Long Thread Sealed Type Glands Selection Guide: Technical Criteria & Application Standards
Long Thread Sealed Type Glands selection guide: technical parameters, mounting and compliance standards, and Ortaç comparison.
A long-thread watertight gland is a polyamide cable gland whose mounting thread is longer than the standard model and which seals the entry by clamping the cable with its gasket. It is used in thick-walled plastic boxes, cast housings and entries where a washer, gasket and nut are added behind the sheet metal, when the length of the standard thread is not enough. Ortaç long-thread glands are offered in gray and black, in metric sizes such as M 12, M 20 and M 40 and PG sizes such as PG 9, PG 13.5 and PG 21. Choose a long-thread gland by thread type and size, by whether the thread length covers the wall thickness plus the nut height, by the clamping range that fits the cable outer diameter, and by color. Because the thread length is not given in the product name, take the millimeter value from the manufacturer table. The long thread only changes the length of the mounting thread; it is not a solution for a thicker cable, as the cable diameter is still limited by the clamping range. The Long Thread Sealed Type Glands category on Welibaba includes 28 active models from leading manufacturers such as Ortaç.
Key Technical Parameters for Selecting Long Thread Sealed Type Glands
To specify the right Long Thread Sealed Type Glands model for your panel or installation, verify the following parameters against your engineering schedule:
| Parameter | Typical Catalog Values | Verification Note |
|---|---|---|
| Connection Thread | Metrik (EN 60423), PG (DIN 40430) | Verify against project schedule and load calculation |
| Seal Material | TPV | Verify against project schedule and load calculation |
| Thread Length | 15 mm, 18 mm | Verify against project schedule and load calculation |
| Wrench Size | 15 mm, 19 mm, 22 mm, 24 mm | 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 Cable Glands.
- 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 Straight Type Glands, EMC Type Grounded Nickel-Plated Brass Glands, Sealed Type Glands with Reducer.
