Lapp SKINDICHT SHVE-M20x1.5 Brass Cable Gland, EMC Shielded, IP68, 25 Pieces

The Lapp SKINDICHT SHVE-M20x1.5 is a high-performance brass cable gland engineered for demanding industrial environments where electromagnetic compatibility is essential. This component provides a robust solution for cable entry, ensuring that sensitive electrical connections remain protected from external interference while maintaining structural integrity. With a durable brass construction and an IP68 rating, this cable gland offers superior resistance to dust and moisture, making it a reliable choice for long-term installations.

Advantages

The primary benefit of this cable gland is its integrated EMC shielding capability, which effectively minimizes electromagnetic interference in complex electrical systems. The high-quality brass material ensures excellent mechanical strength and corrosion resistance, contributing to a longer service life even in harsh conditions. Furthermore, the design provides reliable strain relief, preventing cable damage and ensuring a secure connection that withstands mechanical stress. The inclusion of 25 pieces per pack offers a cost-effective and convenient solution for large-scale electrical projects.

Suitable for

• Industrial automation and control systems
• Machinery and equipment requiring EMC protection
• Electrical installations in environments with high dust or moisture levels
• Applications where secure cable strain relief is mandatory

When it may not be suitable

This cable gland is specifically designed for metallic shielding applications and may be unnecessary for standard, non-shielded electrical installations where cost-efficiency is the primary concern. It is also not intended for use in environments involving highly corrosive chemicals that could degrade the brass material over time.

Key specifications

• Material: Brass
• Thread size: M20x1.5
• Protection rating: IP68
• Length: 32 mm
• Quantity: 25 pieces per pack

How to use

To install the cable gland, insert the cable through the gland body and tighten the cap to secure the seal and the EMC contact. Ensure that the cable diameter matches the clamping range of the gland to achieve the specified IP68 protection. Proper tightening is essential to maintain both the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness and the environmental seal against dust and water ingress.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the M20x1.5 thread size is compatible with your enclosure or equipment port.
• Ensure the cable diameter is within the specified range for this model.
• Confirm that the application requires EMC shielding to justify the use of this specific gland type.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, ensure that the contact between the cable shield and the gland is clean and free of debris during installation. Regularly inspect the connections in high-vibration environments to ensure the gland remains securely tightened.
