Technical Specifications
This 2-inch trade size EMT coupling features zinc plated steel construction with four precision set screws for maximum holding power. The coupling measures 3.25 inches in length with a 2.44-inch width and height, weighing 0.77 pounds for substantial durability. Designed specifically for EMT conduit systems, it provides reliable connections in ordinary/non-hazardous locations while maintaining full NEC/CEC compliance. The zinc plating offers superior corrosion resistance compared to standard steel fittings, ensuring long-term performance in both indoor and outdoor electrical installations.
Installation Process
- Verify conduit ends are cut square and deburred for proper insertion
- Insert first EMT conduit section fully into one end of the coupling
- Tighten the two set screws on that end to secure the first conduit section
- Insert the second EMT conduit section into the opposite end of the coupling
- Tighten the remaining two set screws to complete the secure connection
- Verify both conduit sections are properly seated and all screws are tight
Applications
Perfect for:
- Commercial Buildings - Office complexes, retail centers, hospitals, and educational facilities
- Industrial Facilities - Manufacturing plants, processing facilities, and heavy industrial applications
- Equipment Connections - Motor control centers, switchgear, and electrical distribution systems
- Conduit Extensions - Joining EMT sections for longer conduit runs
- Repair Applications - Replacing damaged conduit sections without rewiring
- Municipal Infrastructure - Government buildings, schools, and public facilities
- Maintenance Projects - Electrical system upgrades and modifications
- New Construction - Complete electrical conduit system installations
EMT Coupling System Benefits
EMT set screw couplings provide superior versatility compared to compression fittings, allowing for easier installation in tight spaces and simplified maintenance access. The four-screw design distributes holding force evenly around the conduit circumference, preventing deformation while ensuring maximum pullout resistance. This makes them ideal for applications where conduit systems may experience vibration, thermal expansion, or mechanical stress.
Why Choose Zinc Plated Steel Construction?
Zinc plated steel offers the perfect balance of strength, durability, and corrosion resistance for professional electrical installations. The zinc coating provides excellent protection against rust and corrosion while maintaining the structural integrity of steel construction. This combination ensures reliable performance in both indoor and outdoor applications, making it the preferred choice for electrical contractors who demand long-term reliability and professional-grade quality in their conduit systems.
