Technical Specifications
This condulet features 3/4" trade size threading compatible with rigid, IMC, and EMT conduit systems. The Feraloy iron alloy construction provides exceptional durability while maintaining a lightweight 1.2 lb profile. NEMA 12 environmental rating ensures reliable protection in ordinary locations. The C-shape configuration measures 6" in length, 1.63" in height, and 1.56" in width, making it ideal for space-constrained installations. Form 7 design includes threaded cover with gasket seal for secure environmental protection and easy maintenance access.
Installation Process
- Verify conduit alignment and ensure proper support spacing per NEC/CEC requirements
- Thread conduit connections hand-tight, then wrench-tighten an additional 1-2 turns for secure connection
- Install conductors through the condulet body, utilizing the C-shape access for easy wire routing
- Apply appropriate joint compound or thread sealant to cover threads if required for environmental protection
- Install cover with gasket, ensuring proper alignment and secure threading
- Verify all connections are tight and environmental sealing is complete before energizing
Applications
Perfect for:
- Commercial Buildings - Office complexes, retail facilities, hospitals, and educational institutions
- Industrial Facilities - Manufacturing plants, processing facilities, and warehouse distribution centers
- Equipment Connections - Motor control centers, switchgear, and electrical panel connections
- Conduit Direction Changes - 90-degree routing changes in rigid conduit systems
- Junction Points - Wire splicing and connection access in conduit runs
