Advantages

This cable gland offers excellent mechanical stability and strain relief, preventing cables from being pulled out or damaged at the entry point. The high-quality plastic construction is resistant to environmental factors, ensuring long-term durability in various settings. By providing a secure seal, it helps maintain the internal environment of the enclosure, protecting sensitive electrical components from external debris and moisture.

Suitable for

• Securing cables in electrical junction boxes
• Industrial control panels and distribution boards
• Commercial electrical installations requiring IP55 protection
• Cable management in dry or sheltered outdoor environments

When it may not be suitable

This product is not intended for use in environments requiring high-pressure water jet protection or total submersion, as it is rated for IP55. It is also not suitable for applications involving extreme chemical exposure or high-temperature environments that exceed the thermal limits of standard plastic materials.

How to use

To install the Hensel STM 25, ensure the enclosure wall has a properly sized opening. Insert the cable gland through the hole and secure it firmly using the provided locking mechanism. Once the gland is fixed, feed the cable through the center opening and tighten the cap to compress the seal around the cable jacket, ensuring a snug fit that prevents movement and ingress.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the diameter of your cable to ensure it fits within the 25mm gland range
• Check the wall thickness of your enclosure to ensure compatibility
• Confirm that the IP55 rating meets the environmental requirements of your installation site

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance and to maintain the IP55 rating, ensure that the cable is inserted straight and that the sealing cap is tightened sufficiently to create a uniform seal around the cable sheath. Avoid over-tightening, which could damage the plastic threads.
