FAQs
The XJG38 HDG expansion coupling is designed for rigid/IMC conduit with a 1 inch trade size. It accommodates movement up to 8 inches and features a hot dip galvanized steel body for enhanced durability, making it suitable for common industrial installations that require reliable expansion joints in non-hazardous environments.
The expansion coupling provides controlled axial movement to absorb thermal expansion and vibration in rigid/IMC conduits. It supports up to 8 inches of movement, helping to prevent conduit strain and misalignment across long runs. This reduces field rework and preserves conductor integrity in automation lines.
Yes. The product uses hot dip galvanized steel, offering corrosion resistance suitable for ordinary locations and damp environments. It is intended for non-hazardous areas, making it a dependable choice for factory exteriors, loading docks, and other facilities where exposure to moisture is possible.
The XJG38 HDG adheres to NEC/CEC standards and carries Canadian certifications for EMT and Rigid/IMC conduit. It is classified for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, aligning with typical industrial codes and regulatory requirements to support compliant procurement and installation.
Installation is straightforward due to standard fitting interfaces and a compact footprint (11.38 inches long; 2.43 by 2.43 inches; 3.5 lb). The HDG finish reduces repainting and maintenance costs over time, while the 1 inch trade size and 8 inch movement capability minimize cycle interruptions and field rework, delivering faster project commissioning and lower total cost of ownership.
