Cable gland at best price

What is Cable gland? & its different types

  • It is a device designed to permit the entry of electrical cable into an electrical equipment which provide sealing ,retention , earthing , bonding , retention, strain relief etc
  • It is playing an important role in attaching and securing the end of electrical cables to different kind of an electrical equipment.
  • It is mainly applicable in electrical instrumentation , control , telecommunication cable in petrochemical and oil & gas industry.

How to select the cable gland?

Gland should be selected on following basis.

  1. Type of cable
  2. Gland size
  3. Entry type / Thread Specification of application.
  4. Ingress protection
  5. Material

Type of cable

  1. Unarmored cable
  2. Armoured cable
  1. Unarmoured cable -: The unarmoured cable have normal insulation on the conductor which provide ingress protection as well as the degree of retention.
  2. Armoured cable -: The armoured cable outside have a protective layer of galvanised steel or copper . Armoured gland require clamping mechanism to terminate the armour mechanically and electrically. It is usually required to provide ingress protection.

Different material of gland

  • Armour clamping -: Three part armour lock.
  • Sealing area -: Inner and outer sheath.
  • Generally outer seal bedding layer is used in cable in most of the climatic condition whether dry or in moisture condition.

5 Industrial type gland

  • Industrial glands are well designed to effectively terminate cables into industrial enclosure and it provides industrial enclosures on the cable.
  • Cable type -: Wire braid armour
  • Armour clamping -: Three part with lock nut
  • A compression type sealing technique is used.
  • It is recommended to go for PVC shroud for the sake of ingress protection.
  • This gland is suitable for rubber or plastic sheathed which terminates and secures the cable armouring and the outer seal grip of the cable which will ensure us about its mechanical strength and earth continuity.

6 Flexible Cable gland

  • It is spiral in shape.
  • The main purpose for it is to safeguard the cable from the sharp edges at an exiting hole where a cut is being made.
