Overview

The ABB RB 162 Reducing Bushing is a steel conduit fitting designed to adapt larger conduit openings to smaller sizes. This specific model reduces a 2-inch conduit size down to a 3/4-inch size, making it suitable for use with both Rigid and Intermediate Metal Conduit (IMC) systems. Manufactured by ABB - Installation Products, this bushing ensures a secure and reliable transition between different conduit diameters, essential for maintaining electrical system integrity and compliance. Its steel construction provides durability and resistance to physical damage in industrial and commercial installations. The hex shoulder design facilitates convenient wrench tightening, ensuring a secure connection. This reducing bushing is a practical solution for electrical contractors and engineers needing to adapt conduit runs or connect to junction boxes and enclosures with different threaded entry sizes. The RB 162 is a key component for ensuring proper conduit termination and protection of electrical wiring.
