• Applications requiring IP68 dust and water protection
• Installations involving cables between 5mm and 10mm in diameter

When it may not be suitable

This product is designed for standard industrial environments and may not be suitable for applications involving extreme chemical exposure or high-temperature zones exceeding the thermal limits of polyamide. It is also not intended for use with cables outside the specified 5-10mm diameter range.

Key specifications

• Material: Polyamide
• Thread size: PG11
• Thread length: 8mm
• Clamping range: 5-10mm
• Ingress protection rating: IP68
• Color: Light grey
• Includes: Locknut

How to use

To install the cable gland, first insert the threaded body through the pre-drilled hole in your enclosure wall. Secure the gland firmly in place by tightening the included locknut from the inside of the enclosure. Once the gland is fixed, loosen the dome nut slightly, insert your cable through the gland, and tighten the dome nut until the internal seal compresses securely around the cable jacket to provide strain relief and environmental sealing.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the PG11 thread size matches your enclosure hole diameter
• Ensure your cable diameter falls within the 5-10mm range
• Check if the environmental conditions require IP68 protection
• Confirm that the polyamide material is compatible with your specific operating environment

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance and to maintain the IP68 seal, ensure the dome nut is tightened sufficiently to compress the internal gasket evenly around the cable. Avoid over-tightening the locknut to prevent damage to the enclosure or the gland threads.
