What Are Cable Glands?

A cable gland is a device that attaches to the end of an electrical cable and secures it to a piece of equipment. They act as sealing and terminating devices for the protection of the electrical system from environmental factors. Metal cable glands can also provide earth continuity for armoured cables 

Cable glands may be made from a variety of plastics, metals, or a combination of the two depending on the intended application and environment.

Nylon Cable Glands

Our black nylon cable glands are an unobtrusive, heat-resistant, highly durable gland suitable for a variety of uses. These glands come in a wide range of sizes, and offer superior cable retention due to the secure locking mechanism. They can withstand continuous exposure to temperatures of 40°-100°C and short-term temperatures of 200°C. 

Armoured Cable Glands

Our armoured cable glands are made from nickel-plated brass and are designed for use with steel wire armoured cables. These are suitable for use in both indoor- and outdoor applications.

Flameproof Cable Glands

The Dorado series of flameproof cable glands are built from nickel-plated brass to stand up to the most punishing conditions. These glands are designed to accept a variety of cable sizes. The double O-ring seal prevents water intrusion into the armour of the gland. All of our flameproof bimetallic cable lugs glands have been rigorously tested to meet the most stringent standards.
