Intermediate Metal IMC Conduits UL1242 Galvanized Carbon Steel
ELECMAN ® UL1242 Carbon Steel Intermediate Metal Conduit(IMC Conduit)
ELECMAN® UL1242 carbon steel intermediate metal conduit(IMC conduit), also commonly called medium-wall conduit, is a listed steel raceway of circular cross section, which is threaded, and nominally 10' long. IMC conduit is available in trade sizes 1/2 through 4. The outside is galvanized for corrosion protection and the inside has an approved corrosion-resistant organic coating.
Applications
ELECMAN® UL1242 carbon steel intermediate metal conduit(IMC conduit) is a circular cross-section canalization used for electrical installations in any type of building.
Features
- Intermediate metal conduit (IMC conduit) is threaded on both ends.
- Intermediate metal conduit (IMC conduit) removes any sharp or rough edge to protect the cables when installations.
- The outside is galvanized for corrosion protection and the inside has an approved corrosion-resistant organic coating.
- High strength ductile steel for long life and easy bending.
- Smooth, continuous raceway for fast wire pulling.
- Protects insulated electrical conductors and cables from magnetic fields, impact damage and crushing.
- IMC conduit connects with threaded type connectors for indoor and outdoor use.
