Description
Hawke 753 NEC Compliant Barrier Cable Gland CT-4613
The Hawke 753 is a premier, dual-certified Exe/Exd barrier cable gland designed for high-stakes hazardous areas, including Division 1 and Zone 1 environments. Engineered for use with single wire armour, wire braid, and steel tape armour, it provides a robust barrier seal to individual cores, preventing the migration of explosive gases through the cable system
In the field, the 753 stands out with the world’s only NEC-compliant transparent elastomeric compound chamber, allowing installers to visually verify the flameproof seal during and after installation. With a fast 30-minute cure time using ExPress liquid resin or QSP hand-mix putty, it significantly reduces downtime while the patented Tightening Guide prevents cable damage from over-tightening.
