Orange, steel construction with a 4 inch trade size delivers a clear visual cue and rugged durability. This feature reduces misidentification and wear, cutting rework and maintenance time. It is well-suited for EMT conduit runs in control panels and machine rooms where fast, repeatable terminations improve project timelines. Straight connector geometry with threadless compression simplifies alignment and forces fewer torque steps during install. The result is tighter joints, consistent electrical performance, and reduced tool time. This works in any standard EMT installation where space constraints and clean assemblies matter. Compliance with NEC/CEC standards and Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations rating ensures the fittings meet code requirements in most industrial environments. UL certification for EMT fittings provides third-party validation of performance. This combination reduces inspection risk and supports safer, code-compliant installations. Compatibility with Eaton's Crouse-Hinds series and standard EMT components streamlines procurement and design reviews with readily available catalogs and CAD resources. Implementation benefits are reinforced by the 3D CAD drawings and specification sheets that support accurate modeling and faster approvals. Field performance benefits include durable steel construction, non-insulated design, and a color cue that supports scalable automation projects.

FAQs
To install 659ORANGE, insert the EMT conduit fully into the connector until seated, then apply the appropriate crimping/compression tooling per Eaton’s guidelines to achieve a secure compression. This model is a 4 inch trade size and is designed for straight EMT runs. The color coding and threadless compression simplify alignment and reduce installation steps in panel assemblies.
659ORANGE complies with NEC/CEC standards and is rated for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, ensuring code-adherent performance in typical industrial and commercial environments. It carries UL certification for EMT fittings, providing third-party validation of installation integrity. This combination reduces inspection risk and supports reliable operation in non-hazardous areas, where consistent, durable connections are critical.
Yes. Its straight, compression design and 4 inch trade size make it ideal for control panels, machine rooms, and equipment racks where fast, repeatable conduit terminations are needed. The orange color aids quick visual verification, and the steel, non-insulated body provides robust mechanical strength. When used with standard EMT fittings, it aligns with scalable wiring schemes common in automation projects.
Remember to verify area classification—this connector is appropriate for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations. Ensure conduit threading and enclosure entries meet local code requirements, and confirm UL certifications for EMT fittings are current in your jurisdiction. Use the provided 3D CAD and specification resources to verify fit and keep project documentation aligned with NEC/CEC standards.
Eaton provides a 3D CAD drawing package, EMT catalog page, and specification sheets for 659ORANGE, plus UL certification references and a dedicated catalog page. Additional resources include the Eaton Specification Sheet and industry-standard downloads to ease design reviews, procurement workflows, and installation planning, reducing RFQ turnaround times and ensuring consistent part selection across projects.
