[RE-wrenches] Expansion joints

[Hans Frederickson]

We used an OZ-Gedney expansion coupling for 1-1/4" EMT on a recent job. The
part # is TX-125 for 1-1/4", and it would be TX-150 for 1-1/2". It is the
same as the OZ-Gedney AX expansion coupling for rigid conduit, but uses a
rigid nipple and EMT connectors to adapt to EMT. The assembly is UL listed.

I recently used a Hubbell Killark product for rigid/IMC and was not happy
with how the threads of the coupling engaged in factory conduit threads.

 

Crousehinds XJG-EMT series is intended for EMT. And is described as being
used indoors or outdoors. The EMT couplings mostly seem to be compression.

Peter,

 

Cooper makes one for 1.5" emt, not sure if it is rated for wet locations or
not.

 

part #XJG54 EMT, it allows for up to 4" max of conduit movement.

Does anyone have information (manu and part number) for expansion joints for
1-1/2 EMT? I have also heard that many EJs are designed for rigid conduit
(RMC) and may not be directly applicable to EMT.
