Core offering

Republic Conduit manufactures and sells electrical steel conduit products — including Electrical Metallic Tubing (EMT), Intermediate Metal Conduit (IMC), Galvite® Electrical Metal Conduit Steel, and Aluminum Rigid Conduit — across a full range of trade sizes. The company is the only U.S. manufacturer to electrogalvanize EMT and IMC, producing uniform, non-flaking zinc coatings that protect the entire tube including the pipe ends. It also produces structural tubular products (HSS, Standard Pipe, Sprinkler Pipe, Piling, Mechanical Tube) for general construction and infrastructure applications.

Product overview

Republic Conduit (Nucor Tubular Products) offers a comprehensive portfolio of electrical raceway and steel tubular products. The core product line includes Electrunite® Electrical Metallic Tubing (EMT) in standard and color variants, Intermediate Metal Conduit (IMC), and Galvite® Electrical Metal Conduit Steel—all featuring proprietary electrogalvanizing technology that applies uniform zinc coatings without flaking or chipping. The company also provides Aluminum Rigid Conduit for specialized applications. Beyond electrical products, the portfolio extends to structural steel products including HSS (A500 & A1085), Standard Pipe (A53), Sprinkler Pipe (A135/A795), Piling (A252), and Mechanical Tube (A513). These steel conduit and tubular products are characterized by fire and impact resistance, chemical compatibility with concrete, complete recyclability, EMI shielding, and physical/mechanical protection for wiring systems.
