Appleton 28-300 3 Inch Malleable Iron Squeeze Connector

Product Description

The APPLETON 28-300 is a 3-inch malleable iron squeeze-type conduit connector designed for secure, reliable connections in electrical conduit systems. Built from malleable iron with a stainless steel screw, this connector provides corrosion resistance and mechanical strength in demanding installations. The squeeze design allows for fast, tool-minimal attachment to enclosures, junction boxes, and conduit bodies. Licensed electricians and electrical contractors typically install this fitting in commercial and industrial environments where conduit integrity and long-term durability are required.

The 28-300 is suited for 3-inch conduit runs in commercial and industrial electrical installations. The malleable iron construction makes it appropriate for use in locations where the fitting may be exposed to moisture, mechanical stress, or temperature variation. It fits standard 3-inch conduit knockout openings on panels, enclosures, and conduit bodies. This connector is a practical choice wherever a reliable squeeze-type conduit termination is needed at the 3-inch trade size.

Key Features

• 3-inch trade size for use with standard 3-inch electrical conduit
• Malleable iron body provides impact resistance and mechanical durability

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize all circuits before working in or around the enclosure where this connector will be installed. Ensure the conduit knockout opening is clean and free of burrs before seating the connector. Do not overtighten the stainless steel screw beyond hand-snug plus a firm quarter-turn, as excessive force may crack the malleable iron body.
