Eaton Crouse-Hinds ECGJH18 S758 - Hazardous Area Coupling, Class I Div 1
Part Number: ECGJH18 S758
Quick Summary
ECGJH18 S758 is a flexible coupling designed for explosion-protected conduit connections in hazardous locations. The solution addresses the common challenge of maintaining joint integrity amid moisture, vibration, and corrosive environments that accelerate wear and maintenance. This product carries NEC/CEC certification with hazardous ratings including Class I, Division 1 (and broader Class II/III coverage as applicable), ensuring compliance across multiple hazardous-location scenarios. Built with forged brass and a flexible PVC protective coating, it delivers reliable performance, minimizes field rework, and supports safer, more resilient electrical infrastructure in industrial settings. For engineers and procurement teams, this means faster installs, reduced downtime, and a clear path to compliant wiring accessories in hazardous-area projects.

FAQs
ECGJH18 S758 features 8" flexible length with male connections on both ends and a 1/2" trade size, making it compatible with standard Crouse-Hinds EC explosionproof fittings. Refer to IF 1618 instruction sheet for installation steps, torque guidance, and enclosure clearances. Use proper seals and verify coating integrity to maintain ingress protection in hazardous areas.
The ECGJH18 S758 is rated under NEC/CEC standards with Class I, Division 1 hazardous location approvals and additional Class II/III coverage. This ensures compliance for explosive atmospheres, supports regulatory approvals, and simplifies procurement and QA reviews by providing verifiable certification documents such as UL/Canadian certification reports.
Yes, ECGJH18 S758 is designed for hazardous/classified locations and features a durable forged brass body with a flexible PVC coating that offers moisture and abrasion protection. For marine applications, verify additional environment-specific ratings and ensure enclosure protection and ingress barriers align with the installation site requirements.
Forged brass provides high mechanical strength and corrosion resistance, while the flexible PVC protective coating shields the joint from moisture, chemicals, and abrasion. This combination extends service life in harsh environments, reduces maintenance cycles, and lowers total cost of ownership for hazardous-area conduit connections.
The 8" flexible length, 1/2" trade size, and male endings enable quick, repeatable installations with fewer field adaptations. Certification compliance streamlines procurement and reduces QA overhead, while the robust coating minimizes corrosion-related downtime. Together, these factors translate to lower maintenance costs and higher uptime in hazardous-area wiring projects.
