Hazardous-Location Conduit Reducer

This Appleton Century Crofts reducing bushing adapts threaded rigid metal conduit or IMC in classified areas. It connects a 2 1/2 inch male thread to a 1 1/4 inch female thread. The iron body carries chromate, powder-coat and electroplated finishes for corrosion resistance. Electricians working in hazardous locations specify this fitting for raceway transitions.

Build Integration and Clearance

The 1 1/4 inch overall length keeps the joint compact inside conduit bodies or enclosures. Female-to-male threads allow a direct step-down without extra couplings. Weighing .78 lb, it adds minimal load to the raceway support system. No gaskets or sealants are included; the installer supplies any required thread compound.

Thermal and Environmental Performance

Iron construction dissipates heat from conductors without deformation. The multi-layer coating resists moisture and chemical exposure in harsh environments. The fitting carries no moving parts, so it generates no noise during operation. Power draw is not applicable for this passive conduit accessory.

Questions about this item

Does the chromate and powder-coated iron hold up to continuous exposure in a hazardous location?

The bushing is made of iron with chromate coating, powder coating, and electroplating, all intended for hazardous-location conduit systems.

How much heat does the fitting add when current runs through the conduit all day?

As a passive threaded reducer, it adds no measurable heat; only the conductors inside generate warmth.

Which conduit types must already be on site for the 1 1/4 in FNPT by 2 1/2 in MNPT threads to connect?

It threads directly onto IMC or threaded RMC conduit in trade sizes 1 1/4 in and 2 1/2 in.
