Overview

The ABB BCG-M201-L is a non-armoured cable gland engineered for secure cable entry in industrial electrical systems. Designed by ABB Installation Products, this gland features an M20x1.5 thread size with a 12mm thread length, providing a reliable mechanical and environmental seal for cables ranging from 5mm to 9mm in diameter. Constructed from nickel-plated brass, the BCG-M201-L delivers superior corrosion resistance and durability, making it ideal for harsh environments where moisture, dust, and corrosive elements are present. This cable gland is optimized for non-armoured cables, ensuring a tight clamp without damaging the cable jacket. The nickel plating enhances resistance to oxidation and extends service life compared to standard brass, while maintaining excellent electrical conductivity. The gland’s design includes a long thread length (12mm) for increased stability and pull-out resistance, critical in applications subject to vibration or mechanical stress. Key applications include control panels, machinery enclosures, junction boxes, and industrial automation systems where non-armoured cables are standard. The M20 thread size is a common standard in electrical enclosures, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of equipment. Installation is straightforward, requiring only standard tools for secure fastening. The BCG-M201-L is a cost-effective solution for terminating non-armoured cables while maintaining IP-rated protection against environmental ingress.
