Featuring an M12 thread size and an IP65 ingress protection rating, it provides reliable dust and moisture resistance.

## Long description

The Hensel AKM cable gland is a professional-grade polyamide fitting engineered to provide a secure and reliable cable entry point for electrical enclosures. Designed with an M12 thread size, this component ensures that cables are firmly held in place while maintaining the integrity of the enclosure. Its light grey finish integrates seamlessly with standard industrial equipment, offering a clean and functional appearance for various electrical installations.
Advantages
This cable gland offers exceptional durability due to its high-quality polyamide construction, which provides excellent resistance to mechanical stress and environmental factors. The design incorporates effective strain relief, preventing cables from being pulled out or damaged at the entry point. With an IP65 ingress protection rating, it offers robust defense against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets, ensuring the safety and longevity of the internal electrical components.
Suitable for
Securing cable entries in industrial control panels
Electrical distribution boxes in commercial buildings
Outdoor installations requiring protection against dust and moisture
General electrical wiring projects needing strain relief
When it may not be suitable
This cable gland is not intended for use in high-pressure washdown environments or areas subject to complete submersion, as it is rated for IP65 protection rather than higher levels like IP67 or IP68. Additionally, it may not be suitable for applications involving extreme chemical exposure or high-temperature environments that exceed the thermal limits of standard polyamide materials.
Key specifications
Thread size: M12
Material: Polyamide
Ingress protection rating: IP65
Color: Light grey
Function: Cable strain relief and environmental sealing
How to use
To install the Hensel AKM cable gland, first ensure the enclosure has a pre-drilled or punched hole of the appropriate size for an M12 fitting. Insert the gland body through the hole from the outside and secure it firmly using the provided locknut from the inside of the enclosure. Once the gland is fixed, pass the cable through the opening and tighten the dome nut. As the dome nut is tightened, the internal seal compresses around the cable jacket, creating a secure grip and a weather-resistant seal.
What to consider before purchase
Verify that the M12 thread size matches your enclosure's entry hole
Check the diameter of your cable to ensure it falls within the clamping range of the M12 gland
Confirm that the IP65 rating meets the environmental requirements of your specific installation site
Usage recommendations
For optimal performance and to maintain the IP65 rating, ensure that the cable is inserted straight and that the dome nut is tightened sufficiently to compress the internal sealing ring evenly around the cable jacket. Avoid over-tightening, which could potentially damage the plastic threads.
