Eaton 1658YELLOW EMT Compression Connector - NEC/CEC
Part Number: 1658YELLOW
Quick Summary
The Eaton 1658YELLOW EMT compression connector is an insulated straight fitting for EMT conduit used in control panels and industrial installations. When space is tight or code-compliance timing is critical, traditional threaded fittings can slow progress and invite costly rework. It carries NEC/CEC standards compliance and UL Canada certification, suitable for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations. By selecting this connector, you gain fast, tool-free installation, durable steel construction, and clear yellow color-coding for quick circuit identification, driving reliability, reduced labor, and improved project throughput.

FAQs
The 1658YELLOW is a 3-1/2 inch trade-size EMT compression connector with a straight, threadless design. It is built for EMT conduit in steel runs and is insulated for safe terminations in control panels and industrial installations, offering a reliable, fast-install solution without threading.
Threadless compression connectors eliminate threading steps, enabling quicker alignment and faster terminations. This reduces on-site labor, minimizes the risk of cross-threading, and speeds up panel builds, particularly in tight spaces where traditional nuts and threads are cumbersome.
The 1658YELLOW is specified for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations with NEC/CEC standards. It provides reliable performance in safe-area environments, but should not be used where hazardous location ratings are required without verifying alternative fittings that meet those classifications.
Key certifications include NEC/CEC compliance for standard electrical installations and UL Canada certification. The product is suitable for ordinary-location deployments, aiding regulatory approvals and reducing rework during inspections.
Support materials include a 3D CAD drawing package, EMT catalog page, and the Eaton specification sheet. These resources assist with precise fitment, dimensional checks, and verifying compatibility with Crouse-Hinds series connectors in EMT assemblies.
