Ergom PG36 Polyamide Cable Gland IP68 Gray

The Ergom PG36 polyamide cable gland is a high-quality component engineered for the secure and reliable entry of cables into electrical enclosures, junction boxes, and control panels. Constructed from robust polyamide, this cable gland provides excellent mechanical strength and long-term durability, ensuring that cables remain firmly in place while being protected from environmental hazards. With its IP68 ingress protection rating, it offers a complete seal against dust ingress and protection against the effects of immersion in water, making it an ideal choice for demanding industrial and electrical installations.

Advantages

This cable gland excels by providing superior strain relief, which prevents cables from being pulled out or damaged at the connection point. The polyamide material is resistant to corrosion and various chemical agents, ensuring a long service life even in harsh operating conditions. Its design facilitates quick and easy installation, allowing for a tight, secure fit that maintains the integrity of the enclosure's seal. The gray finish provides a professional appearance that blends well with standard industrial equipment.

Suitable for

• Securing cables in electrical junction boxes
• Protecting wiring in industrial control panels
• Outdoor electrical installations requiring moisture resistance
• Machine building and automation systems
• Cable management in distribution boards

When it may not be suitable

This cable gland is designed for standard industrial applications and may not be suitable for environments involving extreme heat or exposure to specific aggressive chemicals that degrade polyamide. It is also not intended for use in high-pressure steam cleaning environments or areas subject to extreme mechanical impact that exceeds the material's structural limits.

Key specifications

• Thread size: PG36
• Material: Polyamide
• Ingress protection rating: IP68
• Color: Gray
• Function: Strain relief and cable sealing

How to use

To install the Ergom PG36 cable gland, first ensure the cable diameter is compatible with the gland's clamping range. Insert the cable through the gland body and tighten the dome nut firmly. As the nut is tightened, the internal seal compresses around the cable jacket, creating a watertight and dust-tight connection. Ensure the locknut is securely fastened on the inside of the enclosure to prevent the gland from rotating during operation.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the thread size matches your enclosure's entry hole
• Check the cable diameter to ensure it falls within the gland's clamping range
• Assess the environmental conditions of the installation site
• Ensure the enclosure wall thickness is compatible with the thread length

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance and to maintain the IP68 rating, ensure that the sealing washer is correctly positioned between the gland body and the enclosure wall. Do not overtighten the dome nut beyond the point of firm resistance, as this may damage the internal sealing components.
