The barrier cable glands used for hazardous areas & explosive atmospheres.

The main application for the barrier cable gland is petroleum refining and petrochemical industry, coal mine, oil field, natural gas chemical industry, gunpowder industry, chemical fiber industry, paint industry, fertilizer industry, various pharmaceutical industries.

Petroleum tankers and liquefied petroleum gas vehicles, airplanes, warehouses dealing inflammable and explosive products, electrolysis workshops, communication machine assembly workshops, and places requiring cable gland joints to be rust-proof, wear-resistant and anti-magnetic, etc.

What material should the barrier cable gland be made of?

The material of the barrier cable gland is nickel-plated brass and stainless steel. Because of the good thermal conductivity of brass and high-quality stainless steel and the characteristic of almost no carbon, the heat generated in a short time is absorbed and conducted when the joint and the object are rubbed or impacted.

Another reason is that brass and stainless steel are relatively soft and have good retreat during friction and impact, and it is not easy to produce tiny metal particles, so we can hardly see sparks, so we can achieve the explosion-proof effect.
