I am installing a Sauna-core 6Kw vaporizer model SV manual PDF
A UL listed LFMC with a temperature rating of 105C is requested for the wiring from the heater to the box.
Where can I find a few feet of this?
Should the box to transition to the NM in the wall be mounted in the wall, or inside the sauna?
Thank you for your help!

Every electric supply house I have been to sells LFMC by the foot, it's about $2/foot. Call it "metallic liquidtight", if you call it LFMC they often look at you funny and don't know what you are asking for. I wouldn't even try a big box store and chance getting something imported that doesn't satisfy UL360 and NEC 501 as specified in your document.
I would stop the NM before entering the sauna, NM is not allowed in "damp" locations, and I'm sure the sauna would qualify as such. Being in a junction box that opens inside a damp location is normally interpreted as in the damp location, and I wouldn't attempt to argue that with an inspector.
