Eaton Crouse-Hinds 1-1/2" EMT Raintight Compression Coupling
Weather-Sealed Conduit Connection for Outdoor Systems
The Eaton Crouse-Hinds 1-1/2" EMT Raintight Compression Coupling is a premium steel coupling engineered with raintight sealing for joining conduit sections in outdoor and wet location applications. This heavy-duty coupling ensures reliable weather protection and long-term system integrity in challenging environmental conditions.
Key Features & Benefits
Advanced Weather Sealing
- Raintight Construction - Prevents moisture infiltration at conduit joints
- Weather-Sealed Design - Engineered for outdoor installation reliability
- Wet Location Rated - Suitable for areas subject to water exposure
- Long-Term Protection - Maintains seal integrity over decades of service
Compression Coupling Technology
- 1-1/2" Trade Size - Perfect for medium-duty EMT installations
- Dual Compression Design - Secure connection on both conduit ends
- Steel Construction - Heavy-duty durability for outdoor environments
- Threadless Connection - No conduit threading required, prevents damage
Technical Specifications
This professional coupling features 1-1/2" trade size compatibility with EMT (Electrical Metallic Tubing) systems. Steel construction provides heavy-duty durability while raintight design ensures wet location suitability. Straight coupling configuration utilizes dual compression connection method for secure attachment meeting NEC/CEC compliance standards.
Installation Process
- Prepare both EMT conduit ends ensuring clean, square cuts
- Insert first conduit section into coupling until fully seated
- Insert second conduit section into opposite end of coupling
- Tighten both compression mechanisms to manufacturer specifications
- Verify raintight seal integrity around both connection points
- Test coupling for proper mechanical and weather protection
Applications
Perfect for:
- Outdoor Conduit Runs - Building-to-building connections, exterior lighting circuits
- Wet Location Systems - Areas regularly exposed to moisture or washing
- Commercial Exterior Installations - Shopping centers, office complexes, retail facilities
- Industrial Outdoor Equipment - Manufacturing facilities with exterior electrical needs
- Municipal Infrastructure - Street lighting, traffic control systems, public utilities
- Agricultural Electrical Systems - Farm buildings, processing facilities, irrigation controls
Compression Coupling Advantages
Compression couplings provide superior performance compared to set screw alternatives: raintight sealing prevents moisture-related failures, compression connection won't loosen over time, no conduit threading required reduces installation time, maintains system grounding continuity, and provides reliable long-term performance in challenging outdoor environments.
