FAQ
What torque should I use to ensure IP68 sealing?
Tighten by hand, then apply a wrench until the seal is compressed and no gap is visible. Do not overtighten to avoid cracking the enclosure; follow your panel’s torque guideline.
PG vs. metric cable glands?
PG uses the German Panzergewinde thread; metric follows ISO threads. Choose the type that matches your cutout and threaded boss.
