How to Install the 5353-PT Push-in Liquidtight Flexible Metal Conduit Fitting

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for properly installing the 5353-PT series push-in liquidtight flexible metal conduit fitting, ensuring a secure and sealed connection. WARNING: Disconnect power before installation to avoid risk of shock. Installation must be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with national or Canadian electrical codes. Failure to follow instructions may result in loss of equipment, injury, and/or death.

Estimated time: 20m

Tools needed:

Sharp hacksaw or band saw, Burr removal tool, Torque wrench

Supplies needed:

Listed liquidtight flexible metal conduit, 5353-PT series fitting

  1. Prepare the Conduit

    Cut the liquidtight flexible metal conduit using a sharp hacksaw or band saw, ensuring the end cut is clean and square. Carefully remove any burrs or frayed material from the cut edge to prevent damage to the fitting's sealing components.

  2. Prepare the Fitting for Insertion

    Do not disassemble the fitting. Lightly spin the Gland Nut down until you feel minor resistance. At this point, the Sealing Ring and Ground Cone chamfer are in contact, preparing the fitting for conduit insertion.

  3. Insert the Conduit into the Fitting

    Align the prepared conduit and carefully push it onto the exposed end of the Ground Cone. Once the conduit end has started into the throat of the Sealing Ring, firmly push the conduit completely in until it bottoms out. To ensure full insertion, mark the conduit from the cut end at the depth specified in the installation table (e.g., 13/16” for 3/8” or 1/2” trade size, 7/8” for 3/4”, 1-3/16” for 1”). When fully inserted, this mark should be level with the top of the sealing ring. Do not pull back on the conduit once it is fully inserted.

  4. Secure the Gland Nut

    Torque the Gland Nut to the specified value found in the installation table (e.g., 200 lbs.-in. for 3/8”, 300 lbs.-in. for 1/2”, 500 lbs.-in. for 3/4”, 700 lbs.-in. for 1”). The fitting must be fully torqued for proper performance and liquidtight sealing. Ensure the conduit remains fully inserted during this step.
