Bridgeport Fittings BF-1161 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What size reductions are available in Bridgeport steel reducing bushings?
Fifteen reductions, running from 1/2 inch down to 3/8 inch (part 1160) up to 2 inch down to 1-1/2 inch (part 1175). In between: 3/4 to 1/2 (1161), 1 to 1/2 (1162), 1 to 3/4 (1163), 1-1/4 to 1/2, 3/4 and 1 (1164, 1165, 1166), 1-1/2 to 1/2, 3/4, 1 and 1-1/4 (1167 through 1170), and 2 inch down to 1/2, 1, 1-1/4 and 1-1/2 (1171, 1173, 1174, 1175). Order by the hub size you have and the conduit size you are running.
2) How does a reducing bushing work on an oversized conduit hub?
It threads into the larger female thread and gives you a smaller female thread to land your conduit or fitting in. So a 1-inch hub on a box or enclosure takes the 1162 bushing and becomes a 1/2-inch opening, or the 1163 to take 3/4-inch conduit. Bridgeport's steel version is threaded for rigid or IMC, and the zinc electroplated steel keeps the alignment and centering of the reduced opening true.
3) Can I use these bushings with EMT?
No. These are threaded reducing bushings for rigid and IMC conduit, which have field-cut or factory threads. EMT is unthreaded and uses set-screw or compression connectors instead, so you would need an EMT connector sized to your conduit rather than a reducing bushing.
4) Are Bridgeport reducing bushings steel or malleable iron?
Steel, with a zinc electroplated finish. In Bridgeport's reducing bushing line the steel bodies cover 1/2 inch through 2 inch reductions, which is the full range offered here; the 2-1/2 inch through 4 inch sizes are malleable iron instead. If your hub is larger than 2 inch, you need the malleable iron version, not these.
5) Will a reducing bushing fit inside a tight enclosure or gutter?
Height is 0.875 inch, so the bushing adds well under an inch of depth at the hub. That is usually clearance enough inside a box or wireway, but measure against your conductors and any internal components before you commit to a reduction rather than a properly sized hub.
6) Which reducing bushing do I need to land 3/4 inch rigid in a 1-1/2 inch hub?
Part 1168, the 1-1/2 inch to 3/4 inch steel bushing. If the same enclosure has other oversized hubs, the 1-1/2 inch family also covers 1/2 inch (1167), 1 inch (1169) and 1-1/4 inch (1170), so you can standardize on one size group across the panel.
7) Is the Cantex 5133330 PVC wallplate an alternative to a Bridgeport steel reducing bushing?
No. The Cantex 5133330 is a PVC single toggle switch wallplate, a device cover for a switch opening. The Bridgeport steel reducing bushing is a threaded fitting that reduces the size of internal female threads on rigid or IMC conduit, in sizes from 1/2 inch down to 3/8 inch up through 2 inch to 1 1/2 inch. The two do different jobs and neither substitutes for the other.
8) Will a zinc plated steel reducing bushing hold up outdoors or in a damp plant?
The zinc electroplated steel body is rust and corrosion resistant, which suits it to industrial conduit systems and general commercial work. Zinc plating is a coating over steel, so for continuously wet, coastal or chemically aggressive locations a heavier corrosion spec is the safer call.
9) I need a non-metallic fitting for a PVC system - will the zinc plated steel reducing bushing work?
The Bridgeport reducing bushing is steel with a zinc electro-plate finish, intended for threaded rigid or IMC conduit connections, so it is a metallic fitting rather than a non-metallic one. If your specification calls for PVC material, Cantex builds its wallplate line in a PVC series; for threaded steel conduit reductions the zinc plated steel bushing is the matching part.
