Slip-In Couplings Used to Straddle Conduit
Slip-In Couplings can be used to straddle the conduit. One advantage of this is
the couplings can be straddled on conduit sizes smaller than 2 1/2". However,
the largest conduit you can straddle using a slip-in coupling is 5" (by using the
6" optional slip-in coupling).
When using a slip-in coupling to straddle the conduit, the coupling must seat
against a concrete floor or similar structure capable of supporting 10,000 lbs. of
force.
Slip-In Couplings Used to Straddle Conduit Procedure:
1. Choose a coupling that is at least 1" larger than the conduit.
2. Place the coupling over the conduit. The conduit must NOT extend past the
end of the coupling. (See Figure 11a).
