🔧 PigTail Cable Glands (Metric) – Flexible Cable Entry with Bend Protection
The PigTail cable glands are designed to protect flexible cables where sharp bends, movement, or vibration could otherwise cause wear or failure. Made from durable polyamide nylon, these plastic cable glands offer both strain relief and smart bend protection, making them ideal for dynamic industrial applications.
Each cable gland includes a spiral tail that guides the cable gently, reducing pressure on terminations and improving long-term reliability. They're suitable for use in enclosures, junction boxes, control panels, and other environments where cable support and protection are essential.
