To connect and protect. That is what Anamet Europe’s cable glands do. Cable glands perform a number of essential roles in cable management. Designed to attach and secure the end of an electric cable and the device it’s connected to, cable glands provide earthing, grounding, insulation, bonding and strain relief. For the most demanding projects and applications. To reliable operational readiness of technical systems. 

A cable gland should provide a correct IP seal and must be a strong mechanical connection between the cable and hardware components. In addition, the cable gland cannot have a negative influence on the cable. The cable gland should not cause ‘cold flow’ or damage the cable where the cable gland and the cable are pressed together and cause traction relief.

Cables can be built in different ways; they can have a range of different functions or meet very specific demands which allows them to be used in very specific industries. The Food and Beverage (hygienic) Industry, Rail, Oil & Gas, Energy and Renewable Energy are some examples of industries that each has very specific demands.

Often the cable gland is designed to continue or extend the function of the cable. This could be mechanical strength and composition of the cable, but also Electrical-Emitting Magnetic Current (EMC) shielding as well as the function maintenance of the cable.  

All of the above is the reason why there is a large diversity in the types and kinds of cable glands. Each with their own construction to meet specific demands, appliances and applications.
