IF 1890 - TMC3 Cable Gland
Feature → Business Impact → Application: The TMC3 supports both armored and non-armored cables with armor range 0.800" to 1.120" and cable range 0.850" to 1.310" while outer sheath falls in the same 0.850"–1.310" band, enabling a single gland family to cover a wide MC cable portfolio. This reduces SKU complexity, lowers inventory costs, and speeds on-site procurement during panel builds. Use in control panels and field enclosures to streamline installation and ensure consistent sealing across mixed cable types.Feature → Business Impact → Application: Nickel-plated brass construction delivers corrosion resistance in challenging environments, extending service life and reducing maintenance cycles. For outdoor or chemical-exposed installations, this material choice translates to fewer gland replacements and lower life-cycle costs, supporting long-term reliability in automation cabinets and enclosure assemblies.Feature → Business Impact → Application: A 3/4" NPT thread with industrial sealing capability provides compatibility with standard enclosure fittings, simplifying retrofit projects and minimizing custom hardware. Operators benefit from faster installs, fewer leak points, and predictable torque performance in new builds or upgrades in machine rooms and outdoor substations.Feature → Business Impact → Application: IP66 protection and NEMA 4X rating deliver ingress protection against dust and water in harsh environments, enabling safe operation in wash-down areas and damp facilities. This reduces downtime from environmental exposure and supports compliance for outdoor equipment, process lines, and hazardous-location installations.Feature → Business Impact → Application: Broad cable-type compatibility (MC, MC-HL, TECK, TC, TC-ER, TC-ER-HL, ITC, ITC-ER, ITC-HL, PLTC, PLTC-ER, ACIC) ensures designers can standardize glands across multi-cable systems, boosting procurement efficiency and reducing design risk. Ideal for automation panels, energy-management systems, and industrial robotics where uniform glanding simplifies sourcing and commissioning.Feature → Business Impact → Application: NEC/CEC IECEx/ATEX compliance alongside hazardous-location ratings aligns with industry standards, enabling safe installation in Class II/Division 1 and Class III environments. This minimizes certification delays, accelerates project approvals, and provides a reliable path to regulatory compliance for global deployments.

FAQs
The TMC3-075-2-NP uses a standard 3/4 inch NPT thread designed to fit common enclosure ports. Begin by selecting the correct gland size for your armor and cable range (0.800"–1.120" armor and 0.850"–1.310" cable). Insert the gland into the enclosure, tighten to the specified torque, and ensure the armor is fully captured to maintain IP66 integrity. Refer to the IF 1890 installation sheet for step-by-step guidance and torque values if available.
The gland carries NEC/CEC and IECEx/ATEX standards, along with IP66 protection and NEMA 4X suitability. It is evaluated for Hazardous/Classified Locations, including Class II, Division 1 and Class III environments. These certifications support compliance in industrial facilities, chemical plants, and outdoor installations, reducing qualification time for regulatory approvals and site acceptance tests.
Yes. The TMC3-075-2-NP is specified for MC, MC-HL, TECK, TC, TC-ER, TC-ER-HL, ITC, ITC-ER, ITC-HL, PLTC, PLTC-ER, and ACIC cable types. This broad compatibility simplifies design decisions and procurement across multi-cable systems in automation cabinets, power distribution panels, and field enclosures, reducing the need for multiple gland variants.
IP66 and NEMA 4X ratings provide robust ingress protection against dust, water jets, and corrosion in outdoor or wash-down environments. For automation and process facilities, this means fewer enclosure leaks, reduced maintenance downtime, and greater reliability of cable connections in harsher climates, helping to meet uptime targets and extend service intervals.
Using the TMC3-075-2-NP reduces part numbers through broad compatibility, lowers inventory carrying costs, and minimizes rework due to packing or sealing failures. Its corrosion-resistant nickel-plated brass, combined with strong protection ratings, translates to longer service intervals and fewer gland replacements, delivering measurable ROI through lower total cost of ownership.
