Quick Summary

XJG58 SA Expansion Coupling provides controlled movement for rigid/IMC conduit in industrial plant wiring paths. In the field, thermal expansion, vibration, and settling can cause misalignment and wear, driving downtime and costly repairs. This product meets NEC/CEC standards and UL certification for EMT and Rigid/IMC installations, with Ordinary/Non-Hazardous location classification. Built from copper-free aluminum, it reduces weight without compromising strength, and supports up to 8 inches of movement within a 1-1/2 inch trade size. By enabling reliable field adjustments and straightforward installation, it helps maintain schedule integrity while lowering maintenance costs and extending conduit life.

Copper-free aluminum construction reduces weight and enhances corrosion resistance, delivering lower handling effort during installation and longer service life in demanding environments. This matters for large-scale field runs where every joint adds assembly time and potential leakage risk. The XJG58 SA is purpose-built to absorb conduit movement without stressing joints, preserving the integrity of cable trays and enclosures. The material choice also aligns with sustainability goals by minimizing heavy metal content in critical electrical assemblies. With a 1-1/2 inch trade size and a maximum 8 inch movement, it accommodates contraction and expansion without resorting to multiple fittings, translating into faster commissioning, reduced part counts, and fewer field adjustments for misaligned conduits. In retrofit projects, it simplifies alignment across elbows and boxes, helping maintain enclosure integrity and meeting project timelines. NEC/CEC compliance and UL certifications underpin safe installations across North America, even in ordinary/non-hazardous locations. This assurance reduces review cycles and regulatory risk during audits, while the included documentation supports fast, compliant field wiring. Compatibility with Rigid/IMC conduit makes it a versatile choice for industrial plants, chemical facilities, and power distribution cabinets. Installation notes (IF 343 and relevant spec sheets) provide guidance for expansion joints, enabling technicians to plan maintenance windows and minimize downtime. From a lifecycle perspective, copper-free aluminum expansion couplings deliver measurable ROI through reliability, reduced maintenance, and streamlined spares planning. Operators benefit from fewer unplanned outages, while procurement gains by standardizing fittings across projects.

FAQs

XJG58 SA is designed for rigid/IMC conduit at a 1-1/2 inch trade size with up to 8 inches of movement. Plan for field alignment at joints and verify the installation aligns with NEC/CEC requirements. Refer to IF 343 expansion joint instructions and the Eaton XJG documentation for proper enclosure clearances, torque values (if specified), and mounting tolerances. Ensure the location falls under Ordinary/Non-Hazardous areas per classification. Use the UL-certified guidance to validate compliance during commissioning.
The coupling supports 1-1/2 inch trade size conduits and accommodates up to 8 inches of movement, allowing contraction and expansion without stressing the joint. Its copper-free aluminum construction keeps weight manageable while maintaining strength, minimizing installation effort and long-term maintenance. This performance translates to faster field adjustments, improved reliability in dynamic environments, and reduced need for additional expansion fittings in longer conduit runs.
Yes. XJG58 SA is rated for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations and adheres to NEC/CEC standards, ensuring regulatory compliance across North America. UL certification is provided for EMT and Rigid/IMC applications, giving assurance during audits and inspections. This makes it suitable for mainstream industrial and commercial wiring projects where compliant conduit management is required.
UL certification is documented for both EMT and Rigid/IMC conduit variants. The product references UL pages such as DWTT.E7008 and DWTT7.E7008, which cover conduit fittings including expansion couplings. These listings underpin safety and regulatory compliance, and accompany installation literature like IF 343 and the Eaton XJG catalog pages for validated field use.
The XJG58 SA reduces downtime and maintenance frequency by absorbing movement without stressing joints, lowering the risk of conduit misalignment. Copper-free aluminum lowers weight for easier handling and resistance to corrosion, reducing replacement costs. Standardized 1-1/2 inch fittings and up to 8 inches of movement streamline procurement, commissioning, and future upgrades, delivering measurable lifecycle cost savings.
