In modern industries, electrical systems operate in harsh and complex environments where safety and reliability are non-negotiable. Industrial Cable Glands are essential components that protect and seal cable entries into equipment, panels, and enclosures. They ensure the integrity of cables against moisture, dust, vibration, and mechanical stress.
At Cabex India, we specialize in designing and manufacturing Industrial Cable Glands that meet global standards for performance and safety. Whether you need cable glands for heavy machinery, automation, or hazardous locations, our products guarantee long-lasting and secure connections.
What Are Industrial Cable Glands?
An Industrial Cable Gland (often called a cable connector or fitting) is a device designed to attach and secure the end of an electrical cable to equipment. It provides strain relief, sealing, and environmental protection for the cable and the electrical enclosure.
Cabex India’s Industrial Cable Glands are made from brass, stainless steel, aluminium, and nylon—materials chosen for their superior resistance to corrosion, impact, and extreme temperatures.
Types of Industrial Cable Glands
Different industrial setups require different gland designs. Some common types include:
Brass Cable Glands: Excellent for general-purpose industrial applications.
Stainless Steel Glands: Ideal for marine, chemical, or corrosive environments.
Nylon Cable Glands: Lightweight and non-metallic, suitable for indoor or low-vibration areas.
Armoured Cable Glands: Designed for cables with steel wire or tape armour to ensure proper earthing and mechanical retention.
Unarmoured Cable Glands: Used where cables don’t have metallic armour but still need secure sealing.
Each gland type is tested for electrical safety, environmental sealing, and mechanical strength.
Key Benefits of Industrial Cable Glands
Enhanced Protection: Safeguards cables from dust, dirt, and liquid ingress.
Mechanical Strength: Prevents pull-out, twisting, or vibration damage.
Corrosion Resistance: Suitable for outdoor and chemical-exposed applications.
Safety Compliance: Meets IEC, ATEX, and IP ratings for global use.
Longevity: Extends the operational life of cables and equipment.
When installed correctly, cable glands ensure both electrical safety and long-term reliability.
Applications of Industrial Cable Glands
Industrial Cable Glands are used in nearly every electrical and automation field, including:
Oil Gas Refineries – Providing explosion-proof cable sealing.
Power Generation Plants – Ensuring safe power transmission.
Automation and Robotics – Protecting flexible cables under constant motion.
Marine Offshore Industries – Resisting saltwater and corrosion.
Construction and Infrastructure – Securing cables in building management systems.
Renewable Energy Installations – Used in wind turbines, solar panels, and control panels.
No matter the application, Cabex India’s cable glands guarantee performance, protection, and peace of mind.
