1-1/4" EMT to Rigid / IMC Compression Connector – Steel, Concrete-Tight
The Conversions Tech 1-1/4" EMT to Rigid / IMC Compression Connector is a professional-grade electrical fitting engineered to securely transition 1-1/4" Electrical Metallic Tubing (EMT) to threaded Rigid or Intermediate Metal Conduit (IMC). This connector is designed for electrical systems that require the installation flexibility of EMT while maintaining the superior mechanical strength and protection offered by rigid conduit.
Utilizing a precision compression mechanism, this connector creates a tight, leak-resistant, and concrete-tight seal between conduit types, ensuring long-term mechanical stability and electrical continuity. The heavy-duty steel body is electro-galvanized with a zinc coating exceeding 15 microns, delivering enhanced corrosion resistance for reliable performance in both indoor and outdoor environments.
