Gland handles large cables

A Lapp Group product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Sep 18, 2007

The Skintop MS-SC-M Brush is designed for use with copper braid screen cable with external diameters of between 11 and 45mm

Lapp's Skintop MS-SC-M incorporates a brush connecting system for use with larger diameter cables such as those used in industrial applications including control cabinet construction, engine and tool building, conveyor systems and the automotive, paper and packaging industries.

The Skintop MS-SC-M Brush is designed for use with a copper braid screen cable with external diameters of between 11 and 45mm and is available in metric threads from 32 to 63mm.

Lapp's brush system is EMC-safe and features thousands of brush strands in a circular arrangement which provide a wider and more variable clamping range and makes assembly, disassembly and installation simpler and faster.

Fitting the cable gland can be completed in a single operation.

Installers simply enter the cable into the gland, slide the screening braid under the brush, turn to close and the cable is automatically centreed, fixed, strain relieved and hermetically sealed to IP68.

A further benefit of using a brush attachment system is that alow-resistance screen contact is achieved.

In addition, it allows a high level of assembly flexibility, thereby allowing easy adjustment and rotation of the cable during installation.
