Extended Product Information

FAQs

What does IP68 and IP69 mean for this cable gland?

IP68 indicates protection against continuous immersion in water under specified pressure and duration. IP69K (often implied by IP69 in industrial contexts) provides protection against high-pressure, high-temperature spray downs, making it suitable for washdown environments.

Can this gland be used with non-metric threads?

No, this gland is designed specifically for M12x1.5 metric threaded openings. Using it with other thread types will not ensure a secure or sealed connection.

What is the operating temperature range?

The LAPP 53112100 cable gland can operate reliably in temperatures ranging from -40 °C to 100 °C.

What is the material of the gland?

The gland is constructed from Brass and Polyamide.

How is this product sold?

This product is sold in packs containing 100 pieces.

What type of connection thread does it have?

It features an M12x1.5 metric connection thread.

Troubleshooting

Gland does not seal properly

Verify that the cable's outer diameter is within the specified range for the gland's seal. Ensure the seal is correctly seated and not damaged. Check that the gland is tightened sufficiently.

Difficulty screwing gland into enclosure

Confirm that the enclosure has an M12x1.5 metric thread. Ensure the threads on both the gland and the enclosure are clean and free from damage or debris. Do not force the gland; check alignment carefully.

Cable pull-out under strain

Ensure the gland's clamping mechanism is tightened securely around the cable's outer jacket. Verify that the cable's outer diameter is appropriate for the gland's sealing insert.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent ingress protection (IP68 and IP69) against dust and water.
  • Durable brass material provides long-lasting performance.
  • Suitable for a wide range of operating temperatures.
  • Standardized M12 metric thread ensures secure and compatible connections.
  • High functional security for critical applications.

Cons

  • Specific M12 thread size limits compatibility to M12 openings.
  • Brass material can be heavier than plastic alternatives.
  • Not designed for applications requiring extreme flexibility or vibration damping without additional components.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Select an enclosure with a corresponding M12 threaded entry hole.
  2. Insert the cable through the gland's sealing insert.
  3. Place the gland into the M12 threaded hole and screw it in securely until hand-tight.
  4. Tighten the gland further using appropriate tools for a snug fit, ensuring the seal is engaged.
  5. Tighten the cable's outer jacket within the gland to secure it and maintain the seal.

Compatibility:

  • Thread: Designed specifically for M12x1.5 metric threaded openings.
  • Cable Size: Ensure the cable's outer diameter is within the range specified by the gland's sealing insert for optimal performance.
  • Environment: Suitable for applications within -40 °C to 100 °C operating temperatures and where IP68/IP69 protection is required.

Care:

  • Clean the exterior of the gland with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh solvents or abrasive cleaners that could damage the material or sealing.
  • Periodically check for tightness, especially in environments with significant vibration, and re-tighten if necessary.
  • Ensure the sealing surfaces remain clean and free from debris before installation.
