  • Cable gland with nut and seal | PG11 | for cable Ø5–10 mm | black | IP68 | ES-PG11B

    Code: ES-PG11B

    Black cable gland with a PG11 thread, compression nut and seal. It seals one round cable with an outer diameter of 5–10 mm – installation power cables, typically 3×1.5–3×2.5 mm² (socket circuits, heaters, pumps). Protection IP68 (EN 60529), thread length 9 mm.

  • Cable gland with nut and seal | PG11 | for cable Ø5–10 mm | black | IP68 | ES-PG11B

    ES-PG11B is a black cable gland with a PG11 thread, compression nut and seal. It is screwed into a PG11 hole in an enclosure or panel, tightened by hand and finished with a spanner. The seal grips one round cable with an outer diameter of 5–10 mm and closes the gap between the cable and the enclosure.

    Key point:
    PG11 is the typical size for installation power cables: the Ø5–10 mm range covers most 3×1.5–3×2.5 mm² cables, with an 18.6 mm thread outer diameter. The black version is often chosen for dark enclosures, machines and equipment.

    How it works

    Installation. With the power off, the gland is screwed into the PG11 hole, then the cable is passed through the loosened nut and seal.

    Operation. The nut is tightened by hand and finished with a spanner – the seal is compressed evenly around the Ø5–10 mm cable sheath and holds the cable at the same time.

    Result. A sealed IP68 entry (EN 60529): dust-tight and intended for continuous immersion – the exact IP68 test conditions (depth and duration) are defined by the manufacturer.

    Why choose ES-PG11B?
    One size seals the most common installation power cables with IP68 – from outdoor socket circuits to pumps and heaters.

    Main functions

    • IP68 sealing – protection against dust and continuous immersion (EN 60529).
    • PG11 thread – thread outer diameter 18.6 mm, thread length 9 mm.
    • Range Ø5–10 mm – installation power cables, typically 3×1.5–3×2.5 mm² (socket circuits, heaters, pumps).
    • Nut with seal – seals and holds the cable, reducing pull on the terminals.
    • Simple tightening – by hand, finished with a spanner, no special tools.
    • Black colour – matches dark enclosures, machines and equipment.

    Where is it used?

    • Outdoor socket outlet and switch boxes
    • Connections of pumps, compressors and small motors
    • Connection boxes for electric heaters and water heaters
    • Boards in outbuildings and garages
    • Distribution boxes in damp production areas
    • Control boxes in wells and pumping stations
    • Power entries in machine housings

    Use by need

    For electricians.
    3×1.5 and 3×2.5 mm² cables are everyday work; the Ø5–10 mm range covers most of them without extra inserts.
    For designers.
    It is enough to specify PG11, Ø5–10 mm and IP68 – the grey IP68 series 00834 has the same thread and range.
    For site managers.
    In pumping stations, basements and outbuildings, IP68 entries reduce the risk of moisture getting into the boxes.

    Practical application

    If you are installing an outdoor socket box in an outbuilding and the supply comes in on a 3×2.5 mm² cable with a measured outer diameter of 9 mm, ES-PG11B is the right choice: the cable sits within the Ø5–10 mm range, and once the nut is tightened by hand and finished with a spanner the entry stays sealed even in a damp environment.

    Pros

    • IP68 to EN 60529 – higher protection than the IP67 series
    • Clear Ø5–10 mm range for one PG11 size
    • The nut seals and holds the cable at the same time
    • Tightened by hand and spanner – quick installation
    • CE, SGS, RoHS – according to supplier data
    • The same size is also available in grey – ES-PG11

    Cons / limitations

    • Limited range: for a cable thinner than 5 mm choose ES-PG9B (PG9, Ø4–8 mm), for one thicker than 10 mm – ES-PG13.5B (PG13.5, Ø6–12 mm).
    • One gland – one round cable; not suitable for flat cables or several wires.
    • Thread length 9 mm – may not be enough for a thick enclosure wall (especially with a locknut).
    • Material and operating temperature are not stated in our data – for special conditions (heat, chemicals, direct sunlight) confirm the parameters before ordering.
    • Not a fire barrier – does not replace cable penetrations through fire-rated walls.

    Safety and installation notes

    • Work in the panel or box only with the power off and absence of voltage verified.
    • After drilling or threading remove all swarf from the enclosure – it can cause a short circuit.
    • Drill a plain hole to the thread outer diameter of 18.6 mm – sealing is not ensured in an oversize hole.
    • Tighten the nut by hand, then with a spanner until the cable no longer moves in the seal; overtightening can damage the thread or seal.
    • Run the cable from below or with a drip loop so that water does not run along the cable to the entry.

    Quick selection guide

    PG11 thread (Ø 18.6 mm)
    Cable Ø5–10 mm
    IP68, thread length 9 mm
    Black – ES-PG11B
    Suitable when you need:
    • to seal one round cable Ø5–10 mm
    • an IP68 entry where flooding or long-term moisture is possible
    • the entry to match a dark enclosure or machine
    Check before use:
    • The cable outer diameter with a caliper – it must be 5–10 mm.
    • The hole: threaded PG11 or a plain Ø 18.6 mm hole (a locknut is then needed – check what is supplied) and whether the 9 mm thread is enough for the wall.
    • Operating conditions: material, operating temperature and IP68 immersion depth are not stated in our data.
    Important reminder: The gland seals and holds one cable, but it is not a fire barrier and does not replace the sealing of cable penetrations through fire-rated walls.

    FAQ

    Is ES-PG11B suitable for a 3×2.5 mm² cable?
    Usually yes, if the measured outer diameter of the cable is 5–10 mm – the sheath diameter counts, not the conductor cross-section.
    What should I use for a 5-core cable?
    If its outer diameter exceeds 10 mm, choose ES-PG13.5B (PG13.5, Ø6–12 mm).
    What is the difference between ES-PG11B and ES-PG11?
    Only the colour: ES-PG11B is black, ES-PG11 is grey; thread, range and IP68 are the same, UV resistance is not stated, so choose the colour to suit the enclosure.
    Can PG-11 / PG-11B be used instead of ES-PG11B?
    Yes, where IP67 is enough and the cable fits the Ø5–10 mm range; where the entry may be under water for a long time, stay with IP68 – ES-PG11B or the grey 00834 (same size and range).
    What hole size is needed in the enclosure?
    For a threaded hole – a PG11 thread; a plain hole to the thread outer diameter of 18.6 mm, secured from inside with a locknut.
    Can two wires be passed through one gland?
    No – the seal only seals one round cable; use a separate gland for each cable.
