Cable Connector 1-1/2 in Straight Silver
This Appleton Electric 40T31255 connector is a hazardous-location armored cable fitting finished in silver nickel-plated brass. It accepts a single cord with a diameter range of 0.87 in to 1.27 in and provides a straight 1 1/4 in MNPT box connection. The unit meets UL2225 and C22.2 No. 174 standards.
Build integration and clearance
The connector threads directly into a 1 1/4 in MNPT entry, requiring no external strain relief hardware. Its straight body measures 3 3/8 in from box face to end, while the gland extends 3 21/32 in, so allow that depth inside the enclosure. No insulated throat is included, so grounding continuity relies on the metal-to-metal joint.
Suitable applications and limits
Installers running armored cable in classified areas will find the certified ratings and nickel-plated brass construction fit for purpose. Buyers who need an insulated throat, an angled body, or a different NPT size should look at other fittings. The single-cord design also means it cannot accommodate multi-conductor entries.
