FAQs
What is the IP rating of this cable seal?
The Scanstrut Single Cable Seal features an IP68 rating, signifying complete protection against dust ingress and immersion in water up to a specified depth.
Can I use this for cables larger than 10mm?
No, this seal is designed specifically for cable diameters between 6mm and 10mm. Using cables outside this range may compromise the waterproof seal.
Does it come with screws for mounting?
Screws are not included with the Scanstrut Single Cable Seal. You will need to provide appropriate screws for your mounting surface.
Can this seal be mounted vertically?
While designed for horizontal cable entry, it may be possible to mount vertically depending on the specific application. However, its primary design and optimal performance are achieved with horizontal routing.
What materials is the seal made from?
The seal is constructed from high-quality, UV-stable plastic designed to withstand outdoor exposure and resist degradation from sunlight.
How do I ensure a proper waterproof seal?
Ensure the cable is centered within the seal and that the seal is tightened firmly around the cable. For added security in critical applications, consider using a marine-grade sealant around the base of the seal where it meets the mounting surface.
Troubleshooting
Water ingress after installation
Ensure the cable diameter is within the 6-10mm range and that the seal is tightened securely around the cable. Check that the mounting surface is flat and that the seal was installed with appropriate sealant if required for the specific application (sealant not included).
Cable is too loose or too tight
Verify the cable's diameter. If it's outside the 6-10mm range, this seal is not compatible. If it's within the range but still loose, consider using a cable gland adapter or adding a wrap of tape to the cable to increase its diameter slightly for a snugger fit. If too tight, ensure no sharp bends are restricting the cable within the seal.
Seal is degrading or cracking
This indicates prolonged exposure to harsh UV conditions or chemicals. While designed to be UV-stable, extreme conditions may accelerate wear. Replacement with a new seal is recommended for continued protection.
Pros and Cons
Pros

- Designed for clean, horizontal cable routing

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The Scanstrut Single Cable Seal is designed for straightforward screw installation. First, determine the correct location for your cable entry. You will need to drill a hole appropriate for the seal's mounting flange. Once the hole is prepared, position the seal and secure it firmly using screws (not included). Ensure the cable is fed through the seal before final tightening. The seal is designed to clamp down onto the cable, creating the waterproof barrier.
Compatibility: This seal is compatible with cable diameters ranging from 6mm to 10mm. It is suitable for various types of electrical and antenna cables, including coaxial cables, power cables, and network cables.
Care: To maintain the seal's integrity, periodically inspect it for any signs of damage or wear. Clean the exterior with a mild soap and water solution using a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the UV-stable plastic.
