Compression Coupling, Concrete Tight, 1/2 in, Compression, Steel, Plated Zinc, FB1-2014, 1.688 in Length, 1.25 in Width

Features:

• Pipe Cutter or Hacksaw: To cut the EMT conduit to the desired length.
• Deburring Tool: To remove any burrs from the cut ends of the conduit.
• Screwdriver: To tighten the set screws on the connector.
• Wrench: To tighten the locknut when securing the connector to the electrical box.
• Tape Measure: To measure the conduit lengths accurately.
• Level: To ensure the conduit is installed straight and level

Applications: 

1. Joining EMT Conduits: It is primarily used to join two lengths of EMT conduit together, ensuring a secure and continuous pathway for electrical wiring  
2. Commercial and Residential Wiring: Commonly used in both commercial and residential electrical installations to maintain the integrity of the conduit system 
3. Concrete Tight Applications: When taped, it provides concrete-tight protection, making it suitable for installations where a secure and moisture-resistant connection is required 
4. Indoor Electrical Systems: Specifically designed for indoor use, ensuring a reliable connection between EMT conduit sections

Instructions:

1. Preparation:

   • Ensure the ends of the EMT conduit are clean and free from burrs.
   • Measure and cut the conduit to the desired length.

2. Assembly:

   • Insert one end of the EMT conduit into the coupling until it reaches the stop.
   • Repeat the process for the other end of the coupling with the second piece of conduit.

3. Tightening:

   • Use a wrench to tighten the compression nuts on both sides of the coupling.
   • Ensure the connection is secure and concrete-tight if required (by taping the coupling).

4. Inspection:

   • Check the connection to ensure it is tight and there are no gaps.
   • Verify that the coupling is properly aligned with the conduit

Tools Required:

1. Pipe Cutter or Hacksaw: To cut the EMT conduit to the desired length.
2. Deburring Tool: To remove any burrs from the cut ends of the conduit.
3. Wrench: To tighten the compression nuts on the coupling.
4. Tape Measure: To measure the conduit lengths accurately.
5. Level: To ensure the conduit is installed straight and level
