IP Cable Gland w/ conduit tubing clip ?

[Sierra2]

Kicking my self I didn't take a picture but then again I didn't think they would be hard to find!

 

So combine this:

 

.....with this:

 

I saw this 'cable gland/conduit adapter' on a junction box in the bow thruster engine room of an epic Dutch Barge while helping a friend who was doing some work on her.

 

She had spent time in Holland recently being cut and shut along with other work. Google's not been any help nor have any inquiry at electrical retailers in London. I'm wondering if this is something only (currently) available in Europe?

 

Would love to source some for the bilge pump wiring on my boat/project.

 

Any ideas??

Hi,

 

Apart from the black tube/ring it looks very similar to a hose pipe repair connector.

Try RS componants or Farnells or even Maplins looks like standerd flexi conduit connection to me

.....with this:

 

I bought some of these at a local electrical & light fixtures wholesale place when running some solar panel cables through the roof. I described what I was doing and the fellow brought these out. So simple, yet brilliant, they accept a variety of cable sizes within a range and the rubber seal expands when tightened to create a tight waterproof fit.

Hi Jim

 

I very aware of the benifit of cable glands but the one I'm trying to source has a outter ring to accept corrugated plastic conduit sleeving that adds protection to the cable.

Kopex glands?........the ones for the plastic flex conduit are normally sold as part of a kit consisting of so many glands plus 10m of flexible conduit Most of the big wholesaler chains have a version WF/Senate etc....available in 20mm or 25mm

 

eta...to the best of my knowledge none (including proper Kopex) are truly waterproof though

If I understand correctly, you are looking for a gland which seals to flexible conduit, rather than to a bare cable?

 

Googling suggests http://www.adaptaflex.com/products.asp?ID=51 or http://www.kopex.co.uk/product.asp?id=188 would do the trick.

Hi David

 

That doesn't look like the type I saw on the barge but fits the criteria for BSS, IP67 bilge level wiring (in this case four bilge pumps)

 

Many thanks for all help
