Lapp SKINTOP MS-XL 21 Cable Gland, Brass and Polyamide, 25 Pieces

The Lapp SKINTOP MS-XL 21 is a professional-grade cable gland engineered for secure cable entry and effective strain relief in demanding industrial environments. Constructed from a combination of high-quality brass and durable polyamide, this component provides a robust mechanical connection while ensuring the integrity of electrical installations. Each unit is designed to maintain a high level of environmental protection, making it an essential part of any reliable wiring system.

Advantages

The primary benefit of the Lapp SKINTOP MS-XL 21 is its exceptional durability and resistance to harsh conditions, thanks to its brass construction. It offers superior strain relief, which prevents cables from being pulled out or damaged at the connection point. The design ensures a consistent and reliable seal, maintaining IP68 ingress protection against dust and water. With a pack size of 25 units, it provides a cost-effective and convenient solution for large-scale electrical projects or maintenance tasks.

• Automation and machinery wiring
• Outdoor electrical equipment requiring moisture protection

When it may not be suitable

This cable gland is designed for specific thread sizes and may not be compatible with cables that fall outside the designated clamping range. It is not intended for use in environments where extreme chemical exposure exceeds the resistance capabilities of brass and polyamide materials.

Key specifications

• Material: Brass and Polyamide
• Ingress Protection: IP68
• Length: 45 mm
• Quantity: 25 pieces
• Colour: Metallic

How to use

To install the Lapp SKINTOP MS-XL 21, first ensure the cable is prepared by stripping the outer sheath to the appropriate length. Insert the cable through the gland body, which should already be mounted to the enclosure wall. Tighten the cap nut firmly to compress the internal sealing element around the cable. This action simultaneously secures the cable and creates a watertight seal. Ensure that the gland is tightened to the manufacturer's recommended torque to guarantee optimal performance.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify the required thread size for your specific enclosure
• Check the cable diameter to ensure it fits within the gland's clamping range
• Confirm the environmental conditions of the installation site

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance and to maintain the IP68 rating, ensure that the sealing nut is tightened evenly and that the cable is not subjected to excessive bending forces immediately after the gland entry point.
