Reducing bushing for hazardous locations
The Killark RE65S is a steel conduit reducing bushing designed for hazardous-location installations. It connects a 2 inch male-threaded rigid metal conduit or IMC raceway to a 1-1/2 inch female-threaded fitting. The electroplated silver finish provides corrosion resistance in demanding industrial environments. This component is rated for use in classified areas where safety compliance is mandatory.
Steel construction with electroplated finish
The bushing body is manufactured from steel with a glossy gray electroplated coating that withstands moisture and chemical exposure. Its female-to-male thread configuration allows direct transition between dissimilar conduit trade sizes without additional couplings. At 7/8 inch overall length and 1 1/32 inch height, the compact profile fits tight enclosures and crowded junction boxes. The 2 3/8 inch width matches standard hub dimensions for secure engagement.
Trade size 2 to 1-1/2 inch transition
This fitting accepts 2 inch male NPT threads on one end and provides 1-1/2 inch female NPT threads on the other. It is compatible with both IMC and threaded RMC conduit types in those trade sizes. The .47 lb weight reflects solid steel construction suitable for vibration-prone installations. Select this bushing when the conduit run requires a reduction from 2 inch to 1-1/2 inch in a hazardous-location system.

Questions about this item
What thread standard do the 1-1/2 in FNPT and 2 in MNPT ends follow?
The bushing uses National Pipe Taper threads, so the 1-1/2 inch female and 2 inch male ends seal when tightened without a separate gasket.
What clearance does the 2 3/8 in overall width and 1 1/32 in height require?
The electroplated steel body measures 2 3/8 inches across the flats and 1 1/32 inches tall, so allow at least that much space inside the enclosure or conduit run.
How do you install the reducing bushing without cross-threading the tapered threads?
Start the 2 inch male end into the female hub by hand, turn until resistance rises, then finish with a strap wrench on the 2 3/8 inch hex; do not use pipe wrench jaws directly on the electroplated finish.
