Compression design delivers a secure, tool-efficient termination with fewer components, enabling faster assembly, reduced rework, and more consistent performance under vibration. In control panels and field cabinets, this translates to shorter commissioning windows and lower labor costs. The 1-1/4 inch trade size and distinctive orange color support rapid identification and seamless compatibility with EMT conduit, reducing downtime during maintenance and upgrades. The threadless, non-insulated steel construction provides rugged durability and corrosion resistance, extending service life and lowering replacement costs in harsh plant environments. Compliance with NEC/CEC and UL Canada certification simplifies regulatory audits and site approvals, reducing project risk. Availability of 3D CAD drawings and catalogs accelerates engineering workflows, improving BOM accuracy and ensuring correct fit in enclosure terminations. Ordinary/non-hazardous location ratings enable broad applicability across manufacturing floors, data centers, and process facilities.

FAQs
The 653ORANGE uses a compression, threadless design for EMT terminations, allowing tool-free or minimal-tool installations that speed up assembly. It reduces re-termination risk, delivers consistent clamping force, and minimizes the chance of insulation damage during assembly. This makes it ideal for busy panels, field cabinets, and retrofit projects where time and reliability matter.
Yes. The 653ORANGE is specified for a 1-1/4" trade size EMT conduit and features a non-insulated, threadless compression design. Installation uses standard EMT fittings practices, with no additional insulation required in ordinary/non-hazardous locations. This simplifies field installations while ensuring a secure, code-compliant termination.
653ORANGE is built to NEC/CEC standards and rated for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, with UL Canada certification support referenced in authorized reports. Certification documents are available through UL Canada listings and Eaton’s specification resources, including the official datasheet and product pages for traceability and compliance evidence.
Typical applications include electrical panels, motor control cabinets, switchgear terminations, and process equipment enclosures requiring reliable EMT terminations. The compression design reduces installation time and labor costs, lowers rework risk, and improves field reliability, leading to quicker project completion and lower maintenance overhead in manufacturing plants and data centers.
