Terminating armoured cable or flexible conduit at a box is one of the most common rough-in jobs. This Nesco 1/2 in box connector uses a single screw saddle clamp to grip armoured cable (BX/AC90) or aluminum flexible conduit and lock it into a 1/2 in knockout. It is a low-cost staple for residential and light commercial rough-in.
Why electricians pick it
- One-screw saddle clamp for fast termination of armoured cable.
- Fits 1/2 in trade-size knockouts in boxes and panels.
- Works with armoured (BX) cable and aluminum flexible conduit.
- Low unit cost for high-volume rough-in.

Pro tip from the counter
Tighten the single screw until the saddle seats firmly in the armour's convolutions, then give the cable a tug to check. Over-tightening on aluminum armour can crush it inward against the conductors, so stop once the cable no longer moves.
Best for: residential armoured cable rough-in, basement and garage finishing, flexible conduit whips to equipment, light commercial box terminations
