Some common types of EMT conduit pipe fittings include:
EMT (Electrical Metallic Tubing) conduit pipe fittings are components used in electrical wiring installations to connect EMT conduit pipes together, to junction boxes, or to electrical devices such as switches, outlets, or light fixtures. These fittings are essential for ensuring proper electrical safety and functionality in residential, commercial, and industrial settings.
- EMT Connectors
Used to connect EMT conduit and conduit box together. These can be compression type or set screw type connectors.
- Couplings
Similar to connectors, but used to join two pieces of conduit together without any additional features.
- Elbows
Used to change the direction of conduit runs, typically available in 90-degree or 45-degree angles.
- Conduit Bodies
Provide access points for making bends, pulling wire, and splicing. They come in various configurations like LB (L-shaped), LL (elbow-shaped), LR (elbow-shaped with a removable cover), C (capped on one end), T (tee-shaped), and more.
- Straps and Hangers
Used to support and secure conduit to walls, ceilings, or other structures.
- Service entrance cap clamp type
For use to bring overhead electrical service into buildings.
- Conduit bender
For bending steel conduit to form a bend fast and easily.
These fittings are typically made from steel, aluminum, or zinc, and they are designed to meet various industry standards and codes for electrical installations.
