Quick Summary

Eaton Crouse-Hinds XJG28 expansion coupling provides reliable rigid/IMC conduit connections for industrial electrical installations. Installers frequently face limited movement tolerance and alignment challenges that lead to rework, leaks, and costly downtime. The unit is designed for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous locations and adheres to NEC/CEC standards, ensuring safe, compliant performance in everyday plant environments. With a 3/4 in trade size and steel construction, it tolerates dynamic movement up to 8 inches, helping systems absorb vibration and thermal expansion. By simplifying installation and reducing field adjustments, it lowers labor costs while delivering long-term reliability for maintenance-heavy facilities. This makes it a practical choice for new builds and retrofit projects where space, accessibility, and uptime matter.

Feature → Business Impact → Application: The XJG28 expansion coupling utilizes a steel expansion design that delivers durable, long-lasting connections, reducing maintenance costs and downtime in heavy-use facilities. This translates to measurable reliability gains for rigid/IMC conduit runs in automotive plants, chemical facilities, and manufacturing floors where vibration is routine and uptime is critical. Application: Ideal for 3/4 in trade size lines in ordinary locations, offering robust performance in NEC/CEC-compliant installations and supporting easier retrofits where space is constrained. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The 8 in max conduit movement capability enables controlled deflection during thermal expansion and seismic or vibrational conditions, lowering risk of conduit damage and leaks. Application: Suitable for installations that demand quick, trouble-free field adjustments without sacrificing safety or code compliance. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Steel construction provides rigidity and impact resistance, reducing the need for frequent replacements and enabling longer service life in harsh environments. Application: Suitable for steel conduit runs in industrial facilities requiring dependable expansion control. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 11 in length, 2.25 in height and width, and 1.25 lb weight enable compact, easy-to-handle fittings that speed up assembly and reduce inventory complexity. Application: Useful for space-limited panels and conduit trunks where weight savings and ease of handling matter. Feature → Business Impact → Application: NEC/CEC alignment and Ordinary/Non-Hazardous area suitability ensure compliance with regulatory requirements, reducing risk during audits and inspections. Application: Essential for facilities targeting standardized electrical installations with proven performance.
