Lapp Skindicht KUK PG13.5/PG9 Polyamide Reducer Cable Gland, Grey

The Lapp Skindicht KUK PG13.5/PG9 Polyamide Reducer is a high-quality component designed to facilitate the transition between different thread sizes in electrical installations. This grey reducer allows for the seamless integration of cable glands with smaller connection threads into existing larger threaded holes, ensuring a secure and professional fit. Manufactured from durable, glass fibre-reinforced polyamide, this component provides excellent mechanical stability and long-lasting performance in various industrial environments.

Advantages

The primary benefit of this reducer is its ability to adapt existing infrastructure without the need for complex modifications. Its glass fibre-reinforced construction ensures high resistance to mechanical stress, making it a reliable choice for demanding applications. The grey polyamide material is resistant to environmental factors, providing a robust solution that maintains its integrity over time while ensuring a precise and stable connection for cable entries.

Suitable for

• Industrial electrical installations
• Control cabinet manufacturing
• Machine building and automation systems
• Adapting existing threaded holes to smaller cable gland sizes

When it may not be suitable

This reducer is specifically designed for PG13.5 to PG9 thread transitions and is not compatible with metric or NPT thread standards. It should not be used in environments where extreme chemical exposure or temperatures exceed the thermal limits of polyamide material.

Key specifications

• Material: Glass fibre-reinforced polyamide
• Thread size transition: PG13.5 (outer) to PG9 (inner)
• Colour: Grey
• Quantity: 1 piece per pack

How to use

To install the reducer, simply screw the outer PG13.5 thread into the existing threaded hole of your enclosure or junction box. Once securely tightened, you can then install your PG9 cable gland into the inner threaded opening of the reducer. Ensure that all connections are tightened to the manufacturer's recommended torque to maintain the integrity of the installation.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your existing enclosure hole is threaded for PG13.5
• Ensure your cable gland is compatible with a PG9 thread
• Check if the environmental conditions are within the operating range of polyamide

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance and safety, ensure that the reducer is installed using appropriate tools to avoid over-tightening or damaging the polyamide threads. Regularly inspect the connection during routine maintenance to ensure it remains secure.
