Thomas Betts E996F Pvc Conduit Adapter 1 Inch Rigid

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS E996F is a PVC conduit adapter designed for use with rigid conduit systems. It provides a glued, insulated connection point for transitioning or terminating rigid polyvinylchloride conduit runs. The adapter carries a 1-inch trade size rating and is constructed entirely of polyvinylchloride for corrosion resistance in non-hazardous environments. Electricians use this fitting during conduit rough-in or when adapting conduit terminations to enclosures, junction boxes, or other conduit bodies. Its insulated design helps protect conductors at the connection point and reduces the risk of abrasion on wire insulation at transitions.

This adapter is suited for residential and light commercial electrical installations where rigid PVC conduit is the specified raceway. Common applications include underground conduit runs, wet or damp location wiring, and above-grade installations in non-hazardous classified areas. The glued connection method is standard for PVC conduit systems and provides a secure, solvent-welded joint. Installers working on service entrances, panel feeds, or branch circuit conduit runs will find this fitting appropriate for standard rigid PVC conduit termination work.

Key Features

• 1-inch trade size fits standard rigid PVC conduit
• Glued connection type for solvent-cement installation
• Insulated design protects conductors at the fitting transition
• Polyvinylchloride construction resists corrosion and moisture
• Rated for non-hazardous area applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fitting for use with 1-inch trade size rigid polyvinylchloride conduit systems in non-hazardous area electrical installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC Article 352 governing rigid PVC conduit. De-energize all circuits before working on any conduit system. Clean and dry conduit ends before applying solvent cement to ensure a proper glued bond. Do not use this adapter in hazardous classified locations.
