Overview

The ABB WMG-PC10 stainless steel wire mesh grip is a precision-engineered cable strain relief solution designed for secure cable entry in 1-inch cord fittings. Engineered for compatibility with cable diameters ranging from 0.875 to 0.985 inches, this grip provides a reliable connection with a defined grip range of 0.875 to 1.000 inches. The wire mesh is constructed from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, while the retaining ring is aluminum, offering a balance of durability and mechanical strength for industrial environments. This wire mesh grip is specifically designed for use with ABB’s ASG and MSG series cable glands, ensuring proper strain relief to prevent severe cord bends and pullouts. It is suitable for non-armored and portable cable types, making it ideal for general-purpose applications in machine building, maintenance, and repair operations. The product’s design allows for hand-tightened installation, delivering high mechanical pull-out performance without requiring specialized tools. The WMG-PC10 is a direct replacement or upgrade for applications requiring dependable wire mesh gripping solutions, particularly where vibration or tension could compromise cable integrity.

How to Assemble a WMG-PC10 Wire Mesh Grip Strain Relief Connector

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for assembling a WMG-PC10 wire mesh grip strain relief connector, ensuring proper cable securement and strain relief for cords with diameters between 0.875 and 1.000 inches.

Estimated time: 15m

Tools needed:

Wire cutters, Flat nose pliers, Wrench

Supplies needed:

WMG-PC10 Wire Mesh Grip Connector, Cable or Cord, Gland Nut, Bushing, Retaining Ring

  1. Disassemble Original Connector Components

    Remove the original retaining ring from the connector. Note that for WMG-PC10, a replacement gland nut is not supplied, so only the retaining ring needs to be removed.

  2. Prepare the Cord

    Cut the end of your cable or cord squarely. Slide the compression gland nut onto the cord, ensuring it is oriented correctly for later tightening.

  3. Install Wire Mesh Grip onto Cord

    Compress the wire mesh grip and slide it onto the cable. For cords at the maximum diameter, carefully preform the wire mesh loops using flat nose pliers to ensure they are round before sliding onto the cable.

  4. Slide Bushing onto Cord

    Slide the bushing component onto the cord, positioning it after the wire mesh grip.

  5. Secure Connector Body to Enclosure (if applicable)

    If using a threaded hub application, secure the main connector body to the enclosure. For knockout applications, the assembly can be completed before installing the connector to the enclosure.

  6. Insert Cord into Body

    Insert the prepared cord, with the gland nut, mesh, and bushing, through the connector body until the conductors reach the desired working length. In some installations, the cord jacket may need to be stripped back to pass through the body.

  7. Position Bushing and Mesh

    Slide the bushing fully into the connector body. Then, slide the wire mesh grip along the cord until it lays flat against the bushing.

  8. Tighten Gland Nut

    Slide the compression gland nut along the wire mesh grip and firmly tighten it onto the connector body using a wrench. Smooth out any slack from the mesh along the cord to ensure a secure fit and proper strain relief.
