Abstract

A liquid-tight fitting is provided to connect generally non-compressible plastic conduit and electrical cable to a connection of some type. The fitting has a self-adjusting rigid plastic gland, which has a body portion with a relatively thin sleeve extending axially away from the body portion for encircling the conduit or cable. A nut threaded on the body of the fitting compresses the sleeve into sealing engagement with the conduit and fitting and to positively interconnect the conduit and connection to provide strain relief therewith.
