Overview

The Mencom Corporation PCG-1/2XS-212PA is a 0.5-NPT threaded plastic cable gland engineered for secure cable entry and integrated strain relief in industrial settings. This model features a flexible strain relief mechanism designed to absorb bending stress and protect cables from mechanical damage, ensuring long-term cable integrity. It provides IP68 ingress protection, offering robust defense against dust ingress and immersion in water. Constructed from gray polyamide, the gland exhibits excellent resistance to corrosion and UV exposure, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications, including harsh environments. The PCG-1/2XS-212PA accommodates cable diameters ranging from 0.197 to 0.354 inches. A lock nut is included for secure and stable mounting.
