Eaton Crouse-Hinds CGB8917 Cable Gland - Non-armoured 3" NPT
Part Number: CGB8917
Quick Summary
Eaton Crouse-Hinds CGB8917 cable gland provides rugged sealing for non-armoured tray cables used in industrial control panels and electrical enclosures. Engineers often face ingress leaks, cable movement, and maintenance downtime when glands don’t match cable diameters or mounting threads. This model supports a precise cable range of 1.875 to 2.188 inches, a 3 inch NPT thread, and a steel body built for repeated service in harsh environments, helping reduce replacement costs. It carries NEC/CEC compliance, a NEMA 3R enclosure rating, and suitability for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, delivering regulatory confidence and safer operation. In practice, it enables faster installation, simpler spares management, and scalable wiring for expanding automation projects.

Eaton Specification Sheet - CGB8917
Non-armoured, tray cable gland design provides secure sealing for non-armoured tray cables in control panels, reducing ingress paths and maintenance downtime; this is particularly beneficial in factory automation where abundant tray cabling is common and reliability is critical. The cable range of 1.875-2.188 inches ensures consistent compression across typical outer diameters, minimizing rework and gasket failure while supporting retrofit projects and new builds alike. With a 3 inch NPT thread, installation aligns with widely used enclosures, cutting mounting time and eliminating cross-threading risks during upgrades or expansions. Steel construction delivers durable mechanical protection against impact, abrasion, and temperature variation, lowering long-term maintenance costs in harsh factory floors. The NEMA 3R rating and Ordinary/Non-Hazardous location suitability provide outdoor and damp-location protection while meeting regulatory requirements, simplifying procurement and reducing site-specific compliance concerns. NEC/CEC compliance further streamlines cross-site approvals and standardization across North American facilities, contributing to lower engineering overhead and faster time-to-value in automation projects.

FAQs
The CGB8917 is designed for non-armoured tray cables with a cable range of 1.875 to 2.188 inches and uses a 3 inch NPT thread. It fits standard enclosures that accept 3" NPT glands and pairs well with other CG fittings for quick retrofits or new installations in industrial panels.
The gland uses a steel, non-armoured design with precise compression against non-armoured tray cables, minimizing ingress paths. Its 3" NPT connection and robust sealing work with standard gaskets to maintain enclosure integrity in ordinary locations, reducing maintenance and leak-related downtime.
Yes. The product is specified for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations under NEC/CEC standards and carries a NEMA 3R rating, making it suitable for indoor and outdoor environments with restricted exposure to moisture, while simplifying compliance and procurement.
CGB8917 supports NEC/CEC standards, NEMA 3R enclosure protection, and UL certification for non-armoured gland configurations. It is designed for ordinary locations, facilitating regulatory alignment and cross-site standardization in North American facilities.
Installation benefits include a standard 3" NPT thread for quick mounting, compatibility with Tray Cable glands, and clear spec alignment for retrofit work. Maintenance advantages come from a durable steel body, reliable sealing for non-armoured cables, and reduced downtime due to fewer gasket failures or rework.
