Thomas & Betts LTGES12B-A LFMC GP 5IN BLK 8M/25FT

The LTGES12B-A is liquid tight flexible metallic conduit, built on a galvanised steel core with a black jacket. Liquid tight metallic conduit is the type used where a flexible connection has to keep moisture, oil mist, or washdown spray out of the raceway, such as motor and pump whips, rooftop HVAC units, and machine connections. The steel core also gives the mechanical protection that a nonmetallic flexible conduit does not.

No. The LTGES12B-A ships as a 25 ft (8 m) coil of conduit only. You order liquid tight connectors separately, matched to the conduit trade size and to the box or enclosure knockout, and you need one at each end of every run to keep the connection sealed.

Go metallic, like the Thomas & Betts LTGES12B-A, where the whip takes physical abuse or where you want a steel core behind the jacket for crush and impact resistance. Nonmetallic liquid tight is lighter and easier to route in tight spots and suits low-abuse, corrosive-atmosphere runs. Either way the conduit is only rated liquid tight once it is terminated with listed liquid tight fittings at both ends.

Order it as Thomas & Betts LTGES12B-A. That is the manufacturer part number for the black, galvanised steel liquid tight flexible metallic conduit supplied in a 25 ft (8 m) coil. Distributors cross-referencing a bid should quote that number rather than a generic LFMC description, since jacket color, core material, and coil length all vary across the line.
