Crouse-Hinds 709DC – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What trade sizes do the Crouse-Hinds squeeze connectors come in, and which part number is which?
Ten trade sizes run from 3/8 inch up to 3-1/2 inch. The catalog numbers go 707DC for 3/8 inch, 708DC for 1/2 inch, 709DC for 3/4 inch, 710DC for 1 inch, 711DC for 1-1/4 inch, 712DC for 1-1/2 inch, 713DC for 2 inch, 714DC for 2-1/2 inch, 715DC for 3 inch, and 721DC for 3-1/2 inch. Note the jump in numbering at the largest size, 721DC rather than 716DC.
2) Can I use a Crouse-Hinds squeeze connector on liquidtight flexible conduit?
No. These squeeze connectors are built for FMC, standard flexible metal conduit (Greenfield), and nothing else. Liquidtight flexible metal conduit needs a liquidtight fitting with a sealing gland and O-ring to keep the rating intact. A squeeze connector on LFMC gives you no seal at the termination.
3) Are these Crouse-Hinds FMC connectors approved for hazardous locations?
No. The area classification is ordinary, non-hazardous locations only. For a Class I or Class II area you need a fitting listed for that classification, not this one. Ordinary-location use covers commercial, industrial, institutional and healthcare work in non-classified spaces.
4) For a 1/2 inch flex whip to a rooftop unit disconnect, which one of these do I order?
Match the connector trade size to the flex trade size, so 1/2 inch FMC takes the 708DC. One caution: a rooftop location is generally a wet location, and these are non-insulated squeeze connectors for ordinary indoor conduit termination with no sealing gland. For the exposed portion of an HVAC whip outdoors, use liquidtight flex with liquidtight fittings.
5) Non-insulated FMC connector versus insulated throat - does it matter for my pull?
These are non-insulated, so the throat is bare zinc die cast rather than a nylon or plastic bushing. Fine for most conductor pulls into a box, but where your local inspector or the job spec calls for an insulated throat on the conductor entry (common with larger THHN pulls), you want the insulated version instead. The non-insulated body also carries grounding continuity straight through the connector.
6) Do I need to thread the conduit to use these connectors?
No threading. The squeeze style clamps the FMC with a saddle and screws, so you cut the flex, seat it in the connector and tighten. That is the whole reason contractors reach for squeeze connectors over threaded fittings on flex runs.
7) Will a zinc die cast squeeze connector pass inspection on a commercial job?
The Crouse-Hinds 700DC series squeeze connectors are built to NEC and CEC standards for FMC termination in ordinary locations, which is what an inspector is looking for on standard commercial and industrial conduit work. Zinc die cast gives you the corrosion resistance for interior commercial environments.
8) Can I standardize on one FMC connector across a whole building's MRO stock?
Yes, and that is the practical case for stocking the 700DC series. One squeeze style, one material, one straight body, in ten trade sizes from 3/8 inch through 3-1/2 inch, covers nearly every FMC termination in a commercial or institutional building's non-hazardous areas. Most facility crews move fastest on 707DC, 708DC and 709DC (3/8, 1/2 and 3/4 inch) for fixture whips and small equipment drops.
