Alpha Wire MES20 NC080 is a metallic cable gland designed for the FIT Wire Management Series, offering secure cable entry and strain relief in industrial, automation, and electrical installations. This product is suitable for M20 threaded interfaces and accommodates cables with diameters ranging from 6 mm to 12 mm. Its IP66 and IP68 ingress protection makes it highly resistant to dust and water, supporting operational integrity in demanding environments.

The gland features a robust construction: a nickel-plated brass body and cap for corrosion resistance and longevity, a chloroprene rubber seal to protect against environmental ingress, a polyamide-6 clamping insert for reliable cable retention under vibration, and an NBR O-ring that provides added sealing against fluids and contaminants. The product is rated IP68 up to 5 bar for 30 minutes, enabling safe, short-term submerged operation. Its plastic parts comply with V-2 criteria under the UL94 flammability test, confirming its resistance to ignition and spread of fire.

This cable gland meets the UL 514 standard for electrical fittings, and its temperature operating window covers -40°C to 150°C, tolerating brief exposures up to the maximum. Typical application areas include industrial control panels, factory machinery junction boxes, robotics cable routing, and sensor/actuator wiring termination points. The inclusion of a locknut and multipack supply makes installation efficient for large-scale wiring projects.

For automation or industrial users, this gland ensures long-lasting protection against cable pull-out and maintains a tight seal against dust, mechanical shock, and water ingress. It is widely applied in the manufacturing, water treatment, HVAC, and commercial automation sectors.
