Bridgeport Fittings BPF-280-DC – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does a Bridgeport EMT combination coupling actually connect, EMT to EMT or EMT to flex?
It's a transition coupling: one end is a set screw end that grips EMT, the other side carries a locknut for the flex connection, so it joins EMT to flexible conduit rather than EMT to EMT. That's why every size is ordered as a pair of trade sizes, an EMT trade size and a flex trade size. If you need EMT to EMT, a straight set screw coupling is the fitting for that, not this one.
2) Which EMT and flex trade size combinations does the Bridgeport 280 series combination coupling come in?
Five combinations across the series. 1/2 inch EMT to 3/8 inch flex (280-DC, and 280-DCX with steel straps), 1/2 inch EMT to 1/2 inch flex (281-DC), 3/4 inch EMT to 3/4 inch flex (282-DC), 3/4 inch EMT to 1/2 inch flex (282-DCX with steel straps), and 1 inch EMT to 1 inch flex (283-DC). Note the step-down options: if you are dropping 3/4 EMT into 1/2 inch flex, that is the 282-DCX, and 1/2 EMT into 3/8 flex is the 280.
3) Is the Bridgeport EMT combination coupling UL Listed for a commercial inspection?
UL Listed under file E9391, and it meets NEMA FB-1. Those are the two things an electrical inspector or a spec reviewer on a commercial or institutional job typically wants named on the submittal for a conduit fitting.
4) Can I use one combination coupling size for both 1/2 and 3/4 inch EMT runs to standardize my MRO stock?
No, the EMT end is size specific. A 282-DC takes 3/4 inch EMT and won't accept 1/2 inch, and the 281-DC is built for 1/2 inch EMT. If you're stocking a maintenance shop that runs both, the two-line stock is 281-DC for 1/2 inch and 282-DC for 3/4 inch, with 283-DC added if you run 1 inch. All three are the same zinc die cast set screw design and the same UL file, E9391, so your submittal paperwork stays consistent across sizes.
5) What is the difference between the Bridgeport 280-DC and the 280-DCX?
The DCX version ships with steel straps; the standard DC does not. Both cover the same 1/2 inch EMT to 3/8 inch flex transition and both come 100 to a box. The DCX is what you want when the flex leg needs to be strapped off as part of the same install rather than picking up straps separately. Same thinking applies to the 282-DC versus the 282-DCX.
6) Will a zinc die cast set screw coupling hold up in a damp mechanical room or parking garage?
The body is zinc die cast, which is naturally corrosion resistant, so damp interior environments like mechanical rooms and service corridors are within what it's built for. Understand what a set screw fitting is, though: it grips the EMT with a screw, it is not a raintight or concrete-tight compression connection. Where the spec calls for a wet location or a poured slab, a compression fitting is the right choice instead.
7) What tool do I need to install a Bridgeport 282-DC combination coupling?
A flat blade screwdriver and a set of channel locks or a pair of pliers for the locknut. The set screw is a slotted head, so there's no hex key or specialty driver involved, and the locknut comes with the fitting. That matters when you're running a few hundred of these on a ceiling grid, one driver in the pouch handles the whole box.
8) Do I have to buy locknuts separately for the Bridgeport 280 series combination coupling?
No, the locknut is included with the coupling, Bridgeport's Legendary Locknut. You supply the EMT, the flexible conduit and a screwdriver. Nothing else is bundled, so if you also need the flex leg strapped, order the DCX version, which includes steel straps.
9) How many Bridgeport combination couplings come in a box?
Most are packed 100 per standard package: the 280-DC, 280-DCX, 282-DC, 282-DCX and 283-DC. The 281-DC, the 1/2 inch EMT to 1/2 inch flex, packs 250. Worth knowing before you write a PO if you are standardizing a job on one size.
10) Where is Bridgeport Fittings EMT combination coupling made?
Country of origin is China. That's the answer institutional and government buyers need when a bid carries a domestic sourcing or Buy America clause, since a zinc die cast fitting of foreign origin will not satisfy that line item.
