Gland Flat Washers

A gland flat washer is a flat gasket that is fitted on the threaded neck of the cable gland and forms a flat sealing surface between the gland body and the enclosure surface. It is used in sheet metal, plastic or cast enclosures to prevent dust and water from seeping in through the surface the gland sits on and to protect the surface during tightening. In this group, Ortaç washers are available in metric gland sizes such as M 12, M 20, M 32 and M 50 and PG gland sizes such as PG 7, PG 13.5, PG 21 and PG 48. Choose the washer by the thread type and size of the gland, by whether its inner diameter fits the thread and its outer diameter fits the seating surface of the gland, and by the resistance of its material to the ambient temperature. A flat washer is not a metal washer placed under a bolt, nor is it considered the same part as a round cross-section O-ring; which one is suitable is determined by the seating surface of the gland and the manufacturer data.
