Thomas Betts Uny 105-TB Conduit Male Union 1/2 in Steel

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS UNY 105-TB is a steel, non-insulated conduit male union designed for 1/2 inch trade size rigid metal conduit (RMC) and intermediate metal conduit (IMC) systems. This straight, threaded fitting connects conduit runs at junction points where sections must be joined or separated without rotating the conduit itself. It is commonly installed by licensed electricians in commercial, industrial, and hazardous location wiring systems where a secure, code-compliant threaded mechanical connection is required. The threaded connection type ensures a tight, reliable fit suitable for demanding electrical installations.

This fitting is rated for use in both hazardous and non-hazardous locations, making it a versatile choice for industrial facilities, manufacturing environments, petrochemical installations, and other sites where conduit integrity and location ratings matter. It suits 1/2 inch trade size IMC and rigid conduit runs where a male union termination is specified. Electricians select this fitting when conduit sections need to be assembled and disassembled independently without spinning the entire run.

Key Features

• Threaded connection type for secure, code-compliant mechanical coupling
• Compatible with 1/2 inch trade size rigid metal conduit and IMC
• Steel construction for durability in industrial and commercial environments
• Non-insulated, straight connector configuration
• Rated for hazardous and non-hazardous area installations
• Male union design allows conduit disassembly without rotating the run

Compatibility

Designed for use with 1/2 inch trade size rigid metal conduit (RMC) and intermediate metal conduit (IMC) in both hazardous and non-hazardous locations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified, licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes. De-energize the circuit completely before working on any conduit assembly or disassembly. Use appropriate pipe wrenches or conduit tools to achieve a tight threaded engagement without over-stressing the fitting. Verify location hazard classification prior to installation to confirm the fitting meets the requirements of the specific environment.
