Eaton Crouse-Hinds XJ148 HDG Expansion Coupling - Hot Dip Galvanized
Part Number: XJ148 HDG
Quick Summary
XJ148 HDG expansion coupling from Eaton Crouse-Hinds is a heavy-duty expansion joint designed for rigid and IMC conduit installations in industrial facilities. This device addresses the common challenge of conduit misalignment and stress under thermal cycling, helping protect cables and maintain system integrity. It aligns with NEC/CEC requirements and supports safe, code-compliant installations in ordinary/non-hazardous locations. The combination of steel construction and hot-dip galvanization delivers long-term durability, while the 6" trade size and 8" maximum movement enable scalable conduit runs. By specifying this coupling, engineers can reduce maintenance intervals and ensure reliable performance across demanding environments.
