Features and Benefits


  • Consistent Quality – for eighty years, Republic Conduit's products have been and are today manufactured to all of the required specifications and customer needs. Because Republic Conduit's Galvite ERMC-S is manufactured for long life, it is durable, strong, and suitable for the harshest environmental conditions, providing complete mechanical and physical protection to any electrical wiring project. The metal is welded to ensure quality standards are met and exceeded. The inside surface of the pipe is obstruction-free and extra smooth, making wire pulling and pushing easy.
  • Lower Life-Cycle Costs – Republic's conduit is impact and fire resistant, chemically compatible with concrete, and resists cracking, flaking, peeling, and damage from severe bending. Its physical and mechanical properties ensure that the pipe has an extended shelf life, great for usage or storage without degradation in quality. The product is easy to cut, form and join.
  • System Grounding and Electromagnetic Interference Shielding – wires encased in Republic Conduit's Galvite® ERMC-S protect electric / electronic equipment from electromagnetic field damage.
  • Trade sizes range from ½" to 6".
