Thomas Betts XPLFL124 Liquid-tight Conduit Coupling 1/2 in

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS XPLFL124 is a bronze liquid-tight conduit coupling designed for use in demanding electrical installations where moisture resistance and mechanical flexibility are required. This non-insulated fitting uses a compression connection method to join liquid-tight flexible conduit sections securely. Rated for hazardous location and water-resistant applications, it is built for environments where standard fittings are not adequate. The 1/2 inch trade size suits common branch circuit and equipment wiring runs. Licensed electricians and industrial maintenance technicians typically install this type of fitting in industrial plants, processing facilities, and commercial mechanical rooms.

This coupling is suited for 1/2 inch trade size liquid-tight flexible conduit in both hazardous location and water-resistant environments. Its flexible connector shape accommodates conduit movement and vibration, making it appropriate for equipment connections subject to movement or thermal cycling. Typical applications include motor terminations, control panel wiring, and equipment drops in areas classified for water exposure or hazardous conditions under the NEC. The bronze construction resists corrosion in wet and chemically active environments.

Key Features

• Bronze construction provides corrosion resistance in wet and chemically active environments
• Compression connection type ensures a secure, tool-assisted grip on liquid-tight flexible conduit
• Flexible connector shape accommodates conduit movement and equipment vibration
• Rated for hazardous location and water-resistant area applications
• Non-insulated design for standard grounding and bonding configurations
• 1/2 inch trade size fits common branch circuit and equipment wiring runs

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement fitting for 1/2 inch trade size liquid-tight flexible metal or non-metallic conduit systems used in hazardous location and water-resistant electrical installations.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes, particularly Article 350 governing liquid-tight flexible metal conduit. De-energize the circuit and verify zero voltage with a meter before beginning work. The compression fitting requires proper seating and hand-tightening followed by tool tightening to achieve a watertight connection. Verify that the conduit type and trade size match the fitting before installation.
