The NESCO ASB-8 is a Size #8 anti-short bushing engineered for larger MC and AC cable installations — the kind you encounter on commercial feeders, industrial service entrances, and heavy-duty branch circuits. When you terminate 2 IN to 2-1/2 IN metal-clad cable, the cut armour edge can abrade conductor insulation and cause short circuits over time. The ASB-8 snaps securely over the cut end to create a smooth, insulated barrier that keeps conductors protected and installations code-compliant. Rated for 90 °C applications, this bushing is built to perform in demanding environments where standard bushings fall short. Sold in a box of 10, so your crew has enough for multi-cable runs without reordering.
