Eaton TMCX5161 BR NP Cable Gland - Explosion-Proof
Part Number: TMCX5161 BR NP
Quick Summary
The TMCX5161 BR NP cable gland seals TECK-armoured tray cables for hazardous locations. Designed to prevent ingress and withstand rugged industrial environments, it reduces maintenance cycles and unplanned downtime. The product carries NEC/CEC compliance with Class I, Division 1 ratings and a NEMA 4 enclosure, ensuring reliable protection in demanding zones. Its nickel-plated brass body and 1-1/2 in NPT threads deliver corrosion resistance and a tight seal, even in challenging chemical or moisture-prone areas. Engineers gain installation efficiency, lower spare parts usage, and improved safety margins by selecting armour barrier configurations and both armoured and non-armoured barrier options for varied cable builds.
