I would like to hang a few 4 foot fluorescent shop lights. Preferred hanger would be 1/2" conduit, vertical, of course. Is there a conduit fitting available that can take the weight of the fixture (2 conduits each holding half a fixture). I know that some of the old timers had 1/2" conduit fittings that could be crimped on. All I can find today for conduit fittings is the simple sleeve with the set screw. Afraid it might pull loose. Would like to go conduit instead of chain due to the cost of chain. Conduit is VERY inexpensive compared to other alternatives. Maybe I can get enough bite to put 1/2" NPT threads on the conduit???
Thanks,
