Cooper Crouse-hinds 255 Conduit Reducer 2-1/2 in Rigid Imc

Product Description

The COOPER CROUSE-HINDS 255 is a non-insulated threaded conduit reducer designed for use with rigid metal conduit and Intermediate Metal Conduit (IMC) systems. Built from steel, this reducer steps down conduit trade sizes at junction points, allowing installers to transition between conduit runs without compromising system integrity. At a 2-1/2 inch trade size, it is suited for larger commercial and industrial conduit installations. A licensed electrician installs this fitting as part of a complete conduit assembly where trade size changes are required along a run.

This reducer is rated for non-hazardous area applications and is commonly used in commercial electrical distribution systems, industrial facilities, and large-scale residential service entrances where rigid or IMC conduit is the raceway of choice. The threaded connection type ensures a secure mechanical bond between conduit sections. It is appropriate for use in dry, damp, or wet locations where steel conduit systems are permitted by the applicable electrical code.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize all circuits and verify lockout/tagout procedures are complete before working on any conduit system. Use appropriate pipe wrenches or conduit-specific tools to thread and seat the reducer properly. Do not overtighten, as this can damage threads on the conduit or the fitting.
