Intermediate Metal Conduit
Simplify Installation, Save Time, Spend Less
As a cost effective alternative to Galvite® Electrical Rigid Metal Conduit-Steel, Republic Conduit's Intermediate Metal Conduit (IMC) is manufactured to ANSI specification C80.6 and UL standard 1242. It is made from high quality, flat rolled steel, and is produced using an Electric Resistance Welding process. The finished tube is uniform in outside diameter (OD), wall thickness and ductility.
Republic Conduit's IMC is fire-resistant. It doesn't burn, decompose, or give off harmful smoke or gases in a fire. It is also compatible with concrete and overall, allows our customers to install a quality, magnetically shielded and grounded electrical wiring system quickly
and cost-effectively. It is impact resistant and completely recyclable.
Features and Benefits
- Consistent Quality – Republic Conduit's IMC is manufactured for long life and provides complete physical and mechanical protection for any electrical wiring job. For eighty years, Republic Conduit's products have been and are today manufactured to all of the required specifications and customer needs.
- Cost-Effective – IMC's thin walls allow for lower material and shipping costs, while its consistently accurate metallurgical properties and smooth surfaces require less installation capital spent on wiring projects. This pipe has an extended shelf life, great for usage or storage without degradation in quality.
- Easier Installs – IMC's protective, slick, ID coating (Silverslick®) reduces friction when pulling / pushing the wires. The OD surfaces are zinc-coated for further corrosion protection (the entire finish stays hard and smooth in various climate conditions). An additional OD passivation treatment provides superior protection from rust.
- Trade sizes range from ½" to 4".
Available Sizes
Republic's IMC is provided with a color coded thread protector on one end and a coupling
on the other.
