Thomas Betts 1223 Conduit Bushing 3/4 in Rigid Imc Threaded Steel

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS 1223 is a steel conduit bushing designed to protect wire insulation at the end of a rigid metal conduit or intermediate metal conduit (IMC) termination. The bushing threads onto the end of the conduit and provides a smooth transition surface that prevents conductor insulation from chafing against a sharp conduit edge. Constructed from steel with partial insulation, this 3/4-inch trade size fitting is a standard component in panel terminations, junction box entries, and enclosure knockouts where conduit is landed and conductors are pulled through. Licensed electricians install this fitting as part of a complete conduit system assembly.

The 1223 is suited for non-hazardous area installations where rigid metal conduit or IMC is used. The 3/4-inch trade size matches standard conduit runs commonly found in residential, commercial, and light industrial electrical systems. The threaded connection secures directly to the male-threaded end of a cut and reamed conduit section. This bushing is appropriate wherever code requires conductor protection at a conduit termination point, including panel boards, motor enclosures, and pull boxes.

Key Features

• Threaded connection for secure attachment to rigid conduit and IMC
• Partial insulation provides conductor protection at the termination edge
• Steel construction offers mechanical durability in standard raceway installations
• 3/4-inch trade size for compatibility with common conduit runs
• Rated for non-hazardous area use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fitting for use with 3/4-inch trade size rigid metal conduit and intermediate metal conduit (IMC) in non-hazardous area electrical installations.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with applicable NEC requirements. De-energize the circuit and disconnect power before working at any panel or enclosure entry point. Thread the bushing hand-tight onto the conduit end, then tighten with appropriate pliers or a strap wrench to seat it firmly against the locknut or enclosure wall. Ensure the conduit end is properly reamed and deburred before installing the bushing to maximize conductor protection.
