Top 4 poplular cable glands for industries you should know

Cable Gland is the name for a cable tightening screw or cable connector. Cable nuts are applied to control cables in hazardous or harsh environments, and absorb sparks of flames, blocking contaminants such as dust, dirt, and liquids.

The cable gland is applied in environments with high temperatures and hazardous substances, often exposed to sparks or containing a lot of dirt and liquids. Cable tightening screws ensure that the effects of the outside environment cannot penetrate inside the cable tray or electrical cabinet.

Cable tightening screws prevent the cable from being twisted or stretched, helping to maintain a stable connection with continuous, uninterrupted performance. Fasteners are designed in many different sizes, designs, and materials. Environments for cable gland application are:

• Factory and manufacturing machinery

• Robot Factory

• Factory under automation technology

• Shipyard

• Widely applied in railway technology and installation technology.
