Southwire LQA1350I Liquid-tight Straight Zinc Connector 3.5 in

Product Description

The SOUTHWIRE LQA1350I is a straight, insulated liquid-tight box connector made from zinc construction. It is used to terminate liquid-tight flexible metal conduit at electrical enclosures, junction boxes, and panel knockouts. The insulated throat protects wire insulation during pull-through and helps meet code requirements for conductor protection at conduit terminations. At 3.5 inches, this connector is sized for larger conduit runs common in commercial and industrial electrical installations. Licensed electricians and journeymen typically install this fitting as part of a liquid-tight conduit system in wet, damp, or oil-exposed environments.

This connector is suited for straight-entry terminations where liquid-tight flexible metal conduit connects to an enclosure. It is commonly used in commercial buildings, manufacturing facilities, and mechanical rooms where moisture resistance and a secure mechanical connection are required. The straight body design is appropriate when conduit runs approach the box at a perpendicular angle, simplifying installation and reducing stress on the conduit jacket.

Key Features

• Straight body design for direct perpendicular conduit-to-box terminations
• Zinc construction provides corrosion resistance in damp and wet locations
• Insulated throat protects conductor insulation at the point of entry
• Sized at 3.5 inches for larger liquid-tight flexible metal conduit runs
• Compatible with standard knockout openings on electrical enclosures and panels

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fitting for use with liquid-tight flexible metal conduit systems at standard electrical enclosure knockouts.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). De-energize all circuits and verify with a meter before beginning work at any enclosure. Thread the connector into the knockout and tighten the locknut securely to maintain a reliable mechanical and electrical bond. Avoid over-tightening, which can crack the fitting body or damage the insulated throat.
