EMS conduit Pipe?

[clemsonguy1125]

But the one Tech was talking about could, cause EMS conduit is galvinised steel

[Crna Legija]

yer it can you have to spinn it around till it makes a cut, i like it coz it dead strat perfect for the seal on piston valves

[clemsonguy1125]

I just use the factory cut side

[ramses]

1.5" IMC conduit has an ID of 1.7" Golf ball has diameter 1.68". Mcmaster part #: 7385K75

$30 for 10', but it ships freight.

Sch 10 Aluminum is actually cheaper.

Insted of expoxying fittings to the EMT what about using push connect or compression fittings? It would be more expensive but would provide a stronger joint

[clemsonguy1125]

What do you mean push connections

[metalmeltr]

Gatorbite or Sharkbite push connect fittings that are able to be used on copper,pvc,PEX, and steel pipe. If the outside diamiter of the emt is the same you could use the sharkbite fittings on the emt.

[clemsonguy1125]

Are they like quick connects

[metalmeltr]

not exactly, they seal with an o ring around the pipe and lock onto the pipe with teeth inside the fitting, to release the fitting you need a seperate tool, a clip that goes around the pipe that you push toward the fitting to release it.
