Panduit CCAL1H2732-X One-Hole Aluminum Cable Cleat, 27-32mm, Pack of 10

Overview

The Panduit CCAL1H2732-X is a single-cable, one-hole aluminum cable cleat designed for low-to-medium short-circuit fault environments where corrosive exposure is limited. Certified to IEC 61914:2015 and tested to a 93.4 kA peak fault current rating, this cleat provides the mechanical retention needed to keep cables secured during a fault event — a requirement on industrial power installations, cable trays in electrical rooms, and anywhere NEC or IEC codes mandate fault-rated cable management. Each pack contains 10 cleats, making it practical for project quantities on medium-density runs.

The cleat accepts single cables with an outer diameter of 27–32 mm (approximately 1.06–1.26 in), mounts direct to cable tray rungs via a single fixing hole using a user-supplied M10 bolt, and is stocked in natural aluminum finish. Insulating spacers and washers for galvanic corrosion protection are sold separately — factor that into your BOM if the tray material is dissimilar metal. If you search for this part without the suffix, CCAL1H2732-X (often searched as CCAL1H2732 X) will return the same unit.

Key Features

• 93.4 kA Peak Fault Current Rating: tested and certified to IEC 61914:2015, this cleat will mechanically retain the cable under the electrodynamic forces generated during a high-energy short circuit — critical in switchgear rooms, MCC lineups, and large-scale UPS installations where unretained cables become projectiles during a fault.
• 27–32 mm Cable OD Range: covers a practical mid-range of medium-voltage and large power cables. Verify your cable's finished OD (jacket included) before ordering — a cable at 26 mm or 33 mm needs a different part number.
• One-Hole Mounting via M10 Bolt: installs directly to a cable tray rung with a single M10 fastener (user-supplied), which simplifies installation on standard ladder-style trays and reduces per-cleat labor time compared to two-bolt configurations.
• Aluminum Construction — Natural Finish: aluminum cleats handle the mechanical loads of a fault event at lower weight than steel and perform well in dry or mildly humid indoor environments. Natural finish means no coating to chip or corrode in low-exposure areas; for chemically aggressive environments, evaluate a coated or non-metallic alternative.
• Galvanic Isolation Sold Separately: if the tray is steel and the cleat is aluminum, you have a dissimilar-metal contact that will corrode over time. Panduit offers insulating spacers and washers — order them at the same time as the cleats rather than sourcing them as a field afterthought.
• IEC 61914:2015 Certification: the global standard for cable cleats specifying test methodology for short-circuit retention, installation, and environmental performance. Having the certification on file simplifies compliance documentation for inspectors and engineers of record on international and US industrial projects.
• Pack of 10: the standard project unit. At 40 mm overall height and 62 mm overall width, each cleat has a compact profile that fits standard cable tray rung spacing without conflicting with adjacent hardware.

Integration and Compatibility

The CCAL1H2732-X is compatible with standard cable tray and wire management systems using ladder-style rungs sized for M10 hardware. It is designed for single-cable runs — do not stack or use for bundled multi-cable groups, as the cleat geometry is specific to individual cable retention. For installations requiring galvanic isolation (aluminum cleat on steel tray), source Panduit's insulating spacers and washers separately to complete a compliant assembly.

Cross-reference competitor part numbers confirmed by Panduit: 1A-15N, 371AA05, 370BA06, 1BC2732A, DST-97, DSC-97, DSC-98, DST-98 — useful if you are replacing existing cleats from another manufacturer on a retrofit project.

For broader cable management infrastructure, pair these cleats with compatible cable tray sections and power distribution hardware to complete a code-compliant installation. Consult a cable cleat selection guide to confirm fault current class and cable OD before committing to a part number.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What cable outer diameter range does the CCAL1H2732-X accept?

A: The CCAL1H2732-X is rated for single cables with an outer diameter of 27–32 mm (approximately 1.06–1.26 in). Cables outside this range require a different cleat part number.

Q: What fault current rating has the CCAL1H2732-X been tested to?

A: It has been tested to 93.4 kA peak fault current and is certified to IEC 61914:2015.

Q: What fastener is required to mount the CCAL1H2732-X to a cable tray rung?

A: A single M10 bolt, user-supplied. The cleat mounts directly to a standard cable tray rung through the one fixing hole. M10 hardware is not included in the pack.

Q: Is galvanic corrosion protection included with the CCAL1H2732-X?

A: No. Insulating spacers and washers for protection against galvanic corrosion are sold separately. If you are mounting aluminum cleats to a steel tray, order those accessories alongside the cleats.

Q: How many cleats come in each pack?

A: Each pack contains 10 cleats (CCAL1H2732-X is a PK10 configuration).

Q: Is the CCAL1H2732-X suitable for outdoor or chemically corrosive environments?

A: Panduit's description positions this cleat for lower to medium short circuit fault applications in less corrosive environments. The natural aluminum finish is not optimized for chemical exposure or outdoor submersion. For harsh or outdoor environments, evaluate a coated or non-metallic cable cleat variant.

The CCAL1H2732-X hits the specific window most MCC and switchgear cable tray installations fall into: mid-range cable OD (27–32 mm), one-hole rung mount, aluminum body, and a 93.4 kA peak fault-current test result that satisfies IEC 61914:2015 documentation requirements without overbuilding for a standard low-to-medium fault environment.

Technical Highlights:

• 93.4 kA Peak Fault Rating: this isn't a theoretical number — it's the tested retention force at which the cleat held the cable during short-circuit simulation per IEC 61914:2015. On a project requiring engineer-of-record sign-off on cable retention, that test certificate is what gets the installation approved.
• 27–32 mm OD Window: sized for the large power cables common in 600V industrial distribution and medium-voltage runs. At 40 mm height and 62 mm width, the cleat body is compact enough to fit standard rung spacing on most Panduit or compatible tray systems without interfering with adjacent cleats.
• Single M10 Bolt Mount: one-hole design cuts installation time per cleat versus two-bolt alternatives — on a 200-cleat cable tray run that's a meaningful labor reduction. Bolt is user-supplied; specify grade and material to match your corrosion class.

Deployment Considerations:

• Galvanic isolation is not optional on steel trays — dissimilar metal contact between aluminum cleat and steel rung will corrode over a 10–20 year service life. Order Panduit's insulating spacers and washers as a line item, not a field decision.
• The 27–32 mm range is tight. Pull your cable spec sheet and confirm the finished OD including jacket before ordering — a cable at 26.5 mm or 32.5 mm is outside the rated range and this cleat won't perform as tested.

This cleat is the right spec for indoor electrical rooms, MCC lineups, and cable tray riser runs in commercial or light-industrial buildings where the fault exposure is low-to-medium and the environment is dry or mildly conditioned — not a fit for outdoor, chemical, or high-humidity applications where a coated or non-metallic cleat is the correct call.
