Helukabel M20 Polyamide Cable Gland IP68 with Locknut, 10-14mm Clamping Range, 15mm Thread

The Helukabel M20 polyamide cable gland is a robust solution designed for secure cable management and environmental protection in various electrical installations. Engineered for cables with a diameter ranging from 10mm to 14mm, this component provides reliable strain relief and a high-quality seal to maintain the integrity of your connections. With its IP68 protection rating, it effectively prevents the ingress of dust and water, ensuring long-term performance even in challenging industrial environments.

Advantages

This cable gland is constructed from high-grade polyamide, offering excellent mechanical strength and resistance to chemical exposure. The inclusion of a matching locknut simplifies the installation process, ensuring a firm and vibration-resistant fit on enclosures or panels. Its design facilitates a quick and secure cable entry, reducing assembly time while maintaining a high standard of safety and reliability for electrical systems.

Suitable for

• Industrial control panels
• Electrical junction boxes
• Automation equipment enclosures
• Outdoor electrical installations requiring moisture protection

This product may not be suitable for applications involving extreme high-temperature environments that exceed the thermal limits of polyamide material. It is also not intended for use in high-pressure steam cleaning areas or environments with aggressive chemical solvents that could degrade the plastic housing over time.

Key specifications

• Thread size: M20
• Clamping range: 10-14mm
• Thread length: 15mm
• Material: Polyamide
• Protection rating: IP68
• Includes: Locknut

To install the cable gland, insert the threaded body through the pre-drilled hole in your enclosure panel. Secure it firmly from the inside using the provided locknut. Once the gland is fixed, loosen the dome nut, insert your cable through the seal, and tighten the dome nut until the internal gasket compresses around the cable jacket to create a watertight seal.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the panel hole diameter matches the M20 standard.
• Ensure the cable outer diameter falls within the 10-14mm range.
• Check the wall thickness of your enclosure to ensure the 15mm thread length is sufficient.

Usage recommendations: Always ensure the dome nut is tightened sufficiently to achieve the IP68 seal, but avoid overtightening to prevent damage to the plastic threads. Periodically inspect the gland for signs of wear or environmental degradation in harsh outdoor conditions.
