How to Assemble and Install a WMG-PC14 Wire Mesh Grip

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for the proper assembly and installation of the WMG-PC14 wire mesh grip onto a cable or cord, ensuring secure strain relief.

Estimated time: 15m

Tools needed:

Flat nose pliers

Supplies needed:

Compression gland nut, Wire mesh grip, Bushing, Connector body, Cable or cord

  1. Prepare the Cord and Gland Nut

    Cut the end of the cord squarely. Slide the compression gland nut onto the cord.

  2. Install the Wire Mesh Grip onto the Cable

    Compress the wire mesh grip and then slide it onto the cable. If installing on cords of maximum diameter, slightly preform the wire mesh by carefully forming the loops round using flat nose pliers as shown in Figure 3 of the documentation.

  3. Slide the Bushing onto the Cord

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

  4. Secure the Connector Body

    Secure the connector body to the enclosure if you are using a threaded hub application. For knockout applications, the entire assembly can be completed before installing it into the enclosure.

  5. Insert the Cord Through the Body

    Insert the cord through the connector body until the desired working length of the conductors is achieved. Note that in some installations, the cord jacket may need to be stripped back to allow it to pass through the body.

  6. Position the Bushing

    Slide the bushing into the connector body, ensuring it is properly seated.

  7. Position the Wire Mesh

    Slide the wire mesh along the cord until it lays flat against the bushing.

  8. Tighten the Gland Nut

    Slide the compression gland nut along the mesh and tighten it securely onto the connector body. Remove any slack from the mesh by smoothing it out along the cord.
