Technical Specifications

This connector features a 2" trade size with steel construction and insulated throat design. The straight connector type provides direct EMT conduit connections with dual set screw tightening mechanism. Product dimensions are 2.44" width x 2.44" height x 2.38" depth, weighing 0.78 pounds. Designed for ordinary/non-hazardous locations with NEC/CEC compliance standards. The insulated design protects conductors while maintaining secure mechanical connection through the dual screw system.

Installation Process

1. Verify EMT conduit end is cut square and deburred to prevent conductor damage
2. Insert EMT conduit fully into connector until it reaches the internal stop
3. Tighten first set screw firmly using appropriate screwdriver or hex key
4. Tighten second set screw to ensure maximum holding power and grounding continuity
5. Verify connection is secure by gently pulling on conduit to test retention
6. Complete electrical connection to equipment, panel, or junction box as required

Applications

Perfect for:

• Commercial Buildings - Office complexes, retail centers, hospitals, and educational facilities
• Industrial Facilities - Manufacturing plants, processing facilities, and heavy equipment installations
• Electrical Panel Connections - Main distribution panels, sub-panels, and motor control centers
• Equipment Terminations - Switchgear, transformers, and large electrical equipment connections
• High-Capacity Circuits - Feeder circuits, service entrances, and distribution systems
• Municipal Infrastructure - Government buildings, schools, and public facility electrical systems
• Data Center Applications - Server room electrical distribution and UPS system connections
• Healthcare Facilities - Hospital electrical systems requiring reliable power distribution

EMT Connector System Benefits

EMT set screw connectors provide superior installation efficiency compared to threaded connections while maintaining excellent mechanical strength. The set screw design eliminates the need for threading conduit ends, reducing installation time and labor costs. Steel construction offers enhanced durability over aluminum alternatives in high-stress applications, while the straight configuration maintains clean conduit runs essential for professional electrical installations.

Why Choose Insulated Throat Design?

The insulated throat design provides critical conductor protection during wire pulling and long-term service. This feature prevents conductor insulation damage that can occur with non-insulated connectors, reducing the risk of ground faults and electrical failures. Combined with Eaton Crouse-Hinds' century of electrical innovation, this connector delivers the reliability and safety that electrical professionals demand for critical installations.
