Overview

The ABB ST245-B is a 45-degree PVC-coated Liquitite conduit connector designed for 2-inch (53 Metric) diameter conduit systems. This steel fitting features a minimum 0.040-inch (40 mil) thick PVC coating bonded to the exterior, providing superior corrosion resistance against moisture, chemicals, and environmental stressors common in industrial, commercial, and utility applications. The light blue PVC coating ensures quick visual identification in complex installations while meeting industry color-coding standards. Engineered for reliable performance, the ST245-B includes pressure-sealing sleeves that protect the connection point from liquid ingress, maintaining system integrity. The 45-degree bend design facilitates efficient conduit routing with minimal stress on the conduit, simplifying installation in tight spaces or where directional changes are required. The steel construction delivers structural durability, while the PVC coating extends service life in corrosive environments. Compliant with UL 467 for grounding and bonding, this connector meets NEC Section 500-2(a) requirements for hazardous locations including Class I, Div. 2; Class II, Div. 1 and 2; and Class III, Div. 1 and 2. The ST245-B is part of ABB's Ocal® PVC-coated liquid-tight conduit system, utilizing genuine T&B Liquidtight Systems® fittings to ensure quality installations. Standard offering includes dark gray (G) PVC coating, with light blue (B) available as a custom option for enhanced visibility. Ideal for electrical, HVAC, and plumbing systems where reliable isolation and leak-proof performance are critical. The connector's NPT hub threads ensure compatibility with standard conduit systems, while the ground ring provides secure electrical bonding. Manufactured in the US by ABB Installation Products, the ST245-B delivers dependable performance for both new construction and retrofit projects in demanding industrial environments.
