About this item

EMT Conduit Coupling, Set Screw, 1/2 in, Threaded, For Use With: IMC/Rigid Conduit, Steel, Silver, Set Screw Mount, FB-1, 1.51 in Length, 0.87 in Height

Features:

  • Size: 0.5 inches
  • Application Type: EMT (Electrical Metallic Tubing)
  • Material: Zinc die-cast
  • Weight: 0.04 lbs
  • Construction: Concrete-tight
  • Standards: Meets UL514B
  • This coupling is used to connect two pieces of EMT conduit together, ensuring a secure and concrete-tight connection

Applications:

  1. Residential Wiring: Ideal for routing electrical wiring through walls, ceilings, and floors in homes.
  2. Commercial Buildings: Used in offices, retail spaces, and other commercial environments to organize and protect electrical wiring.
  3. Industrial Settings: Suitable for factories and warehouses where robust and secure conduit connections are needed.
  4. Concrete Construction: Ensures a concrete-tight connection, making it suitable for installations within concrete structures 

Installation:

  1. Measure and Cut the Conduit: Use a tape measure to determine the length of EMT conduit needed. Mark the cutting point with a marker and cut the conduit using an EMT conduit cutter.
  2. Deburr the Edges: Smooth out the edges of the cut conduit using a deburring tool to remove any sharp or rough edges.
  3. Prepare the Coupling: Ensure the coupling is clean and ready for installation.
  4. Insert the Conduit: Slide the cut end of the conduit into one side of the coupling until it is fully seated.
  5. Tighten the Setscrews: Use a screwdriver to tighten the setscrews on the coupling. This secures the conduit in place and ensures a concrete-tight connection.
  6. Check Alignment: Use a level to ensure the conduit is straight and properly aligned.
  7. Repeat for the Other Side: Repeat the process for the other piece of conduit, inserting it into the opposite side of the coupling and tightening the setscrews 

Tools Required: 

  1. EMT Conduit Cutter: To cut the EMT conduit to the desired length.
  2. Deburring Tool: To smooth out the edges of the cut conduit.
  3. Tape Measure: To measure the length of the conduit accurately.
  4. Marker: To mark the cutting points on the conduit.
  5. Screwdriver: To tighten the setscrews on the coupling.
  6. Level: To ensure the conduit is installed straight and level
