High-Performance Nylon Cable Glands for Secure Cable Management

Nylon cable glands, also known as cord clamps or nylon cord seals, are essential components for providing strain relief, environmental protection, and secure sealing in electrical wiring systems. Our cable glands feature a sealing nut, gland body, and lock nut made from UL-certified nylon PA66, ensuring high mechanical strength and flame resistance. The seal ring and gasket are constructed from durable nitrile rubber (NBR) for reliable sealing.

Engineered with a precision clamping design, these glands can accommodate cables of various diameters. They offer superior tensile strength, along with IP68-rated waterproof and dustproof protection. Our nylon cable glands are also highly resistant to salt, acids, alkalis, alcohol, oils, and most industrial solvents—making them ideal for harsh and corrosive environments.

If you’re searching for durable and flame-retardant nylon cable glands for industrial or commercial use, our products are the perfect solution. We offer customizable options including black, gray, and special colors to meet your specific project needs. Custom sizes and thread types are also available upon request.

How to Choose the Right Nylon Cable Gland for Your Application?

Selecting the right nylon cable gland depends on several key factors that ensure safe and reliable performance in your specific setup.

  1. 1. Cable Diameter

    Start by determining the outer diameter of the cable to ensure it fits properly and securely. A snug fit protects the cable from strain and maintains a secure environmental seal.

  2. 2. Environmental Conditions

    Consider the operating environment—whether it’s moisture, dust, vibration, UV exposure, or chemical exposure. Make sure the gland’s rating (e.g., IP68, UV resistance, or chemical resistance) can withstand these conditions.

  3. 3. Connection Type

    Based on your housing design and mounting preferences, select the appropriate thread type or connection style, such as metric, PG, NPT, or quick-lock/hinge fittings.

How to Install a Nylon Cable Gland?

Proper installation improves termination quality and ensures long-term cable integrity. Follow these steps to install your nylon cable gland correctly:

They improve terminations by:

Determine the Correct Gland Size

Measure the outer diameter of the cable and refer to the manufacturer’s sizing chart to select the appropriate gland. Choosing the correct size ensures a tight seal and effective strain relief.

Prepare and Position the Gland

Thread the cable through the gland body. Ensure the sealing insert is properly aligned to grip the cable evenly.

Install the Gland into the Panel or Enclosure

Screw the gland body securely into the panel, enclosure, or junction box opening. Tighten it evenly to ensure a stable and leak-proof fit.

Secure with the Locknut

Attach the locknut from the inside of the panel (if applicable). Tighten with a screwdriver or wrench to lock the gland in place and prevent rotation or loosening over time.

Precautions When Using Nylon Cable Glands

To ensure safe, reliable, and long-lasting performance, it’s important to follow proper precautions when installing and using nylon cable glands. Here are key guidelines to keep in mind:

Choose the Correct Size

Always select a cable gland that matches the outer diameter of your cable. Using a gland that’s too large or too small can compromise the seal and potentially damage both the gland and the cable.

Inspect Before Installation

Before use, carefully inspect the cable gland for any cracks, warping, or defects that may affect its performance. Damaged components should not be used.

Follow Manufacturer Instructions

Proper installation is critical. Always refer to the manufacturer’s installation guide to ensure correct assembly, torque, and positioning. Improper installation may result in a poor seal or strain relief failure.

Perform Routine Maintenance

After installation, regularly inspect the cable gland as part of your maintenance routine. Check for signs of wear, cracking, or loosening. If any damage is detected, replace the gland immediately to maintain safety and performance.
