Cantex 51400 Series PVC Female Adapter, Threaded Conduit Fitting

The Cantex 51400 Series PVC Female Adapter is a family of conduit fittings engineered to transition rigid PVC conduit runs to threaded metal or PVC male fittings, hubs, and equipment entries. Molded from durable PVC, these female adapters provide a corrosion-resistant, non-conductive connection point well suited for electrical raceway systems where a threaded female termination is required. The 51400 Series is available across six models - 5140044, 5140047, 5140049, 5140050, 5140051, and 5140054 - covering a range of trade sizes to fit standard PVC conduit systems. Whether specifying one model or another from the 51400 Series, contractors and electricians can expect the same reliable PVC construction and dimensional standards across the entire product line.

Key Features

  • Trade Size Range: Available across the 51400 Series in sizes to match standard PVC conduit systems, with each model number corresponding to a specific trade size.
  • Durable Construction: Molded PVC material resists corrosion, moisture, and chemical exposure common in electrical conduit applications.
  • Female Adapter Configuration: Provides a threaded female connection for joining PVC conduit runs to male-threaded fittings, hubs, or equipment.
  • 51400 Series Design: Includes models 5140044, 5140047, 5140049, 5140050, 5140051, and 5140054, offering consistent dimensional standards across the family for reliable assembly regardless of size selected.
  • Lightweight, Non-Conductive Material: PVC construction simplifies handling and installation while eliminating concerns over electrical conductivity at the fitting.
  • Threaded Connection Point: Female threading allows secure mating with male-threaded conduit, hubs, and equipment entries without additional hardware.

Cantex 5140044 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What does the Cantex 51400 Series PVC female adapter actually do in a conduit run?
It terminates a run of rigid PVC conduit in a female threaded opening, so you can thread a male-threaded metal or PVC fitting, hub, or equipment entry straight into it. The conduit side solvent-welds into the PVC socket; the threaded side mates with male threads with no extra hardware. Molded PVC, so the connection is non-conductive and resists corrosion and moisture.
2) Is this a female adapter or a male adapter? I need to thread into a box hub.
The 51400 Series is a female adapter: the threads are on the inside. If your enclosure or box has a male-threaded hub sticking out, a female adapter is what you want. If the enclosure has a female threaded entry, you need a male terminal adapter instead, not this part.
3) Can I use a PVC female adapter to transition from PVC conduit to rigid metal conduit?
Yes, that is one of its intended uses. The 51400 Series female adapter takes the PVC run on the socket end and gives you a threaded female opening that a male-threaded metal fitting or threaded RMC can screw into. The fitting body stays PVC, so the joint itself is non-conductive and corrosion resistant, which is why it gets used where a metal-to-metal threaded joint would be at risk from moisture or chemicals.
4) What trade size is the Cantex 51400 female adapter listed at?
The size carried on record for the 51400 Series female adapter is 3 inch trade size. Trade size follows the model number, so the model you order is what fixes the size, and the 3 inch figure is the published size for this family.
5) Which model numbers are in the Cantex 51400 female adapter family?
Six: 5140044, 5140047, 5140049, 5140050, 5140051, and 5140054. Construction and dimensional standards are the same across all six, so you are choosing on size, not on build. Order by the exact model number, since that is what pins down which fitting you get.
6) Do I need any extra hardware or a locknut to make up a Cantex 51400 female adapter?
No extra hardware for the threaded side; the female threads mate directly with male-threaded conduit, hubs, or equipment entries. You will still need PVC solvent cement to make up the socket joint to your conduit, which is not part of the fitting.
7) Will a PVC female adapter hold up in a wet or corrosive industrial area?
Molded PVC resists corrosion, moisture, and the chemical exposure typical of electrical conduit work, which is the main reason these get specified over threaded metal fittings in plants, water treatment, and similar areas. Commercial and industrial raceway, new construction, and equipment entry points are the applications it is built around.
