EMT Locknut Steel 1-1/4"

Overview:

The EMT Locknut Steel 1-1/4" is a key component in electrical conduit systems, specifically designed for securing Electrical Metallic Tubing (EMT) conduit to boxes, fittings, and other conduit connections. This locknut is crafted from high-quality steel, offering both durability and strength to ensure that the conduit is properly secured, preventing it from loosening or disconnecting over time. It is commonly used in commercial, industrial, and residential wiring installations, providing a reliable connection in various electrical applications.

Product Description:

The EMT Locknut Steel 1-1/4" is designed to be threaded onto the end of a conduit or fitting to secure it firmly in place. This locknut is typically used to attach EMT conduit to electrical boxes, providing a secure and stable connection that meets electrical code standards. The 1-1/4-inch size is commonly used in small- to medium-sized electrical installations, and the steel construction offers both strength and resistance to corrosion, ensuring long-term durability.

These locknuts are easy to install by hand, without the need for additional tools, making them ideal for quick, secure fittings. The steel material also makes them resistant to physical damage and environmental factors, ensuring a secure connection even in harsh conditions.
