• Retrofit Projects - Upgrading existing electrical systems with reliable connections
• Maintenance Applications - Replacing worn or damaged connectors in existing installations

EMT Set Screw Connector System Benefits

EMT set screw connectors provide the most reliable and cost-effective method for joining electrical metallic tubing in commercial and industrial applications. Unlike compression fittings that can loosen over time, set screw connectors maintain their grip strength and provide consistent performance throughout the life of the installation. The steel construction offers superior durability compared to die-cast alternatives, while the non-insulated design ensures optimal grounding continuity for electrical safety.

Why Choose Steel Construction?

Steel EMT connectors deliver unmatched durability and longevity in demanding electrical environments. The robust steel construction resists impact damage, provides excellent thread strength, and maintains dimensional stability under varying temperature conditions. For electrical contractors who demand reliable performance and long-term value, Eaton Crouse-Hinds steel connectors represent the professional choice for critical electrical infrastructure projects.
