EMT to FMC fitting

[conmgt]

Hi,

I need to go from 1 1/4" EMT to 1 1/4" FMC and can't seem to find a fitting above 1" that does that. Has anyone seen one?
I guess I could do an EMT connector to a rigid coupling to a FMC fitting but that seems a little silly. Is there such a thing as a female EMT or FMC connector?

Some woukd argue that the connector to coupling to connector is not code compliant.

I might argue it too. What's my solution, a NEMA 1 box?

Given the code dilemma I thought that some manufacturers were actually making larger transition fittings.

EMT connector to a rigid coupling to a FMC fitting, I think that is the only option you unless you want to install a Jbox in between.

Sometimes, the UL listings do not make any sense, except they are to make cents for the manufacturer.

O-Z/Gedney has two products, an EMT Combination Coupling for 1 1/4 EMT to FMC and a 22" long "flexible EMT" fitting. The latter is has an EMT connector to which is attached a 22" long flexible conduit. Sounds $$$

click one of the links.

Here's the first fitting but the picture looks like its 1/2" http://www.drillspot.com/products/6...o_flexible_metal_conduit_combination_coupling

You could consider using a C style conduit body in place of the ridgid coupling or enclosure.
