Arlington Industries 846 Single-Screw Duplex Romex/BX Cable Connector, 3/8"
The Arlington Industries 846 is a single-screw duplex connector designed to secure two NM (Romex) or armored (BX) cables through a single 3/8" trade size knockout. Rather than requiring two separate connectors and two knockouts, the duplex configuration lets electricians route a pair of cables into one opening, saving space on crowded panels, junction boxes, and enclosures. The single-screw tightening mechanism provides a fast, secure connection point for each cable while keeping installation straightforward for field crews. Whether used in new construction or retrofit work, this connector delivers a compact, efficient way to bring NM and armored cable into a box.
Key Features
- Trade Size: Sized for a 3/8" knockout, this connector fits standard electrical boxes and enclosures without requiring oversized openings.
- Duplex, Two-Cable Design: A single connector body accommodates two cables through one knockout, reducing the number of openings needed on a box and helping preserve box fill space.
- Single-Screw Connection: Each cable is secured with a single screw, allowing for quick tightening and a dependable mechanical connection during installation.
- Romex/BX Compatibility: Purpose-built for NM (Romex) and armored (BX) cable, making this connector a versatile choice for both non-metallic and armored cable wiring methods.
- Space-Saving Layout: By combining two cable entries into one knockout, the duplex design helps installers maximize available panel and box real estate in crowded wiring runs.
