Overview

The ABB T&B Series 5300SST6 3/8" Liquidtight Fitting (SKU: 5341SST6) is a 45-degree elbow designed for flexible metallic conduit in corrosive and high-moisture environments. Constructed from type 316 stainless steel with a Duraplated ground cone, this fitting resists corrosion better than carbon steel or aluminum alternatives, extending service life in harsh industrial conditions. The fitting measures 2.18 inches (55.37mm) in length, 1.14 inches (28.96mm) in width, and 1.43 inches (36.32mm) in height, with a temperature range of 0°C to 105°C for outdoor and indoor applications. This fitting meets UL 514B and CSA C22.2 No. 18.3 standards, including assembly, pull, resistance, oil spray, polymer durability, and flammability tests. It also complies with IEC/EN 61386-1, -23 for conduit systems, including impact resistance (6 Joules) and tensile strength (500 N/2 min). The fitting provides ingress protection between enclosures, fittings, conduits, and seals when used with Series 5260 Seal Gaskets, achieving UL Listed type ratings of 4, 4X, 6, 12, and 13 for indoor use and 3, 3R, 4, 4X, 6, 12, and 13 for outdoor use. IEC ingress ratings include IP66, IP67, IP68, and IP69. High UV resistance prevents degradation from sunlight exposure, while the stainless steel construction ensures high strength and durability. The fitting is compatible with flexible metallic conduit and ensures secure, liquidtight connections in demanding installations such as chemical plants, food processing facilities, wastewater treatment, and marine environments where corrosion resistance is critical.

How to Install 53x1SST6 Stainless Steel Liquid-Tight Fittings

Complete installation guide for assembling and mounting 53x1SST6 series stainless steel liquid-tight fittings for flexible metallic conduit, ensuring a secure and liquid-tight connection.

Estimated time: 15m

Tools needed:

Hacksaw, Hammer, Standard Screwdriver, Wrench

Supplies needed:

Liquid-tight flexible metallic conduit, T&B Series LNSS/038 Locknut, T&B Series 5261 Seal Gasket

  1. Prepare the Flexible Conduit

    Cut the end of the flexible metallic conduit with a clean, square cut. Use a hacksaw with 32 teeth/inch or a power band saw (24-32 teeth/inch, not exceeding 400 ft/minute). Do not use an abrasive wheel for cutting.

  2. Assemble Fitting Components onto Conduit

    Slide the gland nut onto the prepared conduit. Next, slide the nylon sealing ring onto the conduit. Finally, thread the SAFE-EDGE® ground cone onto the conduit.

  3. Mount Fitting into Knockout and Secure with Locknut

    Insert the fitting body into the knockout hole of the box wall. Place a T&B Series 5261 seal gasket (required for liquid-tight installation) over the fitting threads on the inside of the box. Secure the fitting by hand-tightening a T&B Series LNSS/038 locknut onto the fitting threads, then further tighten it 1/4 turn with a hammer and a standard screwdriver or equivalent method.

  4. Tighten the Gland Nut

    Tighten the gland nut to the UL recommended value of 235 lb-in (26.6 N-m) to ensure a liquid-tight seal. Use a wrench for proper tightening.
