Hubbell SHC1038ZP Straight Strain Relief Cord Grip 3/4 Npt

Product Description

The HUBBELL WIRING DEVICE-KELLEMS SHC1038ZP is a straight strain relief cord grip designed to secure and protect electrical cables at conduit entry points. Constructed from zinc-plated steel, it provides corrosion resistance suitable for general wiring applications. The fitting accepts cables with an outer diameter ranging from 0.75 to 0.88 inches and uses a 3/4-inch NPT thread for connection to standard conduit fittings or enclosure knockouts. With an overall length of 1.55 inches and an IP66 ingress protection rating, it is suited for installations where dust and water jet resistance are required. Electricians install this fitting to relieve mechanical stress on conductors at the point of entry into a box, panel, or enclosure.

This cord grip is intended for general straight-entry applications in residential, commercial, and light industrial electrical installations. It is commonly used where cable enters junction boxes, control panels, motor connection boxes, and similar enclosures requiring a secure, sealed cable termination. The NPT thread makes it compatible with standard North American conduit and enclosure fittings. It is sold individually and is appropriate wherever a compact, durable strain relief solution is needed for cables in the 0.75 to 0.88 inch diameter range.

Key Features

• Straight cord grip geometry for direct inline cable entry
• Accepts cable outer diameters from 0.75 to 0.88 inches
• 3/4-inch NPT thread fits standard North American conduit and enclosure knockouts
• Zinc-plated steel construction provides corrosion resistance for general-duty use
• IP66 ingress protection rating resists dust ingress and high-pressure water jets
• Compact 1.55-inch overall length minimizes space requirements at the entry point

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install strain relief for general electrical enclosures and junction boxes accepting a 3/4-inch NPT fitting with cable diameters of 0.75 to 0.88 inches.

Installation Notes

This fitting is installed by a licensed electrician following applicable NEC requirements for cable support and protection at enclosure entries. De-energize and lock out the circuit before accessing any enclosure or panel. Thread the cord grip into the enclosure knockout or conduit fitting by hand, then tighten with a wrench to achieve a secure, watertight seal — do not overtighten, as this may damage the threads or deform the fitting. Confirm the cable jacket is gripped firmly and the conductors are not under tension at the point of entry.
