Eaton Crouse-Hinds CGB396 Cable Gland - 1" NPT, 3R
Part Number: CGB396
Quick Summary
The Eaton Crouse-Hinds CGB396 cable gland provides robust entry protection for non-armoured tray cables in industrial enclosures. Choosing the wrong gland can cause leaks, sealing failures, and installation delays in harsh or confined spaces. It carries NEC/CEC compliance, a NEMA 3R rating, and is suitable for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, enabling safer, code-compliant installations. In addition to tray cable applications, the CGB396 supports streamlined procurement and reduces lifecycle costs through standardized sizing and simple field assembly. For design teams, that means fewer SKU variants, faster sourcing, and clearer documentation for NEC/CEC and NEMA conformance. These benefits translate into measurable productivity gains on high-mix lines and safer, compliant installations in ordinary locations.

FAQs
The CGB396 uses a 1" NPT thread and non-armoured gland design, intended for standard enclosures. Ensure cable range compatibility (0.625–0.750 inches) and proper tightening to achieve the manufacturer's seal. Use appropriate enclosure gaskets and verify the installation against NEC/CEC requirements for ordinary locations to prevent leaks and rework.
Key specs include cable range (0.625–0.750 inches), 1" NPT thread, steel construction, and weight around 0.44 lb. The gland carries a NEMA 3R rating and NEC/CEC compliance, making it suitable for general-purpose use in ordinary locations with non-armoured tray cables.
The CGB396 is intended for ordinary/non-hazardous locations and features a NEMA 3R rating, which provides rainproof protection in many outdoor or semi-exposed settings. It is not designed for hazardous (Division 1/2) or explosion-prone environments, so select a gland with the appropriate hazardous-location rating if applicable.
The gland meets NEC/CEC standards and carries a NEMA 3R rating for weather-resistance in ordinary locations. It is documented for non-hazardous use with tray cables and supports compliant installation practices across general industrial facilities.
Because the gland is sized for common tray cable ranges, installers face fewer adapters and less field modification, speeding up commissioning. The robust steel housing and weather resistance reduce downtime, while NEC/CEC compliance lowers risk during audits, delivering a favorable total-cost-of-ownership over the equipment lifecycle.
