Thomas & Betts 5352SST6 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What conduit size does the Thomas & Betts 5352SST6 liquidtight fitting take?
The 5352SST6 is a 1/2 inch fitting, so it terminates 1/2 inch liquidtight flexible metal conduit and lands in a 1/2 inch knockout or threaded hub.
2) Is this Thomas & Betts fitting suitable for a washdown or coastal saltwater environment?
It is built from 316 stainless steel, the grade specified where chloride exposure is a concern, so food processing washdown areas, wastewater plants and coastal or marine installations are the normal use. The ground cone is Duraplated.
3) Will the 5352SST6 work with ordinary flexible metal conduit, or only liquidtight?
It is a liquidtight fitting, meaning it uses a sealing gland against the PVC jacket of liquidtight flexible metal conduit. Plain unjacketed FMC (Greenfield) has no jacket for the gland to seal on, so use a standard FMC connector for that instead.
4) Do I need a separate grounding bushing with the 5352SST6?
No. The fitting has a built-in Duraplated ground cone that bites the conduit's metal core and carries the bond through the fitting body, so no add-on grounding bushing is required for the conduit-to-box bond.
5) Should I use a 90 degree liquidtight connector or a straight one with a sweep?
A 90 degree fitting like this one turns the conduit right at the enclosure, which is what you want when the box sits tight to a wall, a motor housing or a pump skid and there is no room to bend the flex. Use a straight connector when you have space to make the sweep in the conduit itself and want the gentler bend radius for pulling conductors.
6) Can I use a steel or zinc die-cast connector instead of stainless on a stainless enclosure?
Not without risk. Mixing a plated steel or zinc fitting into a 316 stainless enclosure in a wet or chloride environment invites galvanic and pitting corrosion at the joint, which is the reason the 5352SST6 is made in 316 stainless throughout. If the specification calls out all-stainless hardware, match it.
7) What finish will the Thomas & Betts 5352SST6 look like on the job?
Bare metallic stainless, not painted or colored. It is the natural 316 stainless finish, so it blends with stainless enclosures and strut on food plant and marine work.
