Cable gland Scame PG-16 model 805.3344 for cable entry and strain relief

The Scame cable gland PG-16 model 805.3344 provides a secure cable entry and strain relief solution for electrical enclosures and industrial equipment. Designed for PG-16 cable sizes, this gland ensures mechanical retention of the cable at the entry point and helps maintain routing and fixation inside panels, junction boxes and machinery. It is suitable where a simple, robust method of preventing cable pull-out and controlling cable routing is required.

Advantages

The PG-16 cable gland offers reliable mechanical retention and straightforward installation without special tools. Constructed to provide consistent grip on cables of the appropriate diameter, it supports strain relief and helps reduce stress on internal terminations. Its design contributes to tidy cable routing at enclosure entries and minimizes the risk of accidental disconnection caused by cable movement.

Suitable for

• Industrial control panels and electrical cabinets
• Junction boxes and terminal enclosures
• Machinery where cable fixation and strain relief are required
• Field-installed or retrofitted cable entries for power and control circuits

Key specifications

• Cable size compatibility: PG-16 standard range (suitable for cables matching PG-16 dimensions)
• Function: cable entry and mechanical strain relief
• Typical mounting: panel or enclosure threaded entry for secure attachment
• Material characteristics: designed for durable mechanical performance in electrical installations
• Application environment: intended for indoor industrial and machinery enclosures

How to use

Prepare the enclosure knockout or threaded entry sized for a PG-16 gland and insert the gland body through the panel opening. Pass the cable through the gland and adjust position so the cable is seated correctly inside the enclosure. Tighten the gland nut or retaining component to compress the sealing and clamping elements until the cable is held firmly without damaging insulation. Verify that the cable cannot be pulled free and that internal terminations are not under mechanical stress.

Usage recommendations

For reliable long-term performance, select a gland that matches the actual cable outer diameter, avoid over-tightening which could damage cable insulation, and ensure the mounting thread and panel thickness are compatible with the gland design. If environmental sealing beyond basic mechanical protection is required, consider complementary sealing or a gland variant specified for higher ingress protection.
