The Helukabel 94260 is a high-quality polyamide lock nut designed for secure and reliable cable gland installation. Engineered for durability and precision, this M12 component ensures that cable glands remain firmly in place, preventing accidental loosening in various industrial and electrical environments. Its robust polyamide construction offers excellent resistance to mechanical stress, making it a dependable choice for maintaining cable integrity over long periods.

Advantages

This lock nut features a specialized design with a collar that provides a larger sealing area, which significantly simplifies the installation process when using an additional O-ring for enhanced protection. The high-grade polyamide material ensures long-lasting performance and resistance to environmental factors. By providing a secure fit, it helps maintain the safety and stability of electrical connections in demanding setups.

Suitable for

• Securing cable glands in industrial machinery
• Electrical control panels and distribution boxes
• Automation and robotics cabling systems
• Outdoor and indoor electrical installations

This lock nut may not be suitable for applications involving extreme chemical exposure or temperatures exceeding the thermal limits of polyamide. It is also not intended for use in high-vibration environments where metal lock nuts might be required for superior structural reinforcement.

Key specifications

• Thread size: M12
• Material: Polyamide
• Color: Grey
• Quantity per pack: 100 pieces
• Design: Counternut with collar

How to use

To install the Helukabel 94260, slide the lock nut onto the threaded portion of the cable gland before inserting it into the enclosure wall. Once the cable gland is positioned, tighten the lock nut firmly against the inner surface of the housing. If an O-ring is being used for increased ingress protection, ensure it is properly seated against the collar of the nut to create a reliable seal.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the M12 thread size matches your specific cable gland requirements.
• Ensure the material properties of polyamide are compatible with your operating environment.
• Check the required quantity to ensure the 100-piece pack meets your project needs.

Usage recommendations: Always ensure the lock nut is tightened sufficiently to prevent rotation, but avoid overtightening to prevent damage to the polyamide threads. Regularly inspect the installation during routine maintenance to confirm that the connection remains secure.
