- Tighten nut to ensure a leakproof seal.
LiQuik™ No-Disassembly Installation
- Slide conduit inside the fully assembled connector.
- Turn connector assembly or conduit until ferrule threads engage the conduit spirals.
- Lock the ferrule into place – Two pins prevent the ferrule from spinning.
- Tighten gland nut for a secure, leakproof connection.
