Application fit
The Hubbell SHC1042 liquid tight connector accepts a single cord with a diameter between .75 in and .88 in and mounts to a 1 in MNPT box entry. It is built for installers who need a straight aluminium strain relief in a fixed conduit run.
Accessory impact
The gland is colour coded Orchid for quick visual identification on site while the body remains silver aluminium. No external strain relief is fitted so the connector relies on the internal compression seal alone.
Interface limits
The fitting is certified to CSA LR27378 and UL E54218 (M) for liquid tight performance. It is not insulated and provides no external strain relief beyond the compression nut.

Questions about this item
What cord diameter range does the SHC1042 accept before the gland needs changing?
The connector accepts cords from .75 in to .88 in; outside that range a different gland size is required.
Which approval appears first on the SHC1042 when the fitting is used continuously in a wet location?
The UL E54218 (M) and CSA LR27378 listings both cover liquid-tight service, so neither supersedes the other under sustained use.
How hot does the aluminum body of the SHC1042 get when conduit runs full load all day?
The aluminum body dissipates heat normally for metallic fittings; no temperature-rise limit is published for this model.
