Eaton Specification Sheet - 707
Feature → Business Impact → Application: FMC straight squeeze-type connectors like the Eaton 707 enable quick, hands-on installations by securing the conduit with a single squeeze action, reducing labor time and potential misalignment on crowded panels. This translates to cost savings on large installations and more consistent wiring practices in control cabinets and switchgear rooms; use in automation lines or process plants where fast, repeatable FMC joins are essential. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Malleable iron construction provides rugged mechanical strength for industrial environments, improving long-term durability against vibration and minor impacts in conveyors, presses, and robotics cells. This supports a lower total cost of ownership through fewer reworks and replacements, especially in high-cycle automation applications requiring reliable FMC connections. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Non-insulated, straight 707 connectors minimize material complexity and simplify routing in compact enclosures, supporting faster panel wiring and easier inspection. Application contexts include control panels and junction boxes where insulation is not required, enabling efficient installations in Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations. Feature → Business Impact → Application: NEC/CEC compliance and UL certification ensure regulatory alignment and safety confidence for plant managers, maintenance teams, and procurement, reducing external audit findings and enabling smoother project approvals. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Precise dimensions (1.44 in length, 1.63 in height/width) and a lightweight profile (0.07 lb) aid in space-constrained installations, improving cabinet fill factors and enabling easier field adjustments during commissioning. This makes the 707 well-suited for FMC fleets in automation racks, process lines, and plant retrofit projects.

FAQs
The Eaton 707 is a straight, non-insulated FMC squeeze-type connector made of malleable iron for 3/8" trade size conduits. It is designed to join flexible metal conduit quickly in Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations while meeting NEC/CEC standards and UL certification, ensuring safe, reliable field installations in manufacturing and automation environments.
The 707 is manufactured to conform with NEC/CEC electrical standards for FMC connector installations and carries UL certification for FMC components. This combination supports compliant installations in non-hazardous areas, simplifying inspections and reducing compliance risk for industrial automation projects.
Yes. The 707 is part of the Eaton Crouse-Hinds FMC family and is designed to mate with standard FMC fittings and couplings. Its straight, squeeze-type design complements other connectors in the series, enabling consistent, code-compliant wiring practices across control panels and field installations.
The 707 has a length of 1.44 in, a width of 1.63 in, and a height of 1.63 in, with a weight of 0.07 lb. These compact dimensions support easy routing in tight electrical enclosures and minimal added mass in vibration-prone environments.
For non-insulated squeeze connectors, ensure clean, straight FMC runs and proper seating in the enclosure. Use the correct squeeze tool to achieve full engagement, verify alignment with the conduit, and confirm compliance with NEC/CEC for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations. This approach minimizes rework and ensures durable, code-compliant terminations in automated systems.
