Cable Gland Washers

Cable Gland Washers

 

Cable gland washers provide critical sealing and vibration resistance for industrial cable entries. Engineered to maintain ingress protection (IP66, IP68, IP69K) across enclosures and machinery, our washers prevent moisture, dust, and chemical ingress in demanding operational environments. Available in standard and custom dimensions for Metric, PG, and NPT thread profiles, backed by ISO 9001 certified manufacturing and strict lot traceability.

 

 
Key Features
 
 
 

Material Integrity:

Formulated from high-grade elastomer and metal compounds resistant to aging, UV exposure, and hydrocarbons.

 
 

Positive Sealing Structure:

Precision-molded profiles distribute clamping force evenly to eliminate leakage paths around the thread shank.

 
 

Vibration Dampening:

Absorbs mechanical shock, preventing cable glands from loosening under continuous machine vibration.

 
 

Thermal Stability:

Compounds engineered to maintain elasticity and sealing performance across wide temperature extremes.

Frequently Asked Questions

 

 

Q: How do I select the correct washer size for my cable gland?

A: Match the inner diameter and thread standard of the washer directly to the thread size of your cable gland (e.g., M20 gland requires an M20 washer).

Q: What is the difference between EPDM and NBR washers?

A: EPDM offers superior outdoor weathering, ozone, and UV resistance. NBR provides better resistance to oils, fuels, and industrial solvents.

Q: Can these washers be reused during maintenance?

A: We recommend replacing elastomeric washers during cable re-termination to ensure continuous IP68/IP69K sealing integrity.

Q: What is the standard minimum order quantity (MOQ)?

A: MOQs vary by material and size, typically starting at 1,000 pieces for standard stock items and 5,000 pieces for custom molded specifications.

Q: What are your typical production lead times?

A: Standard catalog items ship within 3 to 5 business days. Custom tooling and production runs typically require 12 to 18 business days.

Q: Do you provide free engineering samples?

A: Yes. Standard sample kits are available for prototyping and mechanical fit testing upon request.
