Overview

ABB Installation Products FSCG-0501 is a non-armoured stainless steel cable gland designed for food and beverage processing environments. The gland features a 1/2 inch NPT thread size with a 10mm thread length, accommodating cable diameters from 6 to 12mm. Constructed from stainless steel, it provides corrosion resistance and durability in wet or chemically aggressive conditions typical of food and beverage facilities. This cable gland is engineered for installations where cable armour is not required, such as in control panels, junction boxes, or machinery enclosures. The 1/2 inch NPT thread ensures compatibility with standard industrial conduit systems, while the 6-12mm cable range covers common sensor and instrumentation cable sizes. The 10mm thread length provides secure mechanical engagement without excessive protrusion. Suitable for use in food and beverage processing, dairy, breweries, and packaging plants, this gland meets hygiene and safety standards for washdown environments. The stainless steel construction resists corrosion from cleaning agents and moisture, reducing maintenance and replacement costs. The gland’s design prevents cable pull-out and provides IP66/IP68 ingress protection when properly installed. Order using SKU FSCG-0501 from ABB Installation Products for reliable cable entry solutions in hygienic industrial applications.
