Abstract
An end fitting for a flexible metallic conduit comprises a tubular body having an external thread to enable the body to be screwed into an end of a conduit, a tubular sleeve having an external thread to enable the end fitting to be threadedly mounted on a support, and a rotary tubular collar threadedly mounted on a stationary projection of one-piece with the body. The collar has an inner circumferential tapered surface which bounds a wedge-shaped annular space with the externally threaded end of the body. The conduit is received in wedged, moisture-resistant engagement in the space. A stressed O-ring seal between the sleeve and the stationary projection provides another moisture-resistant seal.
