Aluminum Rigid Metal Conduit (RMC) is a threaded, thick-walled tubing that is connected by screwing connectors to the main tubes. It protects the cables inside from damage, impact, and electromagnetic interference that can harm sensitive equipment. Substituting rigid aluminum conduit for rigid steel can reward you with thousands of dollars of savings on a typical job.
Aluminum Electrical Metallic Tubing (EMT), sometimes referred to as “conduit,” is an unthreaded, thin-walled tubing that is connected using clamp-type fittings that slide onto the tubing and are secured with a set-screw. It is lighter and thinner than RMC, can be installed outdoors, and is relatively easy to bend and cut using normal field methods and tools. Our patented PullEase aluminum EMT is UL listed and meets the same code requirements as steel.
PullEase is designed with a low friction ridged interior. Pulling wires is quick and easy, with no lubrication required.
American Conduit products adhere to all applicable provisions of the National Electric Code® (NEC), the Underwriters Laboratories, the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), Canadian Standards Association (CSA), and federal specifications.
Employing the latest state-of-the-art technology for the design and manufacture of extrusion tooling, our application engineering, manufacturing and design specialists can assist you with custom solutions for all of your unique applications.
