Eaton Crouse-Hinds TMCX050 0 Cable Gland - Explosion-proof
Part Number: TMCX050 0
Quick Summary
Eaton Crouse-Hinds Terminator II TMCX050 0 Cable Gland provides rugged, explosion‑proof sealing for hazardous locations where armored cables enter equipment enclosures. Maintenance teams often battle inconsistent seals and compatibility across armored cabling in harsh industrial environments. This gland carries NEC/CEC hazardous location ratings—Class I, Division 1; Class II, Division 1; Class III—and a NEMA 4X 6P enclosure rating. Built for aluminum construction with a 1/2 in NPT thread and TECK armoured cables, it delivers reliable performance while reducing retrofit costs. By combining a robust barrier material (TSC Compound) with an armoured design, it supports safer, compliant installations and predictable maintenance cycles. In practice, engineers rely on Terminator II glands to simplify sourcing and ensure consistent sealing across global sites.

Eaton Specification Sheet - TMCX050 0
The TMCX050 0 uses a durable aluminum body and a 1/2 in NPT thread to deliver a robust yet lightweight gland that simplifies field installation and reduces spare-part costs in armored-cable penetrations. Its TECK armoured and metal-clad cable compatibility ensures reliable sealing across tray cable and barrier configurations, minimizing unplanned downtime. The TSC Compound barrier provides an effective explosion-proof seal while maintaining cable integrity under harsh conditions, supporting long service life in hazardous locations. Compliance with NEC/CEC hazardous ratings and NEMA 4X 6P protection translates into lower risk, stronger audits, and fewer retrofit challenges. The gland’s 0 (XS) cable sealing range and 0.45–0.70 in cable range offer versatile sizing, while installation guides and CAD drawings simplify engineering workflows and procurement alignment.

FAQs
Verify NEC Class I Division 1 (and Class II/III) ratings before installation. Use the IF1647 installation instructions, align with TECK armoured or metal-clad cables, and install the gland in an aluminum enclosure using a 1/2 in NPT opening. Ensure the 0 XS cable sealing range and 0.45-0.70 in cable range are respected. Refer to the IF1647 sheets and CAD drawings for exact clearances.
The gland is designed to accommodate TECK armoured and metal-clad trays, providing a secure armor-to-body interface and a 0 XS seal. Its aluminum body and 1/2" NPT thread enable robust field mounting, while the TSC barrier ensures reliable explosion-proof performance across hazardous locations.
Yes. The product specification includes Tray cable TECK armour and armoured barrier configurations, indicating compatibility with tray systems. Combined with NEC hazardous location ratings and NEMA 4X protection, it supports safe penetrations for trays carrying armoured conductors in industrial installations.
It carries NEC/CEC hazard-location ratings (Class I, Division 1; Class II, Division 1; Class III) and a NEMA 4X 6P enclosure rating, indicating robust protection in hazardous environments. UL certification references are available in related reports, confirming compliance for global deployments.
Aluminum construction provides corrosion resistance and lighter weight for easier maintenance. The 0 XS sealing range and 0.45-0.70 in cable range support stable sealing over a wide size window, reducing replacement frequency. Access to installation sheets and CAD drawings also speeds diagnostics and lifecycle planning.
