Product Description
Cable gland hood
A Cable gland hood is a device designed to attach and secure the end of an electrical cable to the equipment. The Gland provides strain relief and can include a provision for making a connection to the armor, braid, lead or aluminum sheath of the cable. The gland is good handling in use with different types of cable whether plastic, rubber, metal or any other. The offered Cable gland hood is very efficient and safe for use.
