Overview

The ABB SCG-0381 is a precision-engineered stainless steel non-armoured cable gland designed for secure cable entry in industrial control panels, junction boxes, and equipment enclosures. Constructed from durable 304/316 stainless steel, this gland provides superior corrosion resistance in moist, humid, or mildly corrosive environments while maintaining mechanical integrity under vibration and mechanical stress. The gland features a 3/8" NPT threaded entry with a 11.5mm thread length, ensuring reliable engagement with standard conduit systems and enclosure ports. It accommodates cable diameters from 2mm to 6mm, providing a tight, strain-relieving clamp that prevents pull-out and maintains IP sealing integrity. The SCG series from ABB Installation Products is optimized for applications requiring environmental sealing without the need for armour protection, such as control wiring, sensor connections, and low-voltage signal cabling. Its compact design and stainless steel construction make it ideal for use in food processing, pharmaceutical, marine, and outdoor industrial installations where hygiene, durability, and resistance to corrosion are critical. The gland’s simple two-piece design allows for tool-free installation using standard hex tools, reducing assembly time while ensuring consistent performance across repeated installations. With a clamping range of 2-6mm, it supports a wide variety of flexible and semi-rigid cables, including PVC-insulated and rubber-jacketed conductors. The SCG-0381 is part of ABB’s SCG series, a trusted line of cable glands known for consistent quality and compatibility with global industrial standards. This model is specified for use in applications where a non-armoured gland is required to maintain ingress protection while providing secure cable retention in dynamic or high-vibration environments.
