Thomas Betts 612 Conduit Reducer 2-3/4 in Rigid Imc

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS 612 is a malleable iron conduit reducer designed for use with rigid metal conduit and intermediate metal conduit (IMC) systems. This threaded, non-insulated fitting reduces conduit trade size at junction points, allowing electricians to transition between conduit sizes within a raceway system. Constructed from malleable iron, the 612 provides the mechanical strength and corrosion resistance required in commercial and industrial wiring installations. The 2-3/4 inch trade size designation identifies the conduit opening this reducer is engineered to fit. It is intended for use in non-hazardous locations only.

This conduit reducer is suited for commercial and industrial electrical installations where rigid or IMC conduit is routed through panels, enclosures, or junction boxes requiring a size transition. Electricians and electrical contractors typically install this fitting during conduit rough-in when transitioning between conduit runs of differing trade sizes. It is appropriate for use in dry, damp, or non-hazardous wet locations as governed by the applicable installation environment and NEC guidelines.

Key Features

• Malleable iron construction provides durability and resistance to mechanical stress
• Threaded connection type ensures secure, code-compliant conduit assembly
• Compatible with both rigid metal conduit and intermediate metal conduit (IMC)
• Non-insulated design for standard raceway applications
• Rated for non-hazardous area applications only
• 2-3/4 inch trade size fits standard conduit of that designation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement fitting compatible with rigid metal conduit and intermediate metal conduit (IMC) systems at the 2-3/4 inch trade size.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes. De-energize all circuits in the affected conduit system before beginning work. Use appropriate pipe wrenches or conduit tools to achieve a secure threaded connection without overtightening, which can crack malleable iron fittings. This fitting is rated for non-hazardous locations only and must not be used in classified hazardous environments.
