Cable glands are standard cable entries that provide a good seal and complete protection where the cable is inserted. They are simply screwed into an existing threaded hole or socket, allowing the wire to continue sealing the wall or enclosure as it is fed through the carefully sized hole. These special cable glands are IP68 rated, making them suitable for excellent indoor and outdoor use.

Cable glands are used in various applications that benefit from or require encapsulation or sealing. They are consistently used by electrical engineers running cables and wires through areas needing protection. White and black versions are available for specific design requirements. Examples of cable gland applications include:

• Plants with sensitive internal parts
• Telecommunications
• Flow meters
• Underwater power generators.
