A single drop of oil seeping into an electrical
control box is all it takes to knock out your
production line for days. And a faulty fitting can be
the culprit causing that failure.
At Thomas & Betts, we realize that while most of
our products are small, the jobs they do are big.
And big jobs demand the right product
engineering, testing and quality control.
That’s what you get with Thomas & Betts.
We engineer more into our products, so you get
more out of them — important extras not found in
ordinary fittings, like a ground cone that improves
pull-out strength while reducing the risk of stripping
wires, or a sealing ring with tough, durable plating.
Our quality liquidtight fittings stay on the job even
under the toughest conditions.
Why do we put more effort into our products and
quality control? It’s simple. The more effort we put
in, the better the product.
