Eaton TMCX250 2 Terminator II Cable Gland - Explosion-proof
Part Number: TMCX250 2
Quick Summary
Eaton TMCX250 2 Terminator II Cable Gland provides explosion‑proof cable sealing for hazardous locations. Engineers often struggle to maintain reliable seals and regulatory compliance in harsh environments, where incorrect gland selection can lead to ingress, arc faults, or costly downtime. This unit supports NEC/CEC compliance, Hazardous/Classified Locations, and a NEMA 4X rating, delivering durable protection in demanding facilities. It is compatible with armoured barrier and metal‑clad cables, including TECK armoured and tray cable, and uses a 2-1/2 inch NPT thread for straightforward installation. The combination of robust materials and certified performance translates into lower maintenance costs and faster commissioning for projects in oil, gas, chemical, and heavy manufacturing.
