Technical Specifications

This 1-1/2 inch trade size EMT coupling features zinc plated steel construction with four precision set screws for optimal connection security. The coupling measures 3 inches in length, 2 inches in width and height, with a compact 0.5 lb weight for easy handling during installation. Designed specifically for EMT conduit systems, it provides reliable electrical continuity while meeting NEC/CEC compliance standards for ordinary and non-hazardous locations.

Installation Process

1. Ensure EMT conduit ends are cut square and deburred for proper fit
2. Slide the coupling over the first EMT conduit section until centered
3. Insert the second EMT conduit section into the opposite end of the coupling
4. Tighten the first pair of set screws evenly to secure the first conduit section
5. Tighten the second pair of set screws evenly to secure the second conduit section
6. Verify both conduit sections are firmly secured and properly aligned

Applications

Perfect for:

• Commercial Buildings - Office complexes, retail centers, and healthcare facilities
• Industrial Facilities - Manufacturing plants, processing centers, and distribution warehouses
• Educational Institutions - Schools, universities, and training facilities
• Municipal Projects - Government buildings, public works, and infrastructure installations
• EMT Extensions - Connecting EMT conduit runs in straight-line applications
• Conduit Repairs - Replacing damaged conduit sections without complete rewiring
• Panel Connections - Extending EMT runs to electrical panels and distribution equipment
• Equipment Connections - Connecting EMT conduit to motor control centers and switchgear

EMT Coupling System Benefits

EMT set screw couplings provide superior installation efficiency compared to threaded connections, eliminating the need for conduit threading while maintaining excellent mechanical strength. The four-screw design ensures even pressure distribution, preventing conduit deformation and maintaining proper electrical continuity throughout the system. This coupling design is particularly valuable in applications where quick installation and reliable performance are essential.

Why Choose Zinc Plated Steel Construction?

Zinc plated steel construction offers the perfect balance of strength, corrosion resistance, and cost-effectiveness for EMT coupling applications. The zinc plating provides excellent protection against rust and corrosion, while the steel core delivers the mechanical strength needed for secure conduit connections. This material combination ensures long-term reliability in both indoor and outdoor electrical installations, making it the preferred choice of electrical contractors for professional-grade EMT systems.
