ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A liquid tight fitting for liquid tight flexible metal conduit which provides higher unit sealing pressures and improved liquid tight sealing by providing line, rather than surface, contact at critical points. The body member of the fitting makes line contact with a flared lip of the ferrule. The lip of the ferrule makes line contact with the sealing ring. The vector forces which create the seals have components in the directions required to most effec- tively and efficiently produce the seals. The sealing ring may be made symmetrical, is discontinuous, has an inside bead for sealing against the conduit and may include wings for retention in the gland nut prior to assembly of the fitting on a conduit end.
