Gland O-Ring Gaskets Selection Guide: Technical Criteria & Application Standards
Gland O-Ring Gaskets selection guide: technical parameters, mounting and compliance standards, and Ortaç comparison.
A gland O-ring gasket is a ring gasket with a circular cross-section that is fitted on the threaded neck of a cable gland or blind plug and closes the gap between the body and the enclosure surface. Since the gland's inner gasket seals around the cable and the O-ring seals the thread root, it is used at enclosure and box entries where high IP protection is targeted. In this group, Ortaç O-rings, which are supplied separately and not fitted to the gland, are named by gland sizes such as PG 9, PG 13.5, PG 21 and PG 36. Choose the O-ring by the thread type and size of the gland, by whether the inner diameter and cross-section thickness seat in the thread root, and by a material that withstands factors in the environment such as temperature and oil. In some product names the PG or M value may be written differently from the standard thread size of the gland; before ordering, verify the size in the product name against the inner diameter and cross-section thickness in the manufacturer table. The O-ring does not replace the gasket that clamps the cable inside the gland; one seals the thread root and the other seals around the cable. The Gland O-Ring Gaskets category on Welibaba includes 10 active models from leading manufacturers such as Ortaç.
Key Technical Parameters for Selecting Gland O-Ring Gaskets
To specify the right Gland O-Ring 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 | Metrik 24, PG 10, PG 13, 5 - Metrik 19 | 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 Gaskets, Gland Plugs.
