Southwire 21 45 Degree Emt Elbow 1/2 Inch

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE 21 is a 45-degree EMT (Electrical Metallic Tubing) elbow fitting sized for 1/2-inch conduit. It is used to change the direction of an EMT conduit run at a 45-degree angle, allowing wire and cable to be routed cleanly through walls, ceilings, and mechanical spaces. This type of fitting is a standard component in commercial and residential electrical installations. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors install this elbow as part of conduit raceway systems that protect and route branch-circuit and feeder conductors.

This 45-degree EMT elbow is suited for use in standard indoor and outdoor conduit installations where a smooth, swept bend is needed without field-bending the conduit. It fits 1/2-inch EMT conduit, the most common conduit trade size in residential and light commercial wiring. Typical applications include outlet branch circuits, device wiring, panel feeders, and mechanical equipment connections where conduit must change direction at a fixed 45-degree angle.

Key Features

• 45-degree sweep angle for direction changes without field bending
• Sized for 1/2-inch EMT conduit, the most widely used trade size
• Designed for use in standard EMT raceway systems per NEC requirements
• Compatible with standard EMT set-screw or compression connectors and couplings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fitting for use with standard 1/2-inch EMT conduit raceway systems in residential and commercial electrical installations.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements for EMT conduit systems. De-energize all circuits in the work area before pulling conductors through any completed conduit run. Ensure all conduit joints and fittings are properly secured and that the assembled raceway is continuous and mechanically sound before conductor installation.
