Cable Gland Accessories | Locknuts, Seals & Adapters
Match each cable gland with the accessories needed for the enclosure: locknuts for panel mounting, stop plugs for unused entries, sealing washers and O-rings for specified interfaces, and reducers or enlargers for compatible thread sizes. Check thread form, material, dimensions and sealing requirements before ordering.

Thread Accessories Applications
High-strength Locknuts and Stop Plugs are produced to ensure structural integrity. These accessories provide vibration-proof fastening and seal redundant entry holes, maintaining a secure environment for internal sensitive electronics.
Our Sealing Washers and O-Rings are produced with premium rubber for IP68 industrial waterproofing. They prevent moisture ingress in high-voltage distribution boards exposed to harsh conditions.
Precision Thread Reducers are produced to facilitate PG/Metric thread conversion. This allows flexible adaptation of small-diameter sensor cables into standard enclosure knockouts for hardware compatibility.
Our accessories provide IP68 industrial waterproofing. They are essential for protecting electrical connections in solar inverters and wind turbine enclosures against harsh environments.
FAQ: Optimizing Your Cable Management with Precision Thread Accessories
The key to achieving an IP68 protection rating lies in the synergy between the Sealing Inserts and O-Rings. Even the highest quality Thread Reducers require a properly seated NBR or Silicone O-Ring to prevent moisture ingress.
Decision Info: For high-temperature environments, we recommend Silicone O-Rings; for standard industrial use, NBR (Nitrile Rubber) offers excellent oil resistance.
Yes. This is the primary function of our Thread Reducers & Enlargers. Often, an enclosure comes with pre-drilled PG holes, but your project specifications require Metric (M) UL certified cable glands.

Note: As we’ve discussed previously, our UL certified cable glands are available in standard PG/M models, and these adapters allow you to bridge that gap seamlessly.
Choosing the right material is a critical decision-making step based on your installation environment:
| Feature | Nylon (PA66) Accessories | Brass (Nickel-Plated) | Stainless Steel (SS304/316) |
| Corrosion Resistance | High (Chemicals) | Moderate | Extreme (Marine/Food) |
| Temperature Range | -40℃ to 100℃ | ‘-60℃ to 200℃ | ’-60℃ to 250℃+ |
| Typical Use Case | Commercial Wiring | Industrial Machinery | Oil & Gas / Offshore |
| Best For | Cost-efficiency | Durability & Grounding | Maximum Longevity |
Absolutely. While the external housing of our glands remains standard, we provide specialized Flat Hole Sealing Inserts.
Technical Tip: The flat cable gland is essentially a standard gland where only the rubber insert changes to a flat hole profile. This allows you to use your existing stock of PG/M glands while simply swapping the internal seal to accommodate flat ribbon cables.
Unused entry points are the weakest link in an explosion-proof or waterproof enclosure. Our Stop Plugs (available in Hex-head or Round-head) ensure that your IP68/IP69K rating is maintained even when a cable gland is removed or a hole is pre-drilled for future expansion.
