Overview

The ABB 1-1/2" Short Elbow (SKU: 4234) is a malleable iron fitting designed for use with Electrical Metallic Tubing (EMT) conduit systems. This short elbow provides a 90-degree bend to change conduit direction while maintaining electrical continuity and mechanical strength. Constructed from malleable iron, it offers superior corrosion resistance and durability compared to standard steel fittings, making it suitable for indoor and outdoor applications where environmental exposure is a concern. This fitting is compatible with 1-1/2" EMT conduit, ensuring a secure connection without the need for additional threading or welding. The short design minimizes conduit displacement while providing the necessary directional change, ideal for tight spaces or where conduit routing requires minimal protrusion. It meets NEC (National Electrical Code) standards for grounding and bonding when installed with proper grounding methods. Common applications include commercial buildings, industrial facilities, and residential electrical systems where EMT conduit is specified. The malleable iron construction ensures long-term reliability under typical electrical installation conditions, including vibration and moderate mechanical stress. For conduit systems requiring a durable, code-compliant elbow fitting, the ABB 1-1/2" Short Elbow is a reliable choice.
