Product Description
The MARS 13172 is a non-metallic 90-degree elbow connector designed for use with Liquid Tite conduit in electrical installations. This Type B connector provides a smooth, snag-free transition point that protects conductors during pull-through, eliminating sharp edges that can strip wire insulation. Rated for use with both metallic and non-metallic Liquid Tite conduit, it fits a 1/2 inch trade size. UL Listed and CUL Listed, this connector meets the safety and listing requirements that licensed electricians and inspectors look for on the job.
This connector is suited for residential and light commercial electrical work where flexible Liquid Tite conduit terminates at a junction box, panel, or equipment enclosure. The 90-degree elbow configuration is used where conduit must make a right-angle turn at the point of connection, a common scenario at motor hookups, HVAC equipment, and control panels. Electricians will find the smooth bore reduces friction during wire pulls, speeding up rough-in and trim-out work.

- UL Listed and CUL Listed for code-compliant installations
Compatibility
Designed for use with metallic and non-metallic Liquid Tite conduit, Type B, in 1/2 inch trade size. Manufacturer cross-reference part number: 750-NMLT9050.
Installation Notes
Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize the circuit and lock out or tag out the panel before making any conduit or wiring connections. Hand-tighten the connector body securely to the conduit and enclosure knockout; avoid overtightening non-metallic fittings with tools, as excess torque can crack the body. Confirm the conduit seal is snug to maintain the liquid-tight rating after installation.
