FLEXAquick® Y Distributor Fittings
FLEXAquick® Y distributor fittings provide secure three-way branching of flexible corrugated conduit systems with an angled outlet configuration for controlled cable routing. The Y-shaped design allows flexible corrugated conduit runs to split at a smoother angle compared to a T distributor, helping maintain organized routing and reduced conductor stress in multi-branch installations.
Two body styles are available to support different installation and performance requirements.
The RQY-PA rigid PA6 version incorporates the proven FLEXAquick® quick-connect locking mechanism for fast, secure conduit attachment and controlled removal without tools.
The RQY TPE rubber version provides a flexible, self-locking conduit junction using internal gripping ribs that secure conduit corrugations during insertion. This version is typically selected for cost-effective conduit branching where frequent reconfiguration is not required.
FLEXAquick® quick-connect fittings and ROHRflex® flexible corrugated conduits are flagship product lines from IBIS Electro-Products Corp, specializing in high-performance electrical conduit systems.
⚡ Tool-Free Conduit Connection
Select FLEXAquick® Y distributor models feature integrated quick-connect locking clips that eliminate ferrules, compression rings, and installation hand tools. Simply push to connect and squeeze to release for fast and controlled conduit attachment.

View ProductsUnderstanding the Two Y Distributor Designs
RQY-PA (Rigid PA6 Body – FLEXAquick® Quick-Connect)
The RQY-PA version incorporates FLEXAquick® quick-connect conduit locking clips on all ports. This design enables rapid conduit installation and removal without threaded hardware or tools. It provides secure retention, controlled release capability, and higher ingress protection performance.
The RQY-PA is well suited for installations requiring repeatability, service access, and higher environmental sealing.
RQY (Flexible TPE Rubber Body – Self-Locking)
The RQY TPE rubber version uses internal “gator-style” ribs that grip the conduit corrugations during insertion. This design provides secure retention in a flexible body format and is typically selected for economical multi-conduit branching where conduit removal is infrequent.
While removable, the rubber version may require greater effort for conduit disconnection compared to the controlled release mechanism of the RQY-PA model.
Applications for FLEXAquick® Y Distributor Fittings

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a Y distributor conduit fitting?
A Y distributor fitting branches one conduit run into two angled conduit paths, creating a three-way junction with smoother directional transitions compared to a 90° T distributor.
What is the difference between the RQY-PA and RQY versions?
The RQY-PA rigid PA6 version incorporates FLEXAquick® quick-connect locking clips for tool-free conduit installation and controlled removal. It offers higher ingress protection ratings and is well suited for installations requiring serviceability and environmental sealing.
The RQY TPE rubber version uses internal gripping ribs to secure conduit during insertion and is typically selected for cost-effective conduit branching in applications where frequent reconfiguration is not expected.
Do FLEXAquick® Y distributor fittings require tools for installation?
No. Both versions install without ferrules, compression rings, or threaded hardware. The RQY-PA FLEXAquick® model includes a release ring for controlled conduit removal. The RQY rubber version relies on internal gripping ribs for secure insertion.
Are Y distributor fittings reusable?
Yes. Both RQY-PA and RQY versions can be reused.
The RQY-PA model allows controlled conduit removal by compressing the FLEXAquick® release ring. The RQY rubber version also permits conduit removal; however, greater effort may be required due to the internal gripping rib design.
What ingress protection ratings are available?
Ingress protection performance varies by fitting design.
The RQY-PA FLEXAquick® version is available with IP68 and IP69K ratings when installed in accordance with individual product specifications.
The RQY TPE rubber version provides IP66 protection and is suited for general industrial environments where high-pressure wash-down or submersion protection is not required.
Are FLEXAquick® Y distributor fittings compatible with ROHRflex® conduits?
Yes. Both RQY-PA and RQY Y distributor fittings are designed to integrate with ROHRflex® flexible corrugated conduits of the corresponding outside diameter (OD). Compatibility with other corrugated plastic conduits of the same OD should be verified prior to installation.
