Lapp Skindicht SM-PE PG13.5 Brass Lock Nut, Silver, 100 Pieces

The Lapp Skindicht SM-PE PG13.5 is a high-quality brass lock nut engineered for secure and reliable cable gland installation in industrial environments. This component is specifically designed to provide robust mechanical fastening while ensuring electrical continuity, making it an essential part of professional electrical setups. The silver-colored finish offers a clean, industrial aesthetic, and the durable brass construction guarantees longevity even in demanding conditions.

Advantages

The primary advantage of this lock nut is its integrated cutting edges, which are designed to penetrate insulating layers upon tightening. This feature is particularly beneficial for EMC-compliant installations, as it ensures a reliable electrical connection between the cable gland and the housing. The high-quality brass material provides excellent resistance to mechanical stress and environmental factors, ensuring that your cable glands remain securely in place over time.

Suitable for

• Industrial electrical installations
• EMC-shielded cable management systems
• Applications requiring secure mechanical fastening of cable glands
• Electrical panels and junction boxes

This product may not be suitable for applications involving highly corrosive environments where specialized coatings or stainless steel materials are required. Additionally, it is intended specifically for PG13.5 threaded interfaces and will not fit other thread sizes or standards.

Key specifications

• Material: Brass
• Thread size: PG13.5
• Color: Silver
• Quantity: 100 pieces per pack
• Features: Integrated cutting edges for electrical contact

How to use

To install the lock nut, thread it onto the cable gland from the inside of the enclosure. As you tighten the nut, the integrated cutting edges will penetrate any paint or insulating layers on the enclosure surface. This action creates a secure, low-resistance electrical contact necessary for EMC protection. Ensure the nut is tightened firmly to maintain the integrity of the connection.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your cable gland and enclosure hole are compatible with the PG13.5 thread standard.
• Ensure the enclosure material is suitable for the cutting action of the lock nut.
• Confirm the quantity required for your project, as this pack contains 100 units.

Usage recommendations: Always ensure the surface of the enclosure is clean and flat before installation to allow the cutting edges to make proper contact. Do not overtighten beyond the point of firm contact to avoid damaging the threads.
