Eaton Crouse-Hinds TMC8302 Cable Gland - NEMA 4
Part Number: TMC8302
Quick Summary
The TMC8302 is a robust Eaton Crouse-Hinds cable gland designed for armored metal-clad cables in industrial installations. In harsh plant environments, improper sealing and mismatched armor can lead to moisture ingress, downtime, and costly maintenance. This gland carries a NEMA 4 rating and NEC/CEC compliance, with compatibility for ordinary/non-hazardous locations, ensuring reliable operation where splash and dust are concerns. Its aluminum, armoured construction offers lightweight handling without sacrificing durability, and the 3" NPT thread matches standard conduit interfaces for faster field assembly. By selecting the TMC8302, engineers gain a rugged, code-compliant solution that accelerates panel wiring while reducing lifecycle costs.

FAQs
To ensure a proper seal, align the gland with the conduit interface and use an appropriate thread sealant rated for metal-clad armor. Engage threads evenly to prevent cross-threading and torque to manufacturer specifications. Verify armor size falls within the 2.45–3.02 in range and outer sheath between 2.52–3.28 in to ensure a snug fit and reliable ingress protection.
Yes. The TMC8302 is designed for metal-clad cables and supports TECK corrugated or interlocked steel, or aluminum armor. The armor and outer sheath size ranges (2.45–3.02 in and 2.52–3.28 in, respectively) are specified to accommodate these armor types, enabling a single gland to cover multiple armor configurations in the same installation.
The TMC8302 supports NEC/CEC standards and is rated for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations, with a NEMA Rating of 4. This combination ensures suitability for standard industrial environments, splash-prone areas, and general-purpose equipment enclosures while maintaining regulatory compliance and safety during operation.
With a 3" NPT thread, aluminum gland housing, and a compact, armor-ready profile, the TMC8302 simplifies conduit mating, reduces installation time, and lowers field servicing costs. Its ability to accommodate a range of armor sizes minimizes the need for multiple gland parts, improving part commonality and speeding up wiring in control panels and industrial enclosures.
Expect improved uptime due to reliable ingress protection (NEMA 4) and robust armor compatibility, which reduces leaks and moisture ingress. The aluminum, light-weight design eases handling during installation and maintenance, while standardized sizing lowers spare parts inventory. Over the product lifecycle, this translates to lower maintenance costs and a faster return on investment for armor-based cabling systems.
