Thomas & Betts 5342 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What sizes does the Thomas & Betts 45 degree insulated liquid-tight connector come in?
Three trade sizes: 1/2 inch, 3 inch, and 4 inch. The 3 inch is part number 5349 and the 4 inch is 5350. Pick the size to match the trade size of the liquidtight flexible metal conduit you are terminating, not the conductor count.
2) What is this 45 degree liquidtight connector made of, and will it hold up in a wet or outdoor location?
The body is malleable iron, which is the heavier-duty choice over die-cast zinc or nylon for liquidtight terminations in wash-down areas, rooftops, and exterior equipment runs. It is a liquidtight fitting, so the sealing gland compresses on the conduit jacket to keep moisture out of the enclosure.
3) Does the insulated version mean I do not need a separate bushing on the conduit end?
Correct. The throat on this Thomas & Betts fitting is insulated, so the conductors are protected from the metal edge as they pass into the box and no add-on insulating bushing is required. That is the difference between the insulated and non-insulated variants of the same connector.
4) Will a 3 inch liquidtight connector fit the knockout I already have?
A 3 inch trade size connector needs a 3 inch trade size knockout or punched hole, roughly 3-1/2 inches in diameter. If your enclosure only has a 2 inch opening you will need to punch it up rather than force a reducing washer, since liquidtight sealing depends on the locknut and sealing ring seating flat against the enclosure wall.
5) I need to order a replacement 4 inch liquidtight 45 degree connector - what is the part number?
The 4 inch size is Thomas & Betts 5350. The 3 inch is 5349. Both are the insulated 45 degree malleable iron liquidtight connector, so the same part works for either a new install or a one-for-one swap of an existing T&B fitting of the same trade size.
6) Can I use this fitting on liquidtight nonmetallic conduit, or only on the metallic type?
These are connectors for liquidtight flexible metal conduit. The gland and ferrule are cut for the metal-core jacketed product, so match the fitting to the conduit type you actually have on the job rather than mixing a metal-conduit fitting onto nonmetallic liquidtight.
