on 3 inch conduit and the 459 on 4 inch. The construction and the insulated liner are the same across both, so the install method and appearance stay consistent from opening to opening, but each size needs its own part number and its own 5-piece box.
