Feature Aluminum construction provides a lightweight yet robust conduit coupling that reduces handling effort on site while delivering corrosion resistance for harsh factory environments. Business Impact The lighter weight lowers installation time and fatigue for technicians, translating to faster project completion and lower labor costs. Application Ideal for 1/2" rigid/IMC conduit runs in automation panels and machine wiring where long-term durability matters. Feature Precision 1/2" trade size and defined length ensure a consistent fit, minimizing misalignment and rework during panel wiring and conduit stringing. Business Impact This translates to fewer field adjustments, better first-pass torque control, and improved overall wiring quality. Application Use in general purpose conduit networks across manufacturing lines where NEC/CEC compliance simplifies inspection. Feature Compliance with NEC/CEC standards and ordinary-location ratings provides immediate procurement confidence. Business Impact Enables quick design approvals and reduces the need for alternate fittings, lowering compliance risks. Application Suitable for ordinary/non-hazardous locations in factory floors and electrical rooms. Feature Compatibility with Crouse-Hinds ecosystem supports seamless interoperability with other connectors and housings. Business Impact Streamlines stocking and spec sheets, reducing sourcing complexity and procurement lead times. Application Ideal for multi-vendor assemblies and standard electrical installations. Feature Documentation availability including Eaton datasheets and catalogs accelerates specification. Business Impact Improves design accuracy and speed-to-market by providing official references. Application Supports engineering teams during project kickoff and validation. Feature All-around fit for 1/2" rigid/IMC conduit with aluminum body and rigid style delivers consistent performance. Business Impact Enhances reliability and lifecycle cost of conduit assemblies in industrial wiring. Application Suitable for automation and process-control environments requiring robust, compliant fittings.

FAQs

RC50SA is ideal for 1/2 inch rigid/IMC conduit runs in industrial automation, machine wiring, and panel assemblies. Its aluminum construction provides a balance of lightweight handling and robust durability, while its 1/2 inch trade size ensures a precise fit with compatible Crouse-Hinds components. Use in ordinary locations to streamline procurement and installation in manufacturing environments.
RC50SA is designed to meet NEC/CEC standards and is rated for ordinary/non-hazardous locations. This helps simplify compliance during engineering reviews and field inspections. The availability of official Eaton datasheets and Canadian certification documentation further supports design validation and regulatory alignment.
Yes. RC50SA is part of the Crouse-Hinds rigid/IMC ecosystem and is designed to pair with compatible rigid conduit connectors and couplings. This interoperability reduces the need for multiple brands, simplifies stocking, and accelerates installation in multi-component conduit runs.
Aluminum offers corrosion resistance and weight advantages over steel, which translates to easier handling and longer service life in factory environments. The robust aluminum body helps maintain alignment and integrity under vibration and frequent commissioning cycles typical in automation and packaging lines.
Official documentation includes the Eaton RC50SA specification sheet, the Crouse-Hinds catalog pages for rigid/IMC fittings, and Canadian certification references. These resources support accurate spec writing, design approvals, and quick procurement decisions in engineering and project-management workflows.
