In fittings designed to connect threadless electrical conduits, the improvement of providing raintight fittings, includes a hollow cylindrical housing with a bore adapted to receive an end of a conduit to be connected with such a fitting and a compression ring with a solid ring portion assembled on the conduit along with a seal, with the solid ring portion providing a radial surface for advancing the seal along the conduit and to compress the seal radially against the conduit to effect a raintight seal between the housing and the conduit and segmented projections extending from the solid ring portion which segments are compressed against the conduit by a nut system driving the segments into the surface of the conduit to lock it in the fitting when the radial face of the compression ring abuts against a stop in the housing after compressing the seal.
