Eaton Crouse-Hinds HGLS6 Grounding Bushing - 150°C
Part Number: HGLS6
Quick Summary
HGLS6 grounding bushing from Eaton Crouse-Hinds provides a reliable grounding connection for rigid/IMC conduit in industrial installations. Installers often wrestle with alignment, vibration, and corrosion resistance in compact panels, leading to intermittent grounding and increased maintenance. It complies with NEC/CEC standards and carries UL Canadian certifications, with an Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations rating to support safe operation in typical plant environments. The combination of a malleable iron body, threadless design, and a set-screw fixation simplifies field installation, reduces torque risk, and ensures a durable, vibration-resistant connection. Aluminum lug supports #4-14 AWG conductors in a 2" trade-size fitting, while a 150°C rating keeps performance stable in demanding industrial spaces.

FAQs
The HGLS6 supports rigid/IMC conduit with a 2" trade size and is designed for aluminum lugs handling #4–14 AWG conductors. The combination provides a compact, code-ready grounding solution for standard industrial feeders and control circuits in NA facilities.
The HGLS6 complies with NEC/CEC standards and carries UL Canadian certification for grounded equipment. It is rated for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, supporting safe operation in typical manufacturing and facility environments.
The threadless body removes the need to align threaded connections, reducing cross-threading risk and installation time. The set-screw fixation provides a secure termination once the conductor is clamped, which is especially beneficial in tight panels or when accessibility is limited.
Yes. The HGLS6 carries a 150°C temperature rating, allowing reliable grounding performance in spaces with elevated temperatures near equipment or heat sources, provided the location remains Ordinary/Non-Hazardous per NEC/CEC guidance.
Periodically verify the set-screw torque and inspect for any corrosion or deformation in the malleable iron body and aluminum lug. Ensure the #4–14 AWG conductors remain securely terminated and that the 2" trade-size fits the conduit without gaps or movement to preserve grounding integrity.
