Technical Specifications

This sealing locknut accommodates 1" trade size rigid and IMC conduit with standard threading. The steel construction provides excellent mechanical strength while maintaining the sealing properties required for NEMA 3 rated installations. Product dimensions are 3.42" length, 1.12" width, and 0.7" height, with a lightweight 0.04 lb design that won't add unnecessary bulk to electrical connections. The unit is specifically designed for ordinary/non-hazardous locations and meets NEC/CEC compliance standards for professional electrical installations.

Installation Process

  1. Verify conduit end is properly cut and deburred for smooth threading
  2. Thread conduit through enclosure wall or panel opening
  3. Slide sealing locknut onto conduit with gasket facing the enclosure wall
  4. Thread locknut onto conduit until gasket contacts the enclosure surface
  5. Use appropriate wrench on flats to tighten locknut securely
  6. Verify gasket compression creates complete seal around conduit entry

Applications

Perfect for:

  • Outdoor Electrical Enclosures - Panel boards, disconnect switches, and control cabinets
  • Industrial Facilities - Manufacturing equipment connections and process control panels
  • Commercial Buildings - HVAC equipment, rooftop installations, and exterior lighting
  • Municipal Infrastructure - Traffic control systems, street lighting, and public facilities
  • Agricultural Applications - Irrigation controls, barn electrical systems, and outdoor equipment
  • Marine Environments - Dock electrical systems and waterfront installations
  • Food Processing - Washdown areas requiring moisture protection
  • Chemical Plants - Areas requiring enhanced environmental protection

Sealing Locknut System Benefits

Sealing locknuts provide superior protection compared to standard locknuts by incorporating gasket technology that creates a weatherproof barrier at conduit entry points. This prevents moisture infiltration that can cause corrosion, short circuits, and equipment failure. The integrated sealing design eliminates the need for separate gaskets or sealants, reducing installation time while ensuring consistent sealing performance across all connections.

Why Choose Steel Construction?

Steel construction provides the optimal balance of strength, durability, and cost-effectiveness for sealing locknut applications. Unlike plastic alternatives, steel sealing locknuts maintain their sealing properties under temperature cycling and mechanical stress. The corrosion-resistant finish ensures long-term performance in outdoor environments, while the precision threading guarantees secure installation that won't loosen over time. This makes steel sealing locknuts the preferred choice for professional electrical contractors who demand reliable, long-lasting connections.
