Gland Gaskets Selection Guide: Technical Criteria & Application Standards
Gland Gaskets selection guide: technical parameters, mounting and compliance standards, and Ortaç comparison.
A gland gasket is the elastic part that wraps the cable inside the body of the cable gland and seals the entry when the clamping head is tightened; the products in this group are multi-hole multi gaskets that let more than one cable pass through a single gland. They are used at enclosure and device entries where thin cables such as sensor, signal and control cables must be passed through the same enclosure hole. Ortaç gaskets are named by common body sizes such as PG 9 - M 16 K, PG 11 - M 16, PG 16 - M 20, PG 21 - M 25 and PG 36 - M 40. Choose a multi gasket by the body size of the gland, the number of holes, and whether the diameter of each hole matches the cable diameter to be passed through. Because more than one model in the same body size is listed under the same name, match the number of holes and the hole diameter with the manufacturer table using the code on the product page. The size in the product name refers to the polyamide gland body, and the equivalent for brass glands may be different. A multi-hole gasket is not the same part as the gland's standard single-hole gasket; if the empty holes are not closed, the entry loses its sealing. The Gland Gaskets category on Welibaba includes 20 active models from leading manufacturers such as Ortaç.
Key Technical Parameters for Selecting Gland Gaskets
To specify the right Gland Gaskets model for your panel or installation, verify the following parameters against your engineering schedule:
| Parameter | Typical Catalog Values | Verification Note |
|---|---|---|
| Cable Gland Thread Type | PG 11 - Metrik 16, PG 13, 5 - Metrik 20 K, PG 16 - Metrik 20 | Verify against project schedule and load calculation |
Installation, Compatibility, and Commissioning Checklist
- Electrical & Mechanical Matching: Confirm that rated voltage, current capacity, and mounting dimensions align with the upstream and downstream components in Gland Accessories.
- Environmental & Enclosure Rating: Check IP protection class, housing material, and terminal capacity for dusty, humid, or high-vibration industrial environments.
- Related Product Groups: If your application calls for a different form factor or rating, compare sibling categories such as Blind Plugs, Gland O-Ring Gaskets, Gland Plugs.
