Overview

Mencom MCGB-21 is a PG21 nickel-plated brass shielded gland designed for 0.512–0.708 inch shielded cables. It provides a reliable EMI/RFI shield termination by grounding the cable shield directly to the gland body, ensuring continuous electrical continuity and reducing electromagnetic interference in industrial control panels, automation systems, and machine tool wiring. The gland delivers IP68 ingress protection against dust and water immersion, making it suitable for washdown environments, outdoor enclosures, and harsh industrial applications. Its nickel-plated brass construction resists corrosion and wear, while the integrated strain relief prevents cable pull-out and mechanical stress on terminations. Compatible with standard PG21 entry systems, the MCGB-21 simplifies installation with a single-piece design that eliminates loose components and reduces assembly time. Ideal for use with Ethernet, Profibus, DeviceNet, and other industrial communication cables requiring EMI shielding and environmental sealing.
