Cooper Crouse-Hinds Expansion and Deflection Joints and Couplings are available from KSCdirect:

XD Expansion/Deflection Coupling - Watertight, Corrosion-Resistant

Application: XD couplings can be installed indoors, outdoors, buried underground, or embedded in concrete in non-hazardous areas. XD’s are used with standard rigid conduit or PVC rigid conduit. (PVC requires rigid metal conduit nipples and rigid metal-to-PVC conduit adapters.) XD’s provide a flexible and watertight connection for protection of conduit wiring systems from damage due to movement.

Features:

• XD couplings accommodate the following movements without collapsing or fracturing the conduit, and damaging the wires it contains:

1. Axial expansion or contraction up to 3⁄4"

2. Angular misalignment of the axes of the coupled conduit runs in any direction to 30°

3. Parallel misalignment of the axes of coupled conduit runs in any direction to 3⁄4

• Inner sleeve maintains constant I.D. in any position and provides a smooth insulated wireway for protection of wire insulation

• Watertight flexible neoprene outer jacket is corrosion resistant and protects the

grounding strap and the attachment points of the hubs

• Tinned copper flexible braid grounding straps assure grounding continuity

• Stainless steel jacket clamps for strength and corrosion resistance

• Standard tapered electrical threads fit standard rigid conduit

• Integral hub bushing protects insulation of conductors

XJG Conduit Expansion Joints With Internal Grounding For Rigid Metal Conduit and IMC - Wet Locations

• Without the need for an external bonding jumper and clamps (up to 4")

• To couple together two (2) sections of conduit subject to longitudinal movement

• In long conduit runs to permit linear movement caused by thermal expansion and contraction.

• On long conduit runs to prevent conduit from buckling and ensuing circuit failures • Indoors or outdoors where conduit expansion occurs and there are wide temperature ranges

• In conduit runs that cross structural joints

• In conduit runs to prevent damage to conduit supports such as in a building or on a bridge

• With optional redundant visible grounding strap

XJG-EMT Conduit Expansion Joints With Internal Grounding For EMT Conduit

XJG expansion couplings are used with EMT Conduit:

• Without the need for an external bonding jumper and clamps

• To couple together two (2) sections of conduit subject to longitudinal movement

• In long conduit runs to permit linear movement caused by thermal expansion and

contraction.

• On long conduit runs to prevent conduit from buckling and ensuing circuit failures

• Indoors or outdoors where conduit expansion occurs and there are wide

temperature ranges

• In conduit runs that cross structural joints

• In conduit runs to prevent damage to conduit supports such as in a building or on

a bridge

• With optional redundant visible grounding strap

XJGD Combination Expansion/Deflection Coupling and Expansion Joint Internally Grounded

XJGD combination fittings are used with rigid metal conduit and IMC:

• To accommodate axial expansion, angular misalignment and parallel misalignment

• To couple together two (2) sections of conduit subject to longitudinal movement

• To maintain a ground connection without the need for an external bonding jumper and clamps

• In long conduit runs to prevent conduit from buckling and causing circuit failures

• Indoors or outdoors where conduit expansion occurs and there are wide temperature swings

• In conduit runs that cross structural joints

• In conduit runs to prevent damage to conduit supports such as in a building or on a bridge
