Appleton 4Q-450T 1/2 in 45 Degree Insulated Liquidtight Connector

Product Description

The APPLETON 4Q-450T is a 1/2 inch 45-degree insulated liquidtight conduit connector designed for use in conduit wiring systems where a secure, watertight termination is required at an angled entry point. This fitting accepts liquidtight flexible metal conduit (LFMC) and provides an insulated throat to protect wire insulation at the point of entry. It is typically installed by licensed electricians working on commercial, industrial, or residential electrical systems that route flexible conduit to enclosures, panels, or equipment.

This connector is suited for applications where a 45-degree angled entry is needed to reduce conduit stress or accommodate tight installation spaces. Common install scenarios include motor connections, HVAC equipment wiring, and other locations requiring flexible conduit terminations at junction boxes or electrical enclosures. The insulated throat helps prevent abrasion damage to conductors where they enter the fitting.

Key Features

• 45-degree angled body reduces conduit bend stress in tight or offset installation spaces
• 1/2 inch trade size fits standard 1/2 inch liquidtight flexible metal conduit
• Insulated throat protects wire insulation at conduit entry point
• Liquidtight design provides a watertight seal at the conduit termination
• Compact form factor suits enclosure knockouts and panel entries

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fitting for use with 1/2 inch liquidtight flexible metal conduit in standard electrical conduit systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). De-energize the circuit and verify the absence of voltage before beginning conduit termination work. Ensure the connector is fully seated and the locknut is tightened securely against the enclosure wall to maintain the liquidtight seal. Do not overtighten to the point of deforming the fitting body or insulated throat.
