Overview

The ABB SPL16/M20/M is a 3/8" (16mm) nickel-plated brass liquid-tight straight swivel fitting with a fixed external M20 metric thread, designed for secure conduit connections in industrial environments. Constructed from corrosion-resistant nickel-plated brass with a co-polyester seal and nylon inserts, this fitting delivers high impact and UV resistance for long-term reliability. The straight swivel design allows for easy installation and precise alignment while preventing stress on connected lines. Certified to IP66, IP67, IP68 (10 bar for 30 minutes), and IP69 ingress protection ratings, it maintains system integrity in static (-65°C to +150°C) and moving (-45°C to +150°C) applications. The fitting is self-extinguishing and halogen-free, meeting CE, BSI Kitemark KM35161, UL514B, AS/NZS 2053.1, and AS/NZS 2053.8 standards. Suitable for Type SPL, SPL-EF, SPLHC, and SPUL conduit systems, this fitting is ideal for industrial fluid and pneumatic systems requiring liquid-tight, moisture-resistant connections. The external thread design allows insertion into threaded entries or knockouts with supplied locknuts for secure mounting. The nickel-plated brass construction ensures durability in harsh conditions, while the co-polyester seal provides a reliable barrier against liquids and contaminants. The nylon inserts enhance grip and prevent loosening, ensuring a secure connection even under vibration or mechanical stress. Its design accommodates both static and dynamic applications, making it versatile for various installation scenarios. The M20 metric thread size ensures compatibility with a wide range of conduit systems and components, while the liquid-tight feature prevents the ingress of moisture, dust, and other environmental factors.
