Overview

The ABB 5268 Liquidtight Sealing Gasket is a precision-engineered sealing solution for 2-1/2 inch conduit systems, designed to provide a secure, watertight, and dustproof barrier in harsh industrial environments. This gasket features a 316 stainless steel retainer ring for superior corrosion resistance, even in high-chloride or high-saline conditions, making it ideal for marine, coastal, and chemical processing applications. The thermoplastic molded seals deliver consistent performance across a wide temperature range, ensuring reliable operation in extreme heat or cold. Engineered for compatibility with standard 2-1/2 inch liquidtight flexible metal conduit (LFMC) and liquidtight flexible nonmetallic conduit (LNFC), the 5268 gasket integrates seamlessly into existing systems. The design locks the resilient sealing material in a steel retainer, preventing elongation and ensuring a high-quality seal that resists oil, coolants, hydraulic fluids, and water. The gasket meets NEMA 3R, 4, 6, and 13 ratings, as well as IP66/IP67 standards for ingress protection, providing robust defense against moisture, dust, and contaminants. Key applications include manufacturing plants, food and beverage production, outdoor installations, and facilities where environmental protection is critical. The compact design and easy installation reduce downtime and maintenance costs, while the stainless steel retainer and thermoplastic seals ensure long-lasting durability. The 5268 series is part of ABB’s 52/53 Series Liquidtight Fittings, a trusted solution for demanding industrial electrical installations requiring maximum protection and reliability.
