Overview

The NSI Industries SGBS-38840 is a 3-inch insulated split bushing designed for grounding applications in industrial electrical systems. Constructed from durable steel, this split bushing installs after wire pulling, eliminating the need for burn-through techniques or puller tools. Its split design allows for easy installation around existing wires without disassembly, saving significant time and labor during conduit installation or maintenance. The insulated coating prevents electrical shorts and corrosion, ensuring long-term reliability in harsh environments. Compatible with standard 3-inch conduit systems, this grounding bushing meets industrial safety standards for electrical grounding applications. Unlike solid bushings, the split design reduces installation friction and minimizes wire damage during pull-through operations. Ideal for retrofits, upgrades, or new installations where quick access and grounding integrity are critical. NSI Industries' SGBS series is trusted in commercial, industrial, and utility applications where reliable grounding and wire protection are essential.
  • 3-inch size fits standard conduit systems
  • Steel construction for durability and grounding reliability
  • Insulated coating prevents electrical shorts and corrosion
  • Split design installs after wire pull—no burn-through or pullers needed
  • Reduces installation time and labor costs in conduit systems
