The ALEX® Straight Liquid Tight Connector is a professional-grade electrical fitting designed to terminate liquid-tight flexible metal conduits to junction boxes, distribution panels, or enclosures.
Engineered from high-strength electro-galvanized steel, this connector features a compact, precision-threaded design that ensures a secure, vibration-proof connection. It is the ideal solution for protecting cable runs in demanding industrial environments where sealing against dust, oil, and moisture is required.
Key Features & Benefits
Superior Sealing: Equipped with an integrated sealing gasket and locknut to provide excellent dustproof and waterproof capabilities (suitable for indoor and outdoor use).
Cable Protection: Features a high-quality blue insulating bushing inside the throat, effectively preventing cable abrasion and ensuring electrical safety during wire pulling.
Vibration Resistance: The external hexagonal locknut combined with a serrated lock washer guarantees a firm hold, minimizing the risk of loosening due to machinery vibration.
Durability: The electro-galvanized finish offers robust corrosion resistance, extending the service life in harsh construction environments.

Q: What is the purpose of the blue component inside the connector?
A: The blue component is an insulated throat bushing. It covers the sharp metal edges of the connector to protect the wire insulation from being cut or damaged during installation, ensuring electrical safety.
Q: Is this connector waterproof?
A: Yes. The integrated sealing gasket and tight-fitting locknut design provide excellent protection against moisture and dust ingress, making it suitable for damp locations.
Q: Can this be used with standard EMT conduit?
A: This specific connector is designed for Flexible Metal Conduit. However, it is compatible with standard knockouts found in boxes that also house EMT, IMC, or RMC systems. For connecting rigid pipes, please use our specific EMT or Rigid fittings.
Q: Do you offer OEM branding?
A: Yes. We support OEM production. We can customize packaging and labeling to match your brand requirements for distribution.
Q: What is the lead time for orders?
A: Our standard lead time is approximately 4 weeks. We recommend confirming specific delivery schedules with our sales team before placing large orders.
