Thomas & Betts 5358 Liquidtight Conduit Connector

Description:

The Thomas & Betts 5358 Liquidtight Connector 90° is used to terminate 2-1/2-inch liquidtight flexible metal conduit (LFMC) to electrical boxes and enclosures while providing a secure, liquidtight, and mechanically bonded connection. Commonly installed in industrial facilities, manufacturing plants, power generation sites, petrochemical facilities, and outdoor electrical installations, this insulated malleable iron connector features an electro zinc-plated chromate finish for long-lasting corrosion resistance. Maintenance teams and system integrators use this fitting for repair, retrofit, expansion, and replacement of liquidtight conduit systems. 

Applications:

The Thomas & Betts 5358 is designed to connect 2-1/2-inch liquidtight flexible metal conduit to junction boxes, switchgear, control panels, motor control centers, and electrical enclosures where a 90-degree conduit entry is required. Its insulated throat protects conductor insulation during installation, while the liquidtight design makes it suitable for indoor and outdoor locations exposed to continuous or intermittent moisture. It is widely used in commercial, industrial, OEM, utility, and hazardous-location applications.
