Eaton’s Single New Steel Quick-LokTM Pro Engineered to Save Time
and Money, Increase Productivity and Reliability in Commercial
Construction
SYRACUSE, N.Y. …Power management company Eaton has introduced the latest
expansion to its Crouse-Hinds series Quick-LokTM Pro line. Designed to improve productivity
for electrical construction contractors when connecting conduit and cable to boxes or
enclosures, the new 3/8-inch steel single connector is engineered for use with a wide range
of armored, metal clad and flexible conduits and comes with a distinct snap-in feature that
provides for tool-free installation and removal. This dramatically decreases installation time
and can contribute to decreased labor costs on a construction site.
The durable steel design of this steel connector is ideal for
healthcare, universities, governmental facilities and other
applications that require or prefer steel fittings. The fittings are
reusable and are manufactured with an insulated throat design,
ensuring added wire protection and a smooth pulling surface.
“The distinct features of this innovative tool-less connector provide a secure and reliable
connection for a variety of customer applications,” said Jack King, commercial marketing
manager, Eaton’s Crouse-Hinds Division. “The addition of a steel connector gives our
customers the choice of zinc or steel in an innovative connector that improves overall
productivity through time and labor savings.”
