Metal Gland Selection Guide for Buyers
1.Material choice - Nickel‑plated brass: cost‑effective for general industrial indoor & outdoor non‑marine projects.
-304 stainless steel: good rust‑proof for normal outdoor environments.
-316 stainless steel: recommended for marine, offshore, saltwater and chemical‑plant anti‑corrosion requirements.
2. Thread standard
-M‑thread (metric): widely used in Europe, Asia and new‑generation electrical cabinets.
-PG‑thread: traditional German standard, mainly for legacy old‑model enclosures.
3. Cable diameter matching Check the “Cable Range”column in our size table; select a gland whose range fully covers your outer cable diameter. Do not pick a size close to limit for long‑term vibration scenarios.
4. Installation note Metal glands require controlled tightening torque; over‑torque may crack internal sealing components.

FAQ
❓ Can these glands be reused?
→ Yes! The threaded design allows for repositioning or reuse if undamaged.
❓ When should I choose 316ss metal cable glands instead of brass?
→ 316 stainless steel contains molybdenum. Pick 316 SS for offshore/marine, salt‑spray coastal sites or chemical‑plant exposure; brass works well for ordinary industrial scenarios to save costs.
❓ Can metal cable glands be used for high‑vibration motor equipment?
→ Yes. Our metal glands feature reinforced claw‑type strain‑relief. Proper tightening prevents cable pull‑out under continuous vibration.
❓ What’s the difference between 304 and 316 stainless steel?
→ 316 SS has higher molybdenum content for extreme corrosion resistance (e.g., marine/chemical plants).
