FAQs
XJG18 is designed for control panel wiring and automation equipment where rigid/IMC conduit runs must accommodate thermal and vibrational movement. Its 1/2 inch trade size and 8 inch movement capacity support both retrofits and new installations, helping engineers maintain alignment while meeting NEC/CEC requirements. It is ideal for factory automation environments that demand durable, code-compliant conduit connections.
The XJG18 provides expansion capability up to 8 inches for rigid/IMC conduits, with a 1/2 inch trade size and steel construction. It measures 11 inches in length, 2.25 inches in height, and 2.25 inches in width, weighing 1.85 pounds. This combination supports accurate layout during thermal cycling and mechanical vibrations common in industrial settings.
Yes, XJG18 is UL-certified for EMT and Rigid/IMC configurations. It complies with NEC/CEC standards and carries an Ordinary/Non-Hazardous area classification, ensuring safe operation in typical plant environments. These certifications provide third-party validation for installation safety, regulatory compliance, and performance in automation wiring.
XJG18 is approved for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous locations and meets NEC/CEC standards. UL listings for EMT and Rigid/IMC further confirm its suitability for standard industrial facilities without specialized explosion-proof requirements. This makes it a reliable choice for general manufacturing environments and non-hazardous electrical installations.
Installation instructions are available as IF 1508 documents, along with the Eaton catalog pages and the expansion/deflection spec guide. You can access the IF1508 sheets, XJG catalog pages, and the Expansion and Deflection Couplings spec guide to verify installation steps, dimensions, and compatibility before procurement and field deployment.
