Description
5–10 mm Cable Entry for Solar, Battery & DC Systems
Route battery, solar, and inverter cable cleanly through an enclosure or equipment panel. Unlike a basic push-in fitting, the threaded polyamide nylon body locks securely to the panel while the compression cap grips the cable jacket. Dual NBR panel washers help seal both sides of the mounting surface for a clean, finished cable entry.
Fitment at a Glance
| Typical Use | Battery, solar, inverter, and DC cable |
| Cable O.D. Fit Range | 5–10 mm |
| Thread Length | 14.5 mm |

| Panel Sealing | Dual NBR Washers |
| IP Rating | IP68 — when properly sized, fitted, and installed |
Choose the gland by actual finished cable O.D. for proper sealing and grip. Check the gland against your mounting location before drilling.

Built for Solar, Battery & DC Systems
- Battery & Inverter Wiring — secure DC cable through battery boxes, inverter cabinets, and power panels.
- Solar Enclosures — route round-jacketed solar cable cleanly into combiner boxes and equipment enclosures.
- RV & Off-Grid Systems — create a finished cable entry through electrical compartments and bulkheads.
- DC Equipment — organize cable entry for chargers, controllers, junction boxes, and auxiliary equipment.
Why Use a Threaded Cable Gland?
- Threaded Mechanical Mounting — locks securely to the panel instead of relying on a push-in fit.
- Compression Cable Grip — tightens around the cable jacket for a secure, finished pass-through and helps reduce movement at the entry point.
- Lightweight Nonmetallic Body — polyamide nylon provides a tough, non-conductive choice for metal, composite, and plastic panels.
- Corrosion-Resistant Construction — a practical choice where a nonmetallic cable entry is preferred.
- Dual NBR Panel Sealing — washers sit on both sides of the mounting surface to help keep the entry sealed.
Cable Fit & Compatibility
Cable O.D. is the primary fit measurement. PV, battery, and inverter cables can vary significantly in outside diameter even when their conductor size is similar.
Published Cable O.D. Examples:
- Southwire 2000V XLPE PV Cable 10 AWG — 6.68 mm O.D.
- Southwire 2000V XLPE PV Cable 12 AWG — 6.17 mm O.D.
- WindyNation 600V XLPE PV Cable 12 AWG — 5.6 mm O.D.
- TEMCo Easy-Flex welding/battery cable — 6 AWG — 7.7 mm O.D.
- TEMCo Easy-Flex welding/battery cable — 4 AWG — 8.41 mm O.D.
Published manufacturer dimensions are provided as sizing examples. Cable jacket diameter varies by brand and construction; measure your finished cable O.D. before ordering. Third-party trademarks belong to their respective owners.
Installation
- Measure the finished cable O.D.
- Check the mounting location and clearance.
- Prepare and deburr the opening.
- Install the gland with the washers and locknut.
- Route the cable and tighten the compression cap.
- Check final cable support and routing.
