Collection: Metal Armour Cable Glands



Metal Armoured Cable Glands

Description:

Metal armoured cable glands are designed to securely terminate and seal armoured cables, ensuring proper strain relief, mechanical retention, and electrical grounding for the armour layer. These glands are essential for managing armoured cables such as SWA (Steel Wire Armour), AWA (Aluminium Wire Armour), and other types of metal-armoured cables. Constructed from durable materials like brass, stainless steel, or aluminium, they provide reliable performance in industrial, commercial, and hazardous environments.

Applications of Metal Armoured Cable Glands

Power Distribution Systems: We used to terminate armoured cables in power transmission and distribution networks, ensuring secure and reliable connections
.
Industrial Automation: Provides robust terminations for control and power cables in automated machinery and systems.

Hazardous Environments: Essential in petrochemical plants, oil refineries, gas facilities, and other locations with explosion risks.

Marine and Offshore Installations: Ideal for securing cables in corrosive environments like offshore platforms and docks.

Renewable Energy: Used in solar, wind, and hydro installations to terminate armoured cables running to inverters, transformers, and junction boxes.

Mining and Heavy Industry: Provides reliable cable terminations in rugged environments with high mechanical stress and vibrations.

Building and Infrastructure Projects: Ensures secure terminations for armoured cables in commercial and residential electrical installations.

Types of Metal Armoured Cable Glands

General-Purpose Glands: Suitable for standard installations where moderate environmental protection is required.

Weatherproof Glands: Designed for outdoor use, offering resistance to water, dust, and UV exposure.

Flameproof/Explosion-Proof Glands: Certified for use in hazardous areas with flammable gases, dust, or vapors.

Heavy-Duty Glands: Built for high-vibration and high-stress environments, providing extra mechanical strength and durability.

EMI/RFI Shielding Glands:
Specifically designed for installations where electromagnetic interference needs to be mitigated.

Advantages of Metal Armoured Cable Glands

Mechanical Strength: Provides secure anchoring of the cable armour, preventing pull-out and ensuring long-term durability.

Electrical Continuity: Maintains proper grounding of the metal armour, enhancing electrical safety and minimizing fault risks.

Environmental Protection: High IP ratings ensure resistance to water, dust, and other contaminants, protecting both the cable and the connected equipment.

Corrosion Resistance: Materials like brass and stainless steel offer excellent resistance to corrosion, making these glands suitable for harsh environments.

Wide Compatibility: Suitable for various armoured cable types, including SWA, AWA, and hybrid designs.

Safety Compliance: Meets industry standards like IEC, UL, and ATEX for safety and performance in regulated environments.

Ease of Installation: Designed for quick and secure installation with minimal tools, reducing setup time and costs.

Versatile Applications: Compatible with a range of cable sizes, environments, and thread types, making them suitable for diverse applications.

How to Choose the Right Metal Armoured Cable Gland

Cable Type and Size: Ensure compatibility with the specific type of armored cable (e.g., SWA, AWA) and its dimensions.

Application Environment: For outdoor or harsh conditions, select weatherproof or corrosion-resistant materials like stainless steel.

Thread Type: Match the gland’s thread type (Metric, BSP, PG, NPT) with the enclosure or junction box.

Environmental Rating: Choose glands with appropriate IP ratings (e.g., IP68 for submerged environments).

Compression Type: Use single compression for general-purpose applications and double compression for high-vibration or hazardous areas.

Safety Standards: Ensure compliance with required certifications like ATEX, IECEx, or UL for hazardous or regulated installations.

Temperature Range: Verify that the gland’s operating temperature range matches the environmental conditions.
