† 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

Industry Standard Cable Gland Designations
Cable glands may be designed, tested and manufactured to various standards around the world, but as a long established UK-based manufacturer, part of CMP’s history includes close participation in the development of British Standards for these products.
Read moreTypical cable gland selection
Follow CMP's flowchart for guidance on how to select a cable gland based on your application and cable type.
Read moreCable Gland Sizing – Enlarged Cable Diameters
The CMP combination gland concept utilises the forward portion of one cable gland size andthe rear portion of the next cable gland size up (larger). This enables cable gland selection for braided or armoured cables where the difference between the inner bedding and outer sheath cannot be accommodated with a standard cable gland size. Combination cable glands for braided & armoured cables are available for both industrial and explosive atmospheres cable gland types with both inner and outer seals.
