Overview

The ABB 040-5371 3/8" 90-degree Liquidtight Flexible Metal Conduit Connector delivers reliable cable management and environmental protection for industrial electrical installations. Engineered for use with 3/8" flexible metal conduit, this connector features a 90-degree angle to simplify conduit routing in confined spaces or where directional changes are required. The insulated construction prevents direct contact with conduit surfaces, enhancing electrical safety while maintaining system integrity. Key specifications include a 3/8" conduit size compatibility, UL Listed liquidtight performance, and CSA Certified water-tight functionality. The body and locknut are constructed from durable nylon, while the O-ring utilizes a high-quality nitrile material for reliable sealing. The temperature rating of 80°C and UL94-V2 flammability rating further support its suitability for demanding industrial environments. This connector is ideal for applications in manufacturing, construction, and industrial automation where secure, moisture-resistant conduit connections are essential. Its robust design withstands mechanical stress, dust, and liquid ingress, making it a dependable solution for cable protection in harsh conditions. The 90-degree angle design facilitates efficient installation and maintenance, reducing downtime and improving system reliability.

How to Install the 040-5371 Liquidtight Connector

Instructions for installing T&B® liquidtight connectors for flexible metallic conduit.

Estimated time: 15m

Tools needed:

Hacksaw or power band saw, Wrench, Hand protection, Eye protection

Supplies needed:

T&B® liquidtight connector, Locknut (if not pre-assembled), Sealing gasket (for knockout applications), PVC cement (if applicable)

  1. Prepare the Conduit End

    Cut the flexible conduit with a clean, square end. Use a metal jig and a sharp hacksaw (32 teeth/inch) or a power band saw (not exceeding 400 ft/minute) with a 24-32 teeth/inch wavy set blade. Do not use an abrasive wheel.

  2. Assemble the Connector Components

    For 5000, 7000, 9000 series, and PVC coated 3300 series connectors: Slide the gland nut onto the conduit, followed by the nylon sealing ring. Thread in the Safe Edge™ Cone. For PVC coated connectors, use a smooth jaw wrench for tightening. If metal is exposed, apply PVC cement.

  3. Install for Knockout Applications

    If using for knockout applications, use T&B® 140 series locknuts and 5260 series sealing gaskets, which must be purchased separately. For 7000 and 9000 series, order the locknut separately.

  4. Secure the Connector to the Box

    Insert the connector body into the knockout or mounting location on the box. For Chase® connectors, ensure the Chase® Nipple is correctly positioned inside the knockout. Lock the connector by tightening the Chase® Nipple to the body or by turning the body onto the Chase® Nipple. Ensure the 'O' ring is properly seated.

  5. Tighten the Gland Nut

    Tighten the gland nut to the specified torque based on the trade size of the fitting. Refer to the torque table in the documentation for exact values (e.g., 200 lb.-in. for 3/8" fittings, 300 lb.-in. for 1/2" fittings).

  6. Verify Installation

    Ensure all components are securely fastened and the connection is watertight. Disconnect power before installation and follow all national and local electrical codes. Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician.
