Eaton Specification Sheet - RC500SA
Aluminum construction reduces weight, enabling faster field installation and easier handling, which translates to lower labor costs and reduced fatigue for technicians. This aligns with process industries needing durable, corrosion-resistant fittings that withstand daily wear in conduit connections. The 5 inch trade-size design fits standard rigid/IMC conduit without adapters, simplifying sourcing and inventory management. Paired with a straightforward coupling interface, technicians experience fewer fit issues and faster commissioning. NEC/CEC standards and UL-listed certifications cover US and Canada, reducing compliance risk during audits and enabling universal acceptance across facilities. This means you can specify RC500SA with confidence in both new builds and retrofit projects. Area classification is Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, ensuring suitability for general plant environments and eliminating the need for specialized hazardous-location hardware in many deployments. Access to Eaton's specification sheet and catalog pages accelerates design and procurement workflows; the aluminum rigid/IMC coupling provides durable, long-life performance in demanding installations.
