Overview

This ABB 2-1/2 Inch 90 Degree Aluminum Liquidtight Connector, SKU 5258AL, is designed for secure and reliable conduit connections in industrial settings. Manufactured by ABB - Installation Products, this non-insulated connector facilitates a 90-degree turn for liquidtight conduit systems. Its aluminum construction offers inherent corrosion resistance, making it suitable for environments where moisture and certain chemicals may be present. The 2-1/2 inch trade size ensures compatibility with standard conduit of the same dimension. Key Specifications: * **Manufacturer:** ABB - Installation Products * **SKU:** 5258AL * **Type:** 90 Degree Liquidtight Connector * **Material:** Aluminum * **Insulation:** Non-insulated * **Trade Size:** 2-1/2 Inch This connector is essential for creating sealed pathways for electrical wiring, protecting conductors from dust, dirt, oil, and water ingress. The 90-degree angle is crucial for navigating tight spaces and directing conduit runs effectively. Its non-insulated design is appropriate for applications where electrical isolation is not a primary concern for the connector itself, but rather for the enclosed wiring.
