Non-armoured gland tailored for tray cable systems delivers straightforward compatibility with non-armoured tray cables, reducing mis-pairing and spare-parts inventory. This feature translates to faster break-in and fewer field adjustments during panel assembly, delivering measurable time savings. The CGFP7917 is well-suited for electrical enclosures, control panels, and machinery where tray cables are run in ordinary locations, and where damage risk is managed by a robust sealing design. The 2-1/2 inch NPT thread standardizes mounting with common conduit fittings, enabling quicker installation and easier maintenance across multiple panels and facilities. The Feraloy iron alloy body provides enhanced strength and wear resistance in industrial environments, contributing to longer gland life and reduced replacement costs. Outer sheath range of 1.875–2.188 inches ensures compatible fit for a broad subset of non-armoured tray cables, minimizing the need for adapters and custom hardware. Compliance is built in, with NEC/CEC alignment and UL certification, giving procurement teams confidence in regulatory readiness while simplifying audits. Compatibility with Eaton CGF fittings and installation literature (IF 513A) supports consistent torque, sealing, and ingress protection across projects, reducing commissioning risk and post-installation service calls. Overall, CGFP7917 delivers measurable efficiency gains, safer cable entries, and lower total cost of ownership for light to medium industrial installations.
