Overview

The ABB 2446 watertight connector is a die-cast zinc hub designed for oval cables with a hub size of 1 1/4 inches. It features a neoprene bushing that ensures a secure, watertight seal around oval cables ranging from a minimum of 0.565 x 0.965 inches to a maximum of 0.750 x 1.150 inches. This connector is ideal for industrial environments where moisture resistance and cable strain relief are critical. The die-cast zinc body provides robust mechanical strength while maintaining corrosion resistance, making it suitable for outdoor and harsh indoor applications. The neoprene bushing compresses around the cable to prevent water ingress, dust, and contaminants, ensuring reliable performance in wet or dirty conditions. Common applications include outdoor lighting, industrial machinery, HVAC systems, and marine equipment where oval cables require secure, weatherproof termination. The 1 1/4-inch hub size accommodates standard oval cable glands and fittings, ensuring compatibility with existing infrastructure. This connector meets industrial standards for watertight integrity and is manufactured by ABB, a trusted name in electrical installation products. The ABB 2446 is part of a comprehensive line of cable management solutions designed for durability and ease of installation.
