Abstract
A liquid-tight fitting includes a connector, a seal, and a fastener member. The connector has a first and a second end, a shoulder located between the first and second ends, and a segment that extends from the shoulder to the first end. The segment has an outer surface. The seal has an inner surface in contact with the outer surface of the segment, an outer edge, and first and second seal ends joining the inner surface and the outer edge. The seal surrounds a portion of the segment such that the first seal end abuts against the shoulder. The fastener member is moveably secured to the first end of the connector, and has an end that engages the second seal end to cause the seal to compress between the shoulder and the fastener member. The seal member is adapted to deform toward the segment when compressed.
