Eaton HGLS5 grounding bushing - 1-1/2\" Threadless NEC/CEC

Part Number: HGLS5
Manufacturer
Eaton Crouse-Hinds
Part number
HGLS5

Quick Summary

The HGLS5 grounding bushing is a reliable solution for securing a robust ground path in rigid/IMC conduit installations used in control panels and industrial enclosures. Engineers often struggle to find a grounding accessory that fits a 1-1/2\" trade size while delivering durable performance in harsh environments. This part aligns with NEC/CEC standards, offers UL documentation, and supports ordinary/non-hazardous locations with a 150°C temperature rating. With an aluminum lug and malleable iron body, it combines lightweight handling with proven durability, reducing installation time and inventory complexity. For procurement teams, this translates to predictable compliance, faster commissioning, and long-term reliability across plant-wide grounding networks.

Feature → Business Impact → Application: Threadless, set-screw design enables rapid, tool-efficient installation in tight spaces and reduces thread damage during mounting, accelerating commissioning on crowded panels and control cabinets. This design minimizes installation downtime while preserving a solid ground connection in rigid/IMC conduit systems. Application: panel builders and electrical contractors benefit from quicker wiring runs and fewer reworks in high-density electrical rooms. Feature → Aluminum lug with unitary malleable iron body delivers corrosion resistance and structural integrity in harsh environments, prolonging service life and lowering maintenance cycles. Application: outdoor or high-temp enclosures where grounding reliability is critical. Feature → 1-1/2" trade size with #4-14 AWG lug capacity provides broad compatibility with common industrial conductors, enabling standardization across projects and reducing part diversity. Application: new installations and retrofits requiring consistent grounding hardware. Feature → 150°C temperature rating and NEC/CEC compliance ensure safe operation under elevated temperatures and strict electrical codes, supporting risk management and regulatory adherence. Application: demanding industrial facilities and equipment rooms with heat generation. Feature → Malleable iron body and threaded-free design simplify stock management and repair workflows, lowering total cost of ownership. Application: maintenance teams appreciate predictable part availability and straightforward replacements. These attributes collectively support faster project delivery, reduced risk of grounding faults, and improved overall system integrity.
