Eaton Crouse-Hinds 1042 Throat Bushing - UL Listed
Part Number: 1042
Quick Summary
Eaton Crouse-Hinds throat bushing provides insulated, threaded termination for rigid/IMC conduit in industrial wiring installations. Without proper insulating bushings, installers face moisture ingress, heat buildup, and compliance challenges with NEC/CEC. UL certification for Rigid/IMC usage, NEC/CEC compliance, and suitability for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous locations ensure safe, code-aligned installations. This part simplifies conduit fittings, improves reliability in control panels, and lowers maintenance costs by protecting terminations and guarding against insulation damage, delivering value across panel builders, machine shops, and industrial facilities.

Insulated throat bushing for rigid/IMC conduit provides durable protection at the termination point, reducing arcing and conductor wear while improving enclosure integrity. The 6" trade size and threaded design offer straightforward installation, minimizing commissioning time and ensuring secure conduit connections in demanding environments. Malleable iron construction delivers mechanical robustness against vibration and impact, extending service life in dynamic manufacturing settings. With a 105°C temperature rating, the component maintains insulating performance in hotter zones around motors and drives, supporting reliable operation and long-term insulation resilience. UL certification for rigid-IMC use and NEC/CEC compliance simplify procurement and project planning, lowering risk for contractors and end users. The combination of material choice, insulation, and code alignment makes this bushing a cost-effective choice for routine conduit terminations and upgrade projects in ordinary locations.

FAQs
To install 1042, ensure you are using rigid/IMC conduit and that the bushing is the correct 6" trade size. Align the conduit, thread the bushing into the enclosure or panel termination, and tighten to the recommended specification per Eaton's 1042 datasheet. Refer to the Eaton specification sheet for torque guidance and installation tips.
Key specs include a 6" trade size, threaded connection, insulated body, malleable iron construction, and a 105°C temperature rating. It is designed for rigid/IMC conduit and intended for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, with NEC/CEC compliance and UL certification for safe, code-conforming installations.
Yes. The 1042 is designed to meet NEC/CEC standards and is certified for use in Ordinary/Non-Hazardous locations. This ensures code-compliant conduit terminations in typical industrial environments and reduces the risk of electrical code violations during audits or inspections.
1042 features a malleable iron body with an insulated finish and a threaded connection for secure terminations. The 6" trade size, 105°C insulation rating, and rigid/IMC compatibility provide durable performance in manufacturing plants, panels, and enclosures subject to vibration, heat, and frequent maintenance.
