Overview

The ABB STAR TECK stainless steel jacketed cable fitting (SKU: ST050-464SS) is a field-proven solution designed for Teck and ACWU cable terminations in industrial environments. Developed as the first STAR TECK fitting with input from end-users, this pop-on design eliminates disassembly for faster installation compared to traditional gland fittings. The splined gland and gripping features ensure secure cable retention without damaging the jacket, while the 304 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance in harsh conditions. The 1/2" NPT hub accommodates jacket diameters from 0.600" to 0.760", making it suitable for medium-duty applications in manufacturing, oil & gas, mining, and chemical processing. Unlike standard compression fittings, the STAR TECK design simplifies assembly by snapping onto the cable jacket without tools, reducing labor time by up to 40% in field installations. The fitting meets industrial safety standards for vibration resistance and pull-out strength, ensuring long-term reliability in dynamic environments. Commonly used with armored cables in control panels, motor connections, and junction boxes where environmental protection and mechanical stability are critical.

How to Install Star Teck™ ST050-464SS Cable Fittings

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing Star Teck™ ST050-464SS cable fittings, including cable preparation and proper sealing to ensure compliance with electrical codes.

Estimated time: 15m

Tools needed:

Hacksaw, Wrench, Wire strippers

Supplies needed:

Star Teck™ ST050-464SS Cable Fitting, Armored Cable, Enclosure or Device

  1. Disconnect Power and Select Fitting

    WARNING: Disconnect all power before beginning installation to prevent risk of shock. CAUTION: This product must be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with national and local electrical codes. Select the appropriate Star Teck™ fitting (e.g., ST050-464SS) that matches your enclosure and the cable being used, referring to the provided table for specifications.

  2. Prepare the Cable Armor and Jacket

    Determine the required working length of the conductor inside the enclosure or device. Carefully remove a portion of the cable's outer jacket to expose the armor. Using a hacksaw, cut the exposed armor to the specified strip length from the table. Trim the outer jacket to adjust the exposed armor strip length. CAUTION: Do not nick or cut the conductor insulation during this process.

  3. Insert Cable into Gland Nut

    Feed the prepared cable through the gland nut opening of the fitting. Push the cable until its armor firmly contacts the internal end stop of the fitting, as shown in Figure 3.

  4. Secure and Seal the Gland Nut

    Tighten the gland nut using a wrench until an appropriate seal is achieved or to the maximum torque specified in the table. Ensure the bushing seals evenly around the cable's outer jacket and that the cable remains centered within the fitting for an optimal, watertight seal, as illustrated in Figure 4.
