VEVOR has a wide selection of conduit fittings for electricians, builders, and do-it-yourself installers who need strong connections for all kinds of electrical conduit systems. Our selection of fittings has everything you need, whether you're installing new wiring through walls, connecting junction boxes, or finishing an industrial installation. VEVOR ensures you always have the right fit for the job by offering both standard PVC electrical conduit fittings and heavy-duty metal conduit fittings.
Looking for conduit fittings that provide secure connections, corrosion resistance, and compliance with electrical code requirements? For licensed electricians, general contractors, and skilled do-it-yourself installers who need parts that work reliably from the first connection for years to come, VEVOR conduit fittings are the way to go. Our conduit fittings are versatile enough to meet all of your real-world installation needs, from simple home runs to complicated industrial wiring systems.
To choose the right conduit fitting, you must first ensure it is the correct size for your conduit and the right type for your installation plan. Using the wrong size or type of fitting can result in loose connections, code violations, and costly safety risks.
The most important part of any electrical work is ensuring that the conduit fittings are the correct size for the conduit. VEVOR conduit fittings are available in all standard trade sizes, from 1/2-inch to 4-inch. This covers all sizes used in electrical systems in homes, businesses, and light- ndustrial facilities across the country.
Trade sizes refer to nominal conduit diameters rather than exact outside measurements. For example, a half-inch conduit fitting fits conduit with an outside diameter slightly larger than half an inch. Instead of measuring the pipe directly, always match the fitting's trade size to the written trade size on the conduit. This will keep you from having to fix size problems during installation.
Any conduit fitting that is even slightly too small makes installation harder, puts PVC electrical conduit fittings at risk of cracking during assembly, and stops metal conduit fittings from fully seating against the conduit surface. An oversized fitting is also a problem because it leaves gaps in the conduit system that let water, bugs, and other debris into the system. The result makes the wiring less safe and the work less reliable in the long run.
In any electrical system, couplings and connectors are the two most common types of conduit fittings. Knowing what each one does helps make sure that the right part always goes in the right place. VEVOR's electrical conduit fittings come in both types and a range of sizes and materials to meet all normal installation needs.
One coupling connects two straight pieces of conduit, keeping the wiring path continuous and sealed between the two pieces. With a coupling, you can get a clean, straight extension when one length of pipe isn't enough to get from one place to another. It is important for VEVOR conduit couplings to have exact internal dimensions so that conduit pieces fit completely and line up correctly, with no gaps or angular misalignment.
On the other hand, a connector connects a piece of tubing to a box, panel, or enclosure. Connectors have a compression or threaded end that fits through a hole in the box and is held in place by an internal locknut. It is important to choose the right connector type for your box entry point, such as a set-screw, compression, or threaded. This will ensure a strong mechanical and electrical connection between the conduit system and the structure it ends in.
In real life, straight runs are only a small part of installing conduit. When there are changes in direction, obstacles, or equipment locations, you need special conduit fittings like elbows, offsets, and specialty conduit fittings that keep the wire safe through corners and transitions without damaging the conductors inside.
Standard 90-degree and 45-degree bends are available in both PVC and metal VEVOR conduit fittings. With a 90-degree elbow, you can make right-angle turns at wall corners, floor penetrations, and equipment changes. A 45-degree elbow makes the change in direction smoother, making it easier to pull the wire through during installation. It also lowers the stress on the circuit when the bend doesn't need to be a full right angle.
With offset fittings, the conduit run can be routed horizontally or vertically to get around obstacles while remaining in line with the surface or wall. Long runs of conduit can expand and contract with temperature changes thanks to expansion fittings. This feature is especially important in outdoor or industrial settings, where temperature changes cause the conduit to expand and contract along its length.
Fully installing a conduit fitting requires more than just the main fitting. Locknuts, bushings, and grounding hardware ensure that every connection point is physically stable, electrically continuous, and protected from damage to the conductors' insulation at entry points.
There are locknuts on the body of the connector inside the electrical box, tightened against the box wall to keep the fitting from turning or pulling back through the hole while the wires are being pulled or during later work. VEVOR electrical conduit fittings come with locknuts that are compatible and the right size for each connection diameter. This feature means that you don't have to buy separate hardware from a different seller.
