Eaton TMC3-050-0-NP Cable Gland - IP66 Hazardous Locations
Part Number: TMC3-050-0-NP
Quick Summary
Cable gland provides sealing and strain relief for armored and non-armored MC cables in harsh industrial environments. Field technicians often struggle to maintain IP66 integrity while enabling quick, error-free field installation. This TMC3 gland delivers hazardous-location approvals and rugged protection with IP66, NEMA 4X, and IECEx/ATEX certifications to support safe operation. By combining a compact profile with a 1/2" NPT thread and armor range support, it reduces commissioning time and spare-part variety, improving project timelines and overall equipment reliability in oil, gas, and heavy manufacturing settings.
