Cable side
Measure the outside diameter. For screened or armoured cables, include the construction and termination dimensions. For multi-hole seals, specify every cable opening.

A dimensional match does not establish sealing, temperature, EMC, armour or Ex suitability. Confirm cable construction, tolerances, seal and mounting conditions. Missing catalogue rows are not an indication of stock availability.

Send cable diameters, entry threads and quantities. Include your drawings and required documents.
Prepare an enquiryMatch both sides
of the connection.
A cable gland connects a cable to an equipment entry. Those are two different interfaces, with separate dimensions to check.
Equipment side
Identify the full entry thread and pitch, or clearance-hole dimensions. Check thread length, panel thickness, locknut engagement and spanner clearance.
Material
Choose the body, finish and seal for the environment. Nylon and metal are material groups; EMC and armoured describe additional functions.
Thread
Do not select by nominal diameter alone. Match the exact thread form, size and pitch to the equipment documentation.
Sealing
Check the model’s cable range and assembly instructions. IP performance depends on the complete sealing arrangement.
Special requirements
For EMC, armour, marine or hazardous-area work, review the model-specific construction and required evidence before ordering.
QUALITY & DOCUMENTATION
Specify the evidence.
Not just the rating.
Build the inspection and document requirements into your purchase specification. Confirm what is available for the selected model and configuration.
Discuss your specificationDimensions & threads
Agree the model drawing, cable range, thread designation and inspection requirements. Include critical dimensions and tolerances.
Body, finish & seals
Identify the body material, surface finish and seal compound. Confirm compatibility with the installation environment.
Sealing & assembly
Request the applicable test information and assembly conditions. Do not extend one series rating to the entire range.
Certification & traceability
Request documents that identify the exact model and scope. For Ex products, include the project classification and certificate requirements for specialist review.

BEFORE YOU ORDER
Cable gland
buying questions.
Confirm the model, documentation and commercial terms before placing the order.
How do I select a cable gland size?
Measure the cable outside diameter, then compare the clamping range of the exact model. Separately confirm the enclosure entry thread, pitch, thread length, wall thickness and installation clearance.
Does M20 mean the gland fits a 20 mm cable?
No. M20 identifies the entry thread designation, not the cable diameter. Different M20 models can have different cable clamping ranges and thread lengths. Use the model table.
Can Metric, PG, NPT and G threads be substituted?
Do not assume interchangeability. Match the complete thread designation and sealing arrangement to the equipment entry. Any adaptor must also be suitable for the installation.
Does an IP rating apply to every installation?
No. Check the selected model documentation, seal, cable range and assembly conditions. A catalogue rating does not approve a different cable shape, substitute seal or incorrectly assembled gland.
Can an ordinary metal gland be used for EMC or armoured cable?
Do not select on body material alone. Review the screen-contact or armour-termination arrangement, cable dimensions and bonding requirements for the exact series.
What documents are needed for Ex cable glands?
Provide the hazardous-area specification and request the certificate, marking and installation instructions covering the exact model. This page and its dimensional filter do not approve an Ex installation.
What are your MOQ and lead times?
Send quantities by model and size, packaging requirements and destination. Minimum quantities, sample terms, production timing and shipping arrangements are confirmed with the quotation.
Can I request my own logo and packaging?
Yes, you can submit a branding and packaging brief for review. Include artwork, model labels, barcodes and quantities per pack. Feasibility and minimum quantities depend on the product and customization scope.
