Cable gland ML-145 IP68 M20 x 1.5 — No name

Cable gland ML-145 is an insulating cable gland with an M20 x 1.5 thread, rated IP68 for dust-tight and waterproof cable entries. It is designed to seal cable passages on enclosures and equipment exposed to moisture, splashes or temporary immersion. The component provides mechanical strain relief while maintaining an environmental barrier for cable connections in outdoor and industrial environments.

Advantages

The IP68 protection class ensures long-term resistance to water ingress and fine particles, supporting installations that require dependable enclosure tightness. The insulating construction prevents electrical continuity through the gland and reduces the risk of short circuits where conductors pass through metal panels. The standard M20 x 1.5 thread allows compatibility with common threaded entries and junction box knockouts, enabling straightforward installation and replacement.

Suitable for

• Sealing cable entries on outdoor junction boxes and control cabinets
• Providing waterproof feed-throughs for machinery and equipment
• Use in industrial panels and electrical enclosures exposed to dust and moisture
• Cable routing where mechanical strain relief and environmental protection are required

Key specifications

• Protection rating: IP68 for dust and water resistance
• Thread size: M20 x 1.5
• Function: insulating cable gland with strain relief
• Application environment: suitable for outdoor and industrial use

How to use

Drill or use an existing M20 threaded entry in the enclosure wall, then insert the gland and engage the thread until fully seated. Pass the cable through the gland and tighten the sealing nut to compress the internal sealing element around the cable diameter. Ensure the gland is tightened according to the enclosure material and cable outer diameter to achieve the specified IP68 seal and effective strain relief. Verify that no sharp edges or debris compromise the sealing surfaces before final assembly.

Usage recommendations

Choose a gland size that matches the cable outer diameter and confirm compatibility with the enclosure thread. For permanent IP68 performance, avoid repeated disassembly in wet conditions and inspect the gasket and sealing elements periodically for wear or damage.
