• Professional Grade Build - Engineered for decades of reliable service
• Precision Manufacturing - Consistent fit and performance across installations
• Heavy-Duty Design - Built for demanding industrial environments

Technical Specifications

This professional connector accommodates 3" flexible metal conduit (FMC) with malleable iron construction for maximum durability. 90° angle configuration provides directional flexibility while non-insulated design maintains electrical grounding continuity. Clamp type connection method ensures reliable mechanical attachment meeting NEC/CEC requirements for FMC installations.

Installation Process

1. Thread connector onto electrical box or enclosure hub
2. Insert flexible metal conduit into connector opening
3. Position conduit to achieve desired 90° routing angle
4. Tighten clamp mechanism to secure FMC connection
5. Verify secure mechanical attachment and proper grounding
6. Complete installation per NEC/CEC FMC requirements

Applications

Ideal for:

• Industrial Machinery - Motor connections requiring flexible positioning
• Equipment Vibration Isolation - Protecting electrical connections from mechanical stress
• Tight Space Installations - Where rigid conduit cannot accommodate routing
• Directional Changes - 90° turns in electrical conduit systems
• Commercial HVAC - Flexible connections to rotating equipment
• Manufacturing Facilities - Heavy-duty FMC applications

FMC System Benefits

Flexible Metal Conduit provides essential advantages in dynamic environments: accommodates equipment movement and vibration, allows routing in confined spaces where rigid conduit isn't practical, provides excellent mechanical protection for conductors, and offers installation flexibility while maintaining code-compliant electrical grounding when properly installed with appropriate connectors.
