Thomas Betts 3112 Fmc Conduit Connector 1/2 Inch Steel

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS 3112 is a straight, insulated conduit connector designed for use with flexible metal conduit (FMC). It uses a set screw connection method to secure the conduit fitting to the box or enclosure, providing a reliable mechanical connection in non-hazardous locations. Constructed from steel, this 1/2 inch trade size connector is suited for commercial and residential electrical installations where FMC terminations are required at junction boxes, panels, or equipment enclosures. Electricians rely on this fitting type for its straightforward installation and secure grip on standard FMC.

This connector is intended for use in non-hazardous area applications involving 1/2 inch trade size flexible metal conduit. It is commonly installed where FMC runs terminate at outlet boxes, enclosures, or electrical panels in both new construction and retrofit wiring work. The straight profile keeps the conduit run aligned with the knockout entry point, and the insulated throat helps protect wire insulation from the cut metal edge of the conduit end.

Key Features

• Set screw connection for secure mechanical attachment without specialized tooling
• Straight connector shape for direct, aligned entry into knockouts
• Insulated throat protects conductor insulation at the conduit termination point
• Steel construction for durability in standard wiring installations
• Rated for non-hazardous area use
• 1/2 inch trade size fits standard FMC of the same trade size

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use connector for 1/2 inch trade size flexible metal conduit (FMC) in non-hazardous electrical installations.

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 confirm voltage absence with a meter before working at any enclosure or panel. Insert the FMC end into the connector, then tighten the set screw firmly to secure the fitting before completing the box or panel knockout connection. Avoid over-tightening the set screw to prevent damage to the conduit jacket or fitting threads.
