Panduit CCPL1H1316-X Polymer Cable Cleat, 1-Hole, 13-16mm, Pack of 10
The Panduit CCPL1H1316-X is a one-hole polymer cable cleat designed for short-circuit fault retention on single cables in the 13–16mm OD range. It is certified to IEC 61914:2015 and third-party tested to 69.5kA peak fault current — the number that tells you whether this cleat belongs in your installation or a heavier-duty unit does. If your fault current calculations land in the lower-to-medium range and the environment is not chemically aggressive, this cleat fits the brief.
Key Features
- IEC 61914:2015 Certification: Third-party laboratory tested, not self-declared. Compliance is documented against the international cable cleat standard, which matters when inspectors or insurance underwriters ask for test evidence on short-circuit restraint systems.
- 69.5kA Peak Fault Current Rating: Sized for lower-to-medium fault-current environments. If your system study produces fault currents beyond this threshold, step up to a steel or aluminum cleat — this polymer unit is not the right tool for high-incident-energy switchgear lineups.
- Glass-Filled Nylon Construction: The glass-filled nylon body handles the -40°C to +60°C (-40°F to +140°F) operating window, covering most indoor commercial and light industrial cable tray runs. The material keeps weight down and avoids the galvanic concerns that come with mixing metal cleats and aluminum tray.
- Rounded Edges for Insulation Protection: Cable insulation damage during a fault event is how a containable incident becomes a cascade. The rounded contact edges reduce the risk of insulation cut-through under the dynamic forces a short-circuit produces.
- Interlock Between Top and Bottom Halves: The interlock feature prevents rotation between the two cleat halves under load. Rotational slippage is a common failure mode in poorly designed cleats — this mechanical feature keeps the assembly aligned during a fault event.
- Ridges for Cable Retention: Internal ridges grip the cable jacket to resist axial movement, complementing the bolt-down fixing against lateral and transverse forces generated during a fault.
- Single M10 Bolt Fixing — Direct to Cable Tray Rung: Installs direct to the rung without adapters. You supply an M10 bolt; one fixing point per cleat keeps installation straightforward on standard cable tray. No proprietary hardware required.
- 13–16mm Cable OD Range: Matches common 13–16mm single-cable runs (0.51–0.63 in). Verify your stripped cable OD — not the listed nominal size — before ordering. The CCPL1H1316-X (often searched as CCPL1H1316 X) is one of ten sizes in the family covering 10–57mm total.
Integration and Compatibility
The CCPL1H1316-X installs on standard cable tray rungs using a single user-supplied M10 bolt. No dedicated tray system or proprietary hardware is required, making it compatible with most commercial and industrial cable tray configurations. The product is sized for single-cable use only — do not attempt to cleat two cables within one unit; that requires a two-hole or multi-cable cleat from the same family. Panduit cable cleats and accessories cover the full 10–57mm range across ten parts; mixing sizes within the same tray run is supported as long as each cable OD matches its assigned cleat size. Competitor cross-references for this size include 1BC1316, 1F-11, and 385AA02 — if you are replacing one of those units, verify the replacement OD window aligns before installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What cable diameter does the CCPL1H1316-X fit?
A: The CCPL1H1316-X is rated for single cables with an outer diameter of 13–16mm (0.51–0.63 in). Verify the actual stripped cable OD before ordering — nominal cable sizing often differs from measured OD.
Q: What standard is the CCPL1H1316-X tested to, and at what fault current level?
A: It is certified to IEC 61914:2015 and third-party tested to 69.5kA peak fault current. It is rated for lower-to-medium short-circuit fault environments.
Q: What hardware is needed to install the CCPL1H1316-X?
A: Installation requires a single user-supplied M10 bolt per cleat. The cleat fixes directly to a cable tray rung — no proprietary mounting hardware is included or required.
Q: What is the operating temperature range of the CCPL1H1316-X?
A: The glass-filled nylon body is rated from -40°C to +60°C (-40°F to +140°F), suitable for most indoor commercial and light industrial environments.
Q: Can the CCPL1H1316-X be used outdoors or in chemically aggressive environments?
A: Panduit describes this cleat as suited for less harsh environments. For outdoor, UV-exposed, or chemically aggressive locations, evaluate whether a higher-rated cleat material is required for your specific conditions.
Q: How many cleats are included per package?
A: Each package contains 10 cleats.
The CCPL1H1316-X sits in a product category that gets under-specified more often than almost anything else in a cable management bill of materials. The 69.5kA peak fault current rating is the controlling number here — it tells you exactly where this cleat belongs in the fault-current hierarchy and where it does not. I've seen installs where the integrator picked the polymer unit because it was available and priced right, without checking the fault study. That's the wrong sequence. Run the numbers first, then select the cleat.
Technical Highlights:
- 69.5kA Peak Fault Rating: Third-party lab verified against IEC 61914:2015 — not a calculated estimate. For lower-to-medium fault current panels and distribution runs, this covers the majority of commercial building cable tray applications.
- -40°C to +60°C Operating Range: Glass-filled nylon holds mechanical integrity across this window, which covers cold-climate data center exteriors and warm industrial mezzanines equally. Avoid sustained exposure above +60°C — thermoplastic creep becomes a concern.
- Interlock + Ridge Retention: The anti-rotation interlock between halves and internal ridges address the two most common cleat failure modes under fault load: rotation and axial slip. Both features are passive — no field adjustment required.
Deployment Considerations:
- The M10 bolt is not included — confirm you have the correct bolt length for your tray rung thickness before installation. A bolt that bottoms out before clamping force is achieved will not develop the rated retention load.
- This is a single-cable cleat only. Running two cables through one CCPL1H1316-X is not supported by the IEC 61914:2015 test basis — if you have parallel cables at the same OD, use individual cleats or a two-cable variant.
This cleat is the right specification for commercial office building distribution runs, light industrial cable tray in mechanical rooms, and data center branch circuits where fault current levels fall within the lower-to-medium range and the environment stays within the rated temperature window.
