Abb Xc 272 3/4 Inch Squeeze Connector Ac Flex Die-cast

Product Description

The ABB INSTALLATION PRODUCTS xc 272 is a straight squeeze-type connector designed for use with armored cable and flexible conduit in electrical installations. Constructed from die-cast zinc, it accepts a 3/4 inch trade size conduit and accommodates a clamping range of 0.88 to 1.1 inches. The squeeze installation method allows for fast, tool-minimized termination without threaded fittings. At 1.59 inches in length with a single cable opening, this connector is a standard choice for electricians making clean, code-compliant transitions from flexible conduit runs to enclosures, panels, and junction boxes. It carries both UL and CSA approval for use in listed applications.

This connector is suited for commercial and residential electrical work wherever armored cable or flexible conduit requires a secure, straight-entry termination point. Typical applications include branch circuit wiring in steel stud construction, equipment connections requiring flexible whips, and retrofit work in existing conduit systems. The squeeze design speeds up installation in high-volume rough-in scenarios. It is packaged 250 units per outer pack, making it practical for electrical contractors stocking job-site supplies.

Key Features

• Straight squeeze-type installation requires no threading or separate clamp hardware
• Die-cast zinc construction provides durable, corrosion-resistant performance
• 3/4 inch trade size with a clamping range of 0.88 to 1.1 inches for flexible fit
• Single cable opening keeps the termination clean and organized
• UL and CSA listed for use in approved electrical installations
• Packaged 250 per outer pack for contractor-quantity purchasing

Compatibility

Designed for use with 3/4 inch trade size armored cable and flexible conduit. Suitable as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting wherever a straight squeeze-type connector is specified for AC cable or flex conduit terminations.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by licensed electricians in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). De-energize the circuit and verify lockout/tagout procedures before beginning work. The squeeze connector is inserted into the knockout and the cable or conduit is pushed in until the internal gripping mechanism seats firmly. Do not overtighten or use pliers on the body in a way that deforms the die-cast housing, as this may compromise the grip and grounding path.
