ECGJH136 coupling - 36" Flexible - Class I, Div 1
Part Number: ECGJH136
Quick Summary
ECGJH136 coupling is a 36-inch, flexible conduit connector designed for explosion-protected installations in hazardous areas. In hazardous locations, unreliable fittings can cause leaks, corrosion, or arcing, delaying maintenance and increasing risk. This ECGJH136 carries NEC/CEC compliance and Class I, Division 1 ratings, with Canadian certifications documented. The forged brass body delivers durable performance in harsh environments, while male connections on both ends speed assembly. With a 1/2-inch trade size and a 39.75-inch product length, routing is straightforward in tight spaces. Designed for retrofit and new-build projects, it reduces downtime, supports safe operation, and aligns with Eaton's hazardous-area portfolio. Reliable, compliant, ready for plant-wide deployments.

Feature: 36-inch flexible length with male connections at both ends enables rapid routing through confined conduit runs. Impact: reduces field labor, minimizes misalignment, and shortens installation schedules in retrofit or new-build projects. Application: ideal for chemical plants, oil and gas facilities, and offshore platforms where space is limited and downtime costs matter. Industry professionals appreciate the consistent hex dimensions and reliable sealing that maintain system integrity even in vibrations. Feature: Forged brass construction delivers robust sealing and corrosion resistance. Impact: extends service life in harsh environments, lowers replacement claims, and improves long-term reliability. Application: suited to hazardous-area couplings exposed to moisture, chemicals, and temperature swings in refineries and mining operations. Feature: NEC/CEC compliance with Class I, Division 1 ratings (and Class II/III). Impact: simplifies regulatory workflows, supports safety audits, and reduces the risk of non-compliance penalties. Application: essential for North American installations and Canadian projects where cross-border standards apply. Feature: 1/2-inch trade size aligns with standard conduit systems and is compatible with Eaton EC series fittings. Impact: reduces compatibility concerns, accelerates procurement, and minimizes the need for adapters in complex conduit networks. Application: fits most industrial conduit runs, including panels, junctions, and trunk lines. Feature: 36-inch flexible length with 39.75-inch product length option gives management flexibility in routing while maintaining a compact footprint. Impact: simplifies installation in tight spaces, lowers material waste, and supports clean cable management. Application: ideal for retrofit and new construction in hazardous locations. Industry insight: field technicians report significant time savings and fewer re-dos when using ECGJH136 for long, flexible connections, translating to lower maintenance costs and improved uptime.

FAQs
Before installation, de-energize equipment and verify area classification. Use proper PPE, match male-ended connectors on both ends, and thread/torque per IF 1618 instructions. Route the 36-inch flexible length to minimize bending stress, tighten fittings with appropriate wrenches, and verify a solid seal. Follow NEC/CEC guidelines for Class I, Div 1 environments.
ECGJH136 is NEC/CEC compliant and rated for Hazardous/Classified Locations, with NEC hazardous ratings Class I Division 1, Class II Division 1, and Class III. Canadian certification reports verify compliance, and an EU declaration of conformity is available. These certifications support safe operation, regulatory audits, and cross-border procurement in North American and international projects.
Yes. ECGJH136 uses a 1/2 inch trade size and male connections on both ends, designed to fit standard 1/2 inch conduit and EC-style fittings. The 36-inch flexible length helps in routing within equipment rooms, control panels, and hazardous-area junctions. Always confirm compatibility with your specific conduit schedule and enclosure standards.
ECGJH136 weighs approximately 3.55 lb and provides a 39.75 in product length with a 36-inch flexible section and 1/2-inch trade size. This combination balances durability and manageability for field installs in restricted spaces. The dual male-ended design simplifies assembly and reduces the need for additional adapters in hazardous locations.