When you install bushings at the ends of conduit sections where wires enter boxes or panels, they create a smooth, rounded surface that protects the wire insulation from the sharp cut edge of the conduit. At termination places on metal conduit fittings, insulating bushings are especially helpful because bare metal edges could wear away conductor insulation over time, which could cause a fault inside the panel or enclosure.
The material a conduit fitting is made of determines where it can be used safely, how long it will last where it is installed, and whether it meets code requirements for certain applications. The materials VEVOR uses to make its conduit fittings are ideal for a wide range of real-world installation situations.
When installing electrical conduit underground, in wet areas, or where corrosion protection is important, PVC fittings are usually the best choice. PVC is rust-resistant, non-reactive with most soil and building-site chemicals, and remains strong across a wide range of temperatures without breaking down over time.
The Schedule 40 or Schedule 80 PVC materials used to make VEVOR PVC electrical conduit fittings meet UL listing standards for direct burial and wet-location applications. Schedule 40 fittings are good for normal underground runs in homes and light businesses. Schedule 80 fittings, on the other hand, add extra wall thickness and impact resistance for exposed areas, industrial settings, and uses where mechanical protection is important.
To assemble PVC electrical conduit fittings, apply PVC conduit cement to both the fitting socket and the conduit end. Then push the parts together and turn them a quarter turn to spread the glue evenly. Metallic conduit and associated metal fittings are part of the equipment's grounding path. This seal will last as long as the installation does, without the need for mechanical fastening.
Metal conduit fittings, such as those for EMT, rigid metal conduit, and intermediate metal conduit, are the best choice for outdoor installations, industrial settings, and applications where the electrical system needs to be protected from mechanical damage and maintain grounding continuity.
Depending on the type of fitting and the required material, VEVOR metal conduit fittings are made from steel, zinc-die-cast iron, or malleable iron. In industrial settings where conduit systems are in regular contact with other components, vibrate, and are subjected to impact, steel and malleable iron fittings offer the highest level of mechanical strength. When it comes to strength, corrosion resistance, and cost, zinc die-cast fittings are a good choice for most commercial and light industrial applications.
In commercial construction, EMT set-screw and compression fittings are the most popular types of metal conduit fittings. Set-screw fittings are easier to install and work best in dry indoor areas. Compression fittings, on the other hand, provide a watertight connection that is ideal for wet areas and outdoor sections of conduit that need to keep water out year-round.
In VEVOR conduit fittings, sizes are exact, materials are code-compliant, and there are fittings for every installation situation. The prices are low enough that it's practical to keep enough on hand for a full job. There is a VEVOR electrical conduit fitting for every wiring job. They have PVC conduit fittings for wet and underground areas, metal conduit fittings for industrial and commercial uses, and a full range of sizes from half-inch to four inches. Choose VEVOR to help ensure code-compliant, secure, and durable electrical installations.
People use PVC electrical conduit fittings in wet, underground, corrosive, and rust-prone environments. When mechanical strength and grounding continuity are the most important factors, metal conduit fittings are best for exposed indoor, industrial, and business installations. It is important to ensure the fitting material is suitable for the conduit type and construction area.
Match the trade size of the fitting to the trade size that is written on the conduit, not to the outside width that you measured. You can get VEVOR conduit fittings in standard trade sizes from 1/2-inch to 4-inch. Anywhere in the conduit system, using the correct trade size ensures full seating, proper alignment, and a safe connection.
Yes, but only metal conduit fittings rated for wet locations and compressed should be used in outdoor setups exposed to the weather. Standard set-screw metal conduit fittings can only be used inside when it is dry. VEVOR offers compression electrical conduit fittings that provide a secure seal at every connection point along the conduit route for runs that are completely outside or are likely to get wet.
Metallic conduit plugs are part of the equipment's grounding path and must stay in metal-to-metal contact throughout the installation. If you tighten the locknuts and set screws correctly, the wiring will stay connected. PVC conduit fittings are nonconductive and therefore require a separate equipment grounding conductor within the conduit system.
