Orbit Industries OF738 Flex Connector Squeeze Type 3 in

Product Description

The ORBIT INDUSTRIES OF738 is a straight squeeze-type flexible metal conduit connector designed for use in dry locations. It bonds flexible metal conduit (FMC) to electrical boxes or enclosures, providing a secure mechanical connection that protects conductors at the termination point. Built from zinc die-cast metal, the OF738 delivers rugged construction suited for the demands of commercial and residential electrical work. Licensed electricians install this fitting as part of standard FMC termination practice where a code-compliant, mechanically sound connection is required.

This connector is used wherever flexible metal conduit terminates at a junction box, panel enclosure, or electrical device box in dry indoor environments. The squeeze-type design allows the installer to secure the connector without threading, speeding up termination on both rough-in and finish work. It is a common fitting in commercial buildouts, residential panel work, and light industrial installations where FMC is the conduit method of choice.

Key Features

• Squeeze-type design allows tool-free conduit engagement at the connector body
• Zinc die-cast construction provides mechanical strength and durability
• 3-inch trade size accommodates large-diameter flexible metal conduit runs
• Rated for dry locations — suitable for interior electrical installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fitting for use with 3-inch trade size flexible metal conduit terminating at standard electrical junction boxes or enclosures in dry location applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC Article 348 governing flexible metal conduit. De-energize all circuits and verify lockout-tagout procedures before beginning work at any enclosure or panel. The connector body should be fully seated and the squeeze mechanism fully engaged before securing the locknut to the box knockout. Do not use this fitting in wet or damp locations.
