Brass E1W Brass Glands
Heavy-Duty Glands for Armoured Cables
Brass E1W Brass Cable Glands are heavy-duty double compression cable glands designed for armoured cables used in hazardous and industrial environments. We are one of the leading manufacturers and exporters of Brass E1W Brass Cable Glands from India. We have been supplying Brass Cable Glands to the world market for many decades. Our E1W type glands are widely used for indoor and outdoor installations where superior mechanical retention, earth continuity, ingress protection, and flameproof safety are essential. Manufactured using high-grade Brass as per BS and IEC standards, our glands ensure strong armour clamping, environmental sealing, and long service life even under corrosive and high-vibration conditions. These glands are suitable for SWA (Steel Wire Armoured), Aluminium Wire Armoured (AWA), and plastic/lead sheathed cables.
Overview – Brass E1W Double Compression Cable Glands
Brass E1W Cable Glands are specifically designed for armoured cables with inner and outer sheath sealing. The “E” type indicates suitability for armoured cables, while “1W” denotes a weatherproof version for outdoor applications. These glands provide double compression—one at the armour and one at the inner sheath—ensuring high mechanical strength and environmental sealing.
Key functional advantages include:
-
Double compression for inner sheath and outer sheath sealing
-
Armour clamping and earth continuity
-
IP66 / IP67 ingress protection
-
Suitable for hazardous areas (with proper certification)
-
Weatherproof and corrosion-resistant
-
Flameproof enclosure compatibility
-
Vibration-resistant locking system
These glands are widely used in Oil & Gas, Petrochemical, Marine, Mining, Power Plants, Renewable Energy, Railways, and Heavy Engineering industries.
