Metallics IPB250 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) Can I use the IPB250 insulated bushing on EMT?
No, not directly. The IPB250 threads onto threaded rigid conduit. EMT is unthreaded, so it has no male thread for the bushing to screw onto, you would be using a connector with an insulated throat instead. For a threaded rigid or IMC end at 2-1/2 inch, the IPB250 is the part.
2) How many Metallics IPB250 bushings come in a pack, and can I buy just a few?
The IPB250 is sold in a jar of 50, and 50 is the order minimum. There is no break-pack option, so a single bushing or a handful is not orderable, you take the full jar.
3) Do the Metallics IPB250 bushings meet Buy American requirements for a government or institutional job?
Yes. The IPB250 is flagged Buy American compliant and ARRA compliant, with country of origin listed as the United States. That covers the documentation most public-sector and federally funded electrical specs ask for on fittings.
4) What does an insulated plastic bushing like the Metallics IPB250 actually do on a conduit run?
It caps the cut end of the conduit with a smoothly rounded insulating surface so conductors are not chafed or nicked as they are pulled through and as they sit in service. The IPB250 is plastic, so the bushing body itself is the insulator, no separate liner involved.
5) Is a plastic insulated bushing the right choice, or should I use an insulated metallic bushing instead?
The IPB250 is an all-plastic bushing, which is the usual pick for protecting conductors at the end of a threaded rigid run where the bushing is not being relied on for bonding or mechanical abuse. Where the end of the conduit needs a metal body, for example where the fitting takes physical loading or the spec calls for a metallic insulated bushing with a plastic throat insert, a plastic bushing is not a substitute. Check the drawing wording: if it says insulated metallic bushing, this is not that part.
6) How much does a jar of 50 Metallics IPB250 bushings weigh and how big is the package?
The jar runs 3.5 lbs and measures 10 x 8 x 3 inches. Easy to carry in a van stock bin or stage on a cart for a multi-floor pull.
