Overview

The ABB SP-NPT38-B spiral cable/cord fitting provides secure, watertight cable entry for industrial applications requiring robust strain relief and environmental sealing. Designed by ABB Installation Products, this fitting features a 3/8-inch National Pipe Thread (NPT) trade size and accommodates cable diameters from 0.197 to 0.394 inches (5-10mm). Constructed from durable Polyamide 6, the body and cap deliver long-lasting performance in harsh conditions, while a Neoprene sealing ring ensures an IP68 ingress protection rating—resistant to dust and water immersion up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. Key features include an integral strain-relief mechanism to prevent cable damage from mechanical stress, a full-length bushing seal for enhanced protection, and a corrosion-resistant design ideal for wet or dry locations. The black finish offers a discreet aesthetic suitable for control panels, machinery, and outdoor electrical enclosures. With a working temperature range of -34°C to +105°C (-29°F to +221°F), this fitting meets UL514B, CSA C22.2-18.3, and NFPA 70 (ANSI) standards, making it a reliable choice for OEM and MRO applications in robotics, packaging equipment, and machine tool building. Compatible with non-armored and portable cables, the SP-NPT38-B is distributed in standard packaging of 250 units per box and 50 units per inner package. Its threaded design (0.590-inch / 15mm thread length) ensures a secure, leak-proof connection when paired with appropriate gaskets and lock nuts. For installations requiring multiple cable strain relief, this fitting provides a professional-grade solution with minimal maintenance.
