Thomas & Betts 5357SST6HT – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size conduit does the Thomas & Betts 5357SST6HT liquidtight fitting take?
The 5357SST6HT is a 2 inch fitting for liquidtight flexible metal conduit, with a 90 degree elbow body. Match it to 2 inch trade size LFMC, not to rigid or EMT.
2) Is the 5357SST6HT stainless steel all the way through, including the grounding cone?
Yes. Both the body and the ground cone are 316 stainless steel, so there is no plated steel or die cast part buried in the assembly to corrode first. That matters in wash-down, coastal, and chemical areas where a zinc or malleable iron fitting is the failure point.
3) Can I use this 2 inch fitting on non-metallic liquidtight conduit?
No. The 5357SST6HT is built for liquidtight flexible METAL conduit, and its ground cone is designed to engage the conduit's steel core. On LFNC there is nothing for the cone to grab, so you need a fitting made for non-metallic liquidtight.
4) Should I use a 90 degree liquidtight fitting or a straight one with a conduit bend?
Use the 90 when the conduit has to leave the box or enclosure square and you do not have the room to sweep 2 inch liquidtight, which has a large bend radius and fights you in tight equipment corners. A straight connector is the better pick where you have the clearance, since it puts one less restriction in the pull path. This 5357SST6HT is the fixed 90 degree version.
5) Does the 5357SST6HT need a separate grounding bushing?
No separate cone or bushing to buy. The fitting includes an integral ground cone, made of the same 316 stainless as the body, that bites the conduit's metal core to carry the equipment ground path through the connection.
6) What does the HT in 5357SST6HT mean?
HT designates the high temperature version of the 5357 series 2 inch stainless liquidtight elbow. Order the plain 5357SST6 instead if you do not need the elevated temperature rating.
7) What is the finish on the 5357SST6HT, and will it match other stainless hardware on the skid?
Bare metallic stainless, no paint or plating. It reads the same as other 316 stainless fittings and enclosure hardware on a process skid or wash-down panel.
