Bettermann 107VS VM 12 PA Blanking Plug M20/PG16 Light Grey

The Bettermann 107VS VM 12 PA blanking plug is a reliable solution for sealing unused cable entry points in electrical enclosures, junction boxes, and distribution boards. Engineered for versatility, this plug features dual thread compatibility for both M20 and PG16 standards, allowing it to be used in a wide variety of industrial and commercial electrical setups. Constructed from high-quality polyamide, the plug provides a durable and secure seal that effectively protects internal components from dust, debris, and moisture ingress, ensuring the long-term integrity of your electrical systems.

Advantages

The primary advantage of this blanking plug is its dual-thread design, which simplifies inventory management by covering two common thread sizes with a single component. The polyamide material offers excellent mechanical strength and resistance to environmental factors, making it suitable for demanding conditions. Its light grey finish provides a clean, professional appearance that integrates seamlessly with standard electrical enclosures. Installation is straightforward and requires no specialized tools, allowing for quick and efficient sealing of unused ports to maintain the required ingress protection rating of the enclosure.

Suitable for

• Sealing unused M20 cable entries in junction boxes
• Closing off PG16 threaded ports in electrical enclosures
• Maintaining IP protection ratings in industrial control panels
• Protecting internal wiring from environmental contaminants

When it may not be suitable

This blanking plug is not intended for use in environments requiring extreme chemical resistance or high-temperature exposure beyond the limits of standard polyamide. It should not be used in applications where a metallic seal is specifically mandated by safety regulations or fire protection standards.

Key specifications

• Thread types: M20 and PG16
• Material: Polyamide
• Color: Light grey
• Application: Cable entry sealing

How to use

To install the blanking plug, ensure the enclosure or junction box is de-energized if necessary for safety. Align the plug with the unused threaded entry point. Screw the plug into the opening by hand or using a standard wrench until it is firmly seated against the enclosure wall. Ensure the seal is tight to prevent the entry of dust or moisture. Do not overtighten, as this may damage the polyamide threads.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the thread size of your existing enclosure ports
• Check the required ingress protection level for your specific environment
• Ensure the material compatibility matches your installation requirements

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance and to maintain the enclosure's environmental seal, ensure the plug is tightened sufficiently to compress any integrated sealing elements. Regularly inspect the plug during routine maintenance to ensure it remains secure and free from physical damage.
