How to Install the 5344SST6HT Liquid-Tight Flexible Metallic Conduit Fitting

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for properly installing the 5344SST6HT stainless steel liquid-tight flexible metallic conduit fitting, ensuring a secure and liquid-tight connection to a box wall.

Estimated time: 15m

Tools needed:

Hacksaw (32 Tooth/In. no. set, sharp), Power band saw (24-32 Tooth/In. set, not more than 400'/minute), Metal jig (optional), Standard screwdriver, Hammer, Torque wrench (for gland nut tightening)

Supplies needed:

Liquid-tight flexible metallic conduit, 5344SST6HT Stainless Steel Liquid-Tight Fitting (includes SS Gland Nut, Nylon Sealing Ring, SAFE-EDGE® Ground Cone, SS Body), LNSS/100 Locknut (1" NPT, purchase separately), 5264 Seal Gasket (1" NPT, purchase separately)

  1. Prepare the Flexible Conduit

    Cut the end of the flexible conduit with a clean, square cut. Use a metal jig if available, or a sharp hacksaw with 32 teeth per inch. For high production, use a power band saw with 24-32 teeth per inch, not exceeding 400 feet per minute. DO NOT use an abrasive wheel, as this can damage the conduit.

  2. Assemble Fitting Components onto Conduit

    Slide the SS gland nut onto the prepared end of the flexible conduit. Next, slide the nylon sealing ring onto the conduit. Finally, thread the SAFE-EDGE® ground cone onto the conduit end, ensuring it is properly seated.

  3. Mount Fitting to Box Wall

    Insert the threaded body of the fitting through the knockout hole in the box wall. For liquid-tight and dust-tight installations, place the 5264 seal gasket over the fitting threads against the box wall on the inside. Then, thread the LNSS/100 locknut onto the fitting threads.

  4. Secure the Locknut

    Hand-tighten the locknut. Then, further tighten the locknut by an additional 1/4 turn using a hammer and a standard screwdriver, or an equivalent method, to ensure a secure and grounded connection to the box wall.

  5. Tighten the Gland Nut

    Tighten the SS gland nut to the UL recommended value. For the 5344SST6HT (1" NPT), the recommended tightening torque for the gland nut is 700 lb-in (79.1 N-m) to ensure a liquid-tight seal around the conduit.
