This fitting provides a secure, low-resistance grounding path between metal conduit and an enclosure or junction box, ensuring continuity of the equipment grounding conductor. At 2.5 inches, it is sized for use with 2-1\/2 inch trade-size rigid metal conduit (RMC) or intermediate metal conduit (IMC). Licensed electricians and electrical contractors install this type of hardware during panel, enclosure, and conduit system work where code-compliant grounding continuity is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMalleable grounding locknuts are used in commercial, industrial, and heavy-duty residential electrical installations wherever rigid or intermediate metal conduit terminates at an enclosure. The GL-700-D is suited for applications requiring a reliable threaded mechanical and electrical bond at the conduit entry point. It is commonly used in raceway systems serving switchgear, motor control centers, pull boxes, and similar equipment enclosures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMalleable iron construction for durability in demanding electrical environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrounding-style locknut establishes electrical continuity between conduit and enclosure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2.5-inch trade size fits 2-1\/2 inch RMC and IMC conduit threads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThreaded design provides secure mechanical hold at enclosure knockout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style fitting for use with 2-1\/2 inch trade-size rigid metal conduit and intermediate metal conduit terminations at standard electrical enclosures and junction boxes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). De-energize all circuits before working inside any enclosure or panel. Thread the locknut onto the conduit end and tighten securely against the enclosure wall to maintain a solid grounding connection. Do not use on nonmetallic conduit systems where grounding continuity through the conduit is not required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTrade Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Malleable iron\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 68785516775\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: APPLETON\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: GL-700-D\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"APPLETON","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51383456039218,"sku":"GL-700-D","price":39.62,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/312678339.jpg?v=1782597215","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/appleton-gl-700-d-malleable-grounding-locknut-2-5-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
