Selection checks
Choose the right size and construction
Measure the cable diameter and identify the enclosure thread. These details determine which gland will fit.
- Cable construction and sizeMatch the cable type and outside diameter to the marine gland size.
- Entry and enclosure drawingCheck whether the gland uses a threaded or weld-on mount, along with the entry and body dimensions.
- Project or classification referenceUse the vessel or project specification to identify any required classification documents.

Marine Cable Glands FAQ
Cable gland questions
Find answers about fit, assembly and product differences.
Marine Cable Glands
01How do I match a marine gland to an existing entry?
Use the full series marking and the entry drawing. Compare thread size, cable range, body length and mounting dimensions; a similar-looking gland may use a different dimensional series.
02Does the marine product name establish vessel approval?
No. Vessel or classification requirements must be checked against the documents for the selected gland. Include the required standard or classification reference with your enquiry.
JIS-Style Threaded Marine Cable Gland
JIS-Style Threaded Marine Cable Gland
01Does “JIS-style” identify one universal thread size?
No. The model table specifies the actual thread and cable range. The dimensional-series name does not replace the full entry designation.
02How does it differ from the TH stuffing box?
This construction mounts through a threaded entry. The TH construction has a weld-on body, so the two require different mounting arrangements.
TJ Metric Marine Cable Gland for Indoor Wiring
TJ Metric Marine Cable Gland for Indoor Wiring
01Is TJ intended for an exposed deck installation?
TJ is intended for indoor or sheltered marine use with an IP54 assembly. Exposed-deck conditions need a product and sealing arrangement matched to that exposure.
02How does TJ differ from the PF/G marine gland?
TJ uses a Metric entry, while the other threaded marine series uses PF/G as its standard form. Match the actual enclosure thread as well as the cable range.
TH-Series Weld-On Stuffing Box
TH-Series Weld-On Stuffing Box
01Is the Metric thread the enclosure-mounting connection?
No. On this TH construction, the Metric designation refers to the cap nut. The body uses a weld-on mounting arrangement.
02Can TH replace a threaded TJ gland in the same opening?
Not without changing the mounting arrangement. TH needs the weld-on body and mounting preparation shown for that construction.
