We'd like to keep in touch
We have some exciting things in the pipeline - if you'd like to be the first to know please enter your email address below.
Globally Approved, Explosive Atmosphere Cable Gland
• Effectively earths / grounds lead sheathed cables
• Metal-to-metal armour clamping
• Direct & remote installation
• Displacement type flameproof inner seal
• Controlled outer ‘load retention’ seal
• Unique OSTG prevents overtightening
• Designed to prevent coldflow, see CMP Technical Document TS001 (available upon request)
• -60°C to +130°C
• Globally marked, IECEx, ATEX & cCSAus
• EMC tested
Note: † Grooved Cone (X) is predominantly used for Wire Braid (e.g. GSWB, TCWB), Steel Tape Armour (STA, DSTA) and Aluminium Strip Armour (ASA) but is also suitable for Single Wire Armour (SWA), Aluminium Wire Armour (AWA) and Pliable Wire Armour (PWA) if the range is outside that of the Stepped Cone (W).
Note: Grooved Cone (X) dimensions shown in the Cable Gland Selection Table below are for a double wire strand of braid armour cables. Tapes can also be doubled over. For cables that have only a single layer of armour such as SWA the clamping range should be used as shown in the table below.
Stepped (W) Cone is suitable for Single Wire Armour (SWA), or Aluminium Wire Armour (AWA) cables.

Cable Gland Sealing Rings
The type of cable gland sealing ring used to achieve a seal on the cable sheath, plays a significant part in the performance and longevity of the cable. This is especially true in the case of braided and armoured cables having a softer inner bedding, when they are used for installations that require a sealing ring to be applied beneath the braid or armour. Below are some of the typical situations that have been experienced when different types of sealing rings are used.
