Southwire 272 Steel Emt Liquidtight Combo Coupling 3/4 in

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE 272 is a steel combination coupling designed to connect EMT conduit to liquidtight flexible conduit in a single fitting. This type of coupling eliminates the need for separate connectors at each transition point, making it a practical choice where rigid EMT runs terminate into flexible liquidtight sections. Rated for steel conduit systems, the 272 is sized for 3/4-inch trade size and weighs 14 pounds per package. Licensed electricians and journeymen installers use this fitting in commercial and industrial conduit systems where moisture resistance at the flex connection is required.

This coupling is suited for use in commercial and industrial electrical installations where EMT conduit transitions to liquidtight flexible metal conduit. Common applications include equipment drops, HVAC disconnect feeds, and machinery connections where vibration isolation or directional flexibility is needed at the termination point. The 3/4-inch trade size accommodates standard branch-circuit and feeder runs in this size range.

Key Features

• Combination design connects EMT on one end and liquidtight flexible conduit on the other in a single fitting
• Steel construction for durability in commercial and industrial environments
• 3/4-inch trade size fits standard EMT and liquidtight conduit of the same trade size
• Eliminates the need for two separate connectors at EMT-to-liquidtight transition points

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fitting for use with 3/4-inch steel EMT conduit transitioning to 3/4-inch liquidtight flexible metal conduit in standard electrical conduit systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements for conduit fittings and raceways. De-energize all circuits in the work area before beginning conduit work. Ensure both the EMT and liquidtight conduit ends are clean, deburred, and fully seated before tightening the fitting. Do not overtighten to the point of deforming the conduit or fitting threads.
