ABSTRACT:
A locknutless conduit connector provides for the retentive termination of an electrical conduit to a junction box. The connector includes a connector housing having a conduit receiving end, an opposed conductor egressing end and a central conduit passage therebetween. The conduit passage is defined by opposing connector halves which are relatively movable with respect to one another in clam-shell fashion and which include male and female cooperating engagement members positioned to prevent relative axial movement between the connector halves when the connector is subjected to bending forces.
