Female Union for 2 in Rigid Conduit
This Appleton Century Crofts female union connects two sections of 2 in rigid conduit in vertical or horizontal runs. The fitting carries hazardous-location ratings for Class I, Division 1 and 2, Groups A through D, Class II, Division 1 and 2, Groups E, F, G, and Class III environments. It is built from malleable iron with a chromate, powder-coated and electroplated silver finish. The overall length measures 2 5/16 in.
Thermal and Power Behaviour
As a passive conduit fitting, the union generates no heat and draws no electrical power during normal operation. The malleable iron body and multi-layer coating do not require active cooling or produce audible noise. Installation simply threads the FNPT ends onto matching conduit without additional energy consumption.
Coating and Hazardous-Location Compliance
The chromate, powder-coated and electroplated finish protects the iron from corrosion in harsh industrial atmospheres. This surface treatment supports the fitting's hazardous-location certifications without requiring separate sealants or compounds. No software or electronic accessories are bundled with this mechanical component.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 2 in female union on rigid conduit, and what step is often missed?
Thread each conduit end into the FNPT openings until tight; the step often missed is applying a listed thread sealant to maintain the hazardous-location rating.
What maintenance or replacement will the chromate-coated iron union need over time?
Inspect the powder-coated and electroplated finish periodically for corrosion; replace the union if the coating is breached or threads show galling.
What limit appears first when the union runs continuously in a Class I Division 1 area?
The 2 5/16 in overall length restricts conduit bending radius, so cable-pull tension becomes the limiting factor before the iron body reaches its thermal limit.
