Legrand cg816 Cord Grip Strain Relief 1 in Aluminum

Product Description

The LEGRAND cg816 is a heavy duty deluxe strain relief cord grip designed to secure and protect electrical cables at conduit entry points. Part of the CG Series, this Flexcor cord grip features a straight male NPT connection in a 1 inch trade size, accepting cable openings from 7/8 to 1 inch. Constructed from aluminum, it delivers durable mechanical protection against pull-out and vibration stress on conductors. Electricians install this fitting where flexible cords or cables enter enclosures, panels, or junction boxes, providing both a secure grip and a weathertight seal at the conduit connection point.

The cg816 is suited for commercial and industrial electrical installations where cable management and strain relief are required at enclosure knockouts. The 1 inch trade size and 7/8 to 1 inch cable opening range accommodate a wide variety of flexible cords and multi-conductor cables commonly found in panel wiring, motor connections, and equipment hookups. The aluminum construction makes it appropriate for environments where corrosion resistance and mechanical strength are priorities.

Key Features

• Heavy duty deluxe strain relief design prevents cable pull-out and conductor fatigue
• 1 inch trade size with 7/8 to 1 inch cable opening range
• Straight male NPT connection for standard conduit entry installations
• Aluminum construction for durability and corrosion resistance
• Part of the CG Series for consistent fitment across compatible enclosure types

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation cord grip for electrical enclosures, junction boxes, and panels accepting a 1 inch trade size straight male NPT fitting.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed electrician. De-energize all circuits and lock out the panel or enclosure before beginning work, in accordance with NFPA 70 (NEC) lockout/tagout requirements. Thread the male NPT connection into the enclosure knockout by hand first, then tighten with an appropriate wrench to achieve a secure, rattle-free fit without over-torquing the aluminum body. Confirm the cable is seated fully through the grip before tightening the clamping mechanism to avoid damaging conductor insulation.
