Tube cable outlet

Tube cable outlets, also known as cable glands, cord grips, or cable entry systems, are mechanical devices designed to secure and protect the end of an electrical cable at the point of entry into equipment, enclosures, or junction boxes. These components provide strain relief, sealing against dust and moisture (IP ratings up to IP68), and ensure electrical continuity for grounding or bonding. They are available in various materials such as brass, stainless steel, nylon (polyamide), and plastic, with thread types including metric (M), PG, NPT, and G. Key technical parameters include clamping range (cable diameter), thread size, temperature range, and ingress protection level. They are essential for maintaining cable integrity in industrial, commercial, and hazardous environments.

Tube cable outlets are widely used in electrical panels, control cabinets, automation systems, motor connection boxes, lighting fixtures, and field instrumentation. They are critical in sectors such as manufacturing, oil and gas, chemical processing, water treatment, renewable energy (solar and wind), and building services. In hazardous areas, explosion-proof cable glands (Ex d, Ex e) are required to prevent ignition. They also serve in data centers, telecommunications, and railway signaling for secure cable management.

Our range includes standard cable glands, EMC glands for electromagnetic compatibility, armored cable glands for steel wire or tape armored cables, and multi-hole glands for multiple cables. Common article codes follow patterns like CG-M20-12 (cable gland, M20 thread, 12mm clamping range) or A2-M25-16 (stainless steel, M25, 16mm). Subcategories include metric brass glands (e.g., CG-M16-10), nylon glands (e.g., CG-N20-14), and explosion-proof glands (e.g., EX-M25-20). Each code typically encodes material, thread type, and clamping range.
