Brass Wiping Glands

Brass Wiping Glands are heavy-duty cable glands specifically designed for the secure termination of Steel Wire Armoured (SWA) cables and plastic- or rubber-sheathed cables in medium-voltage (MV) and industrial applications. These glands provide excellent mechanical retention, armour bonding, earth continuity, and environmental sealing through the use of a wiping compound around the cable bedding. Manufactured from high-quality brass, they offer exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and long-term reliability in demanding operating environments.

Description

CERTA Brass Wiping Glands are engineered to provide safe and reliable cable termination for armoured cables used in medium-voltage power distribution systems and industrial installations. These cable glands are designed for use with Steel Wire Armoured (SWA) cables as well as plastic and rubber sheathed cables, ensuring secure cable retention and effective environmental sealing.

The gland utilizes a wiping compound sealing method, which forms a protective barrier around the cable bedding to prevent the ingress of dust, moisture, and contaminants. This design also ensures dependable earth continuity and mechanical protection, making Brass Wiping Glands suitable for critical electrical installations where safety and reliability are essential.

Manufactured from premium-quality brass and finished in natural brass, these glands provide excellent mechanical strength and resistance to corrosion, making them ideal for harsh industrial and infrastructure applications.

Designed in accordance with BS6121 Part 1:1989, CERTA Brass Wiping Glands deliver proven performance for medium voltage cable installations requiring robust sealing and cable protection.
