Thomas & Betts 5712 1" Neoprene Liquidtight Snap-In Knockout Plug
The Thomas & Betts 5712 is a 1" Neoprene snap-in knockout plug engineered to seal unused knockout openings in electrical boxes, conduit bodies, and enclosures. Built from flexible neoprene rubber, this liquidtight, snap-in knockout blank installs quickly without tools, snapping securely into the 1" knockout opening to close it off. Sealing unused knockouts helps keep moisture, dust, insects, and debris out of the enclosure interior, protecting wiring and connections inside.

This knockout plug is commonly specified alongside Thomas & Betts liquidtight fittings and conduit accessories for a consistent, code-compliant enclosure finish.
