Lapp introduces brush cable gland

A Lapp Group product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Sep 24, 2008

Lapp Group UK has released new versions of its SKINTOP MS-SC-M brush cable gland with brush connecting system for larger diameter cables.

The cable gland is for copper braid screen cables with external diameters of 9-68mm, and is now available in metric threads from 25mm up to 75mm.

The brush system is EMC-safe and offers a quick and reliable alternative to the traditional spring contact method.

The cable gland features thousands of brush strands in a circular arrangement, which provides a wider and more variable clamping range and makes assembly, disassembly and installation simpler and faster.

The gland can be fitted in a single operation.

Users enter the cable into the gland, slide the screening braid under the brush, turn to close and the cable is automatically centred, fixed, strain-relieved and hermetically sealed up to protection class IP68.

A further benefit of using a brush attachment system is that an optimal low 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.
