3/4" WATERTITE HUB (Product Description)
A 3/4-inch Watertite hub is a weatherproof conduit hub fitting used to connect 3/4" threaded conduit to electrical enclosures, providing a sealed, water-resistant entry point for wiring.
Product Description
This is a rain-tight (Watertite) conduit hub fitting designed to mount onto an electrical box, panel, or enclosure. It allows 3/4-inch threaded conduit (typically rigid or EMT with threaded fittings) to be securely attached while maintaining a weatherproof seal.
The “Watertite” designation means it is designed for outdoor or wet-location use, helping prevent water, dust, and debris from entering the electrical enclosure at the conduit entry point.
These hubs are commonly used in outdoor electrical systems, industrial installations, and equipment enclosures exposed to moisture.
