Electrical Metallic Tubing

Electrical metallic tubing (EMT), also commonly called thin-wall, is a listed steel raceway of circular cross section, which is unthreaded, and nominally 10′ long. 20′ lengths are also available. EMT is available in trade sizes 1/2” through 4”. The outside is galvanized for corrosion protection and the inside has an approved corrosion-resistant organic coating. EMT is installed by use of set-screw or compression-type couplings and connectors. It is permitted to have an integral coupling comprised of an expanded, “belled” shape tube on one end with set screws. EMT with integral couplings is available in trade sizes 1-1/4 through 4.

The heavy-duty steel conduit resists splitting, kinking and flattening and is coated with zinc for corrosion resistance. Allied conduit has an E-Z pull interior coating provides a smooth surface for faster wire pulling.
