ALEX® Galvanized Conduit Locknut (Metric)
APC-281 ~ APC-290
(Spanish Reference: TUERCA GALVANIZADA)
Product Definition
The ALEX® Galvanized Conduit Locknut is a specialized heavy-duty fastening component designed to securely terminate threaded conduits or connectors to electrical junction boxes and enclosures.
Manufactured from high-grade steel with a galvanized finish, these locknuts provide superior corrosion resistance and mechanical strength. They effectively "bite" into the box wall to ensure ground continuity and prevent loosening due to vibration in industrial and commercial environments.
Key Features & Benefits
Secure Fastening: Engineered to provide a tight, vibration-proof seal between the conduit fitting and the box.
Corrosion Protection: The galvanized coating ensures long-lasting durability and resistance to rust, suitable for indoor and semi-outdoor applications.
Heavy-Duty Construction: Made from robust steel to withstand high torque during installation without stripping.
Metric Compatibility: Precision-threaded to fit standard IEC metric conduit fittings (20mm - 110mm).
