Eaton CGE296 SG Cable Gland - 3/4in NPT, NEMA 4
Part Number: CGE296 SG
Quick Summary
CGE296 SG cable gland provides reliable cable entry protection for tray cables in non-armoured configurations. Installing in harsh environments often leads to moisture ingress and unsealed joints that drive maintenance costs. It carries NEC/CEC compliance, a NEMA 4 enclosure rating, and ordinary/non-hazardous area classification to simplify regulatory alignment. Designed for tray cables and non-armoured configurations, this gland helps installers achieve faster, leak-tight assemblies and lower life-cycle costs. In practice, it supports 90° angle connections with a 3/4" NPT thread and gasket/locknut for reliable sealing. Key specifications include a 2.64 inch length, 1.63 inch height, 1.63 inch width, and 0.77 lb weight. These features support fast installation, a tight seal against dust and moisture, and compatibility with 3/4 inch NPT threads.

Eaton Specification Sheet - CGE296 SG
90° angle gland with a 3/4 in NPT thread enables tight routing in crowded panels and conduit runs, reducing elbow bends and potential cable damage. This translates to shorter installation times and fewer field reworks, especially in retrofit projects. Cable range compatibility covers 0.625 to 0.750 inches for tray cables, ensuring broad fit across common non-armoured wiring schemes. The result is fewer SKU separations and smoother procurement for panel builders. Material and sealing rely on a Feraloy iron alloy body with a sealing gasket and locknut, delivering robust mechanical performance in ordinary locations. This combination provides corrosion resistance where needed and a reliable seal under vibration. Compliance and protection include NEC/CEC standards support and a NEMA 4 enclosure rating, simplifying code demonstrations and safety in standard environments. Installation and maintenance are improved by the gasket and locknut, enabling straightforward field sealing and easier future replacement, reducing downtime. Size and weight are compact for dense installations, with dimensions of 2.64 in length, 1.63 in width, 1.63 in height, and a weight of 0.77 lb, maintaining compatibility with non-armoured tray cables and general-purpose gland applications. These design traits translate into lower total cost of ownership over the gland’s service life, enabling faster commissioning and predictable performance in automation panels.

FAQs
The CGE296 SG gland supports tray cable installations with non-armoured conductors and a cable range of 0.625 to 0.750 inches. It uses a 3/4 in NPT thread and a 90° angle connector to enable compact routing. This combination reduces rework and speeds field wiring, especially in panel upgrades and retrofit projects.
Key dimensions include a 2.64 inch length, 1.63 inch height, 1.63 inch width, and a weight of 0.77 lb. The gland body is made from Feraloy iron alloy and features a non-armoured gland, gasket, and locknut. It uses a 3/4 in NPT thread and supports a 90° angle connection for easy assembly.
This gland is suitable for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, making it ideal for industrial automation, panel building, and process environments where general-purpose tray cables are used. It supports NEC/CEC compliance and provides NEMA 4 protection, helping installers meet common electrical safety and environmental requirements.
CGE296 SG complies with NEC/CEC standards and carries a NEMA 4 enclosure rating. It is designed for ordinary locations, which simplifies regulatory documentation and ensures robust protection against dust and water ingress in typical factory environments.
The gasket and locknut enable straightforward field sealing, reducing commissioning time and potential leak points. A broad cable range lowers part diversity and inventory costs, while the 90° angle and 3/4 in NPT threading streamline routing in tight spaces, reducing downtime and maintenance costs over the gland’s lifetime.
