Thomas & Betts UNY505-G OCAL PVC-Coated Male Union Rigid Conduit Fitting

Thomas & Betts UNY505-G OCAL PVC-Coated Male Union Rigid Conduit Fitting

The Thomas & Betts UNY505-G is a PVC-Coated Male Union conduit fitting from the Thomas & Betts OCAL series, engineered to deliver a corrosion-resistant, disconnectable joint within rigid conduit systems. This male union half is designed to mate with its corresponding female union component, allowing electrical professionals to service, inspect, or reconfigure conduit runs without cutting or re-threading pipe. The PVC coating applied over the fitting body helps protect against corrosive elements, moisture, and chemical exposure often encountered in industrial, wastewater, and outdoor conduit installations. As part of the OCAL product line, the UNY505-G brings a corrosion-resistant fitting design to demanding rigid conduit applications where standard uncoated fittings would be prone to premature failure.

Key Features

• Male Union Configuration: This fitting is the male half of a two-piece union assembly, providing a fully disconnectable joint in rigid conduit runs for easier maintenance, inspection, and future modification.
• PVC-Coated Construction: A PVC coating applied over the fitting body provides an added layer of corrosion resistance, helping protect the underlying fitting from moisture, chemicals, and other corrosive conditions.
• OCAL Series Fitting: Manufactured as part of the Thomas & Betts OCAL line of PVC-coated conduit fittings, purpose-built for corrosive and demanding industrial environments.
• Rigid Conduit Compatibility: Designed to work within rigid conduit systems, providing a reliable, code-compliant connection point where a serviceable union is required.
• Union-Style Serviceability: The union design eliminates the need to cut and re-couple conduit for equipment servicing, reducing installation and maintenance labor over the life of the system.
