Thomas Betts 2584 Straight Strain Relief Cord Grip 2-1/2 Npt

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS 2584 is a liquidtight straight strain relief cord grip designed to secure and protect electrical cables at conduit entry points. It accepts cables ranging from 1.75 to 1.965 inches in diameter and threads into a 2-1/2 inch NPT fitting for a tight, moisture-resistant seal. Constructed from iron with a zinc finish, this cord grip provides durable corrosion resistance in demanding environments. With an overall length of 3.75 inches, it is sized for use in industrial, commercial, and heavy-trade electrical installations. Electricians and maintenance technicians install this fitting where liquidtight conduit terminates and cable strain relief is required.

This cord grip is suited for applications where cables enter enclosures, junction boxes, or control panels through liquidtight conduit systems. The straight body configuration is used when a direct, in-line entry is required without any angular offset. Its iron-and-zinc construction handles the mechanical stress and environmental exposure typical of industrial facilities, manufacturing environments, and large commercial electrical systems. The 2-1/2 inch NPT thread size places it in the range of larger-diameter cable runs common in power distribution and motor feed applications.

Key Features

• Accepts cable diameters from 1.75 to 1.965 inches for a range of large cable sizes
• 2-1/2 inch NPT thread for secure, leak-resistant conduit termination
• Straight body configuration for direct in-line cable entry
• Iron construction with zinc finish for corrosion and mechanical durability
• Overall length of 3.75 inches for standard panel and enclosure fitment
• Liquidtight design maintains moisture seal at conduit termination points

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for liquidtight conduit systems requiring a 2-1/2 inch NPT straight cord grip with a cable capacity up to 1.965 inches.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. De-energize the circuit and verify with a meter before handling any cable connections at the enclosure entry point. Thread the cord grip into the NPT knockout by hand first, then tighten with the appropriate wrenches to achieve a secure, liquidtight seal without over-stressing the fitting body. Verify that the cable is properly clamped and that the liquidtight seal is intact before restoring power.
