  • Cable gland with nut and seal | PG9 | for cable Ø4–8 mm | black | IP68 | ES-PG9B

    Code: ES-PG9B

    Black cable gland with a PG9 thread, compression nut and seal. It seals one round cable with an outer diameter of 4–8 mm – flexible cords and cables, typically 3×0.75–3×1.5 mm² (luminaires, fans, small pumps). Protection IP68 (EN 60529), thread length 8 mm.

  • Cable gland with nut and seal | PG9 | for cable Ø4–8 mm | black | IP68 | ES-PG9B

    ES-PG9B is a black cable gland with a PG9 thread, compression nut and seal. It is screwed into a PG9 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 4–8 mm and closes the gap between the cable and the enclosure.

    Key point:
    PG9 is one of the most common sizes for small supply cords: the Ø4–8 mm range covers most flexible 3-core cords, and the 15.2 mm thread outer diameter still fits on compact boxes. 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 PG9 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 Ø4–8 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-PG9B?
    One size covers most luminaire and small appliance cords, and IP68 allows it to be used where the entry may end up under water.

    Main functions

    • IP68 sealing – protection against dust and continuous immersion (EN 60529).
    • PG9 thread – thread outer diameter 15.2 mm, thread length 8 mm.
    • Range Ø4–8 mm – flexible cords and cables, typically 3×0.75–3×1.5 mm² (luminaires, fans, small 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?

    • Connections of outdoor and damp-room luminaires and floodlights
    • Supply entries for fans and small pumps
    • Outdoor distribution and junction boxes
    • Connection boxes for heating cables and thermostats
    • Control stations on machines and equipment
    • Boxes for fountains, pool equipment and drainage equipment
    • Temporary construction site installation boxes

    Use by need

    For electricians.
    One PG9 size is enough for most flexible 3×0.75–3×1.5 mm² cords – fewer sizes to carry in the van and on site.
    For lighting installers.
    In outdoor luminaire and floodlight boxes, an IP68 entry protects the connection against rain and flooding.
    For machine builders.
    The 15.2 mm thread outer diameter allows entries to be placed close together on a machine control box.

    Practical application

    If you are connecting a floodlight on a building facade and a flexible 3×1.0 mm² cord with a measured outer diameter of 7 mm enters the outdoor box, ES-PG9B will seal it: pass the cord through, tighten the nut by hand, finish with a spanner – and water will no longer get into the box through the entry.

    Pros

    • IP68 to EN 60529 – higher protection than the IP67 series
    • Clear Ø4–8 mm range for one PG9 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-PG9

    Cons / limitations

    • Limited range: for a cable thinner than 4 mm choose ES-PG7B (PG7, Ø3–6.5 mm), for one thicker than 8 mm – ES-PG11B (PG11, Ø5–10 mm).
    • One gland – one round cable; not suitable for flat cables or several wires.
    • Thread length 8 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 15.2 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

    PG9 thread (Ø 15.2 mm)
    Cable Ø4–8 mm
    IP68, thread length 8 mm
    Black – ES-PG9B
    Suitable when you need:
    • to seal one round cable Ø4–8 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 4–8 mm.
    • The hole: threaded PG9 or a plain Ø 15.2 mm hole (a locknut is then needed – check what is supplied) and whether the 8 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

    What cable size does ES-PG9B fit?
    A cable with an outer diameter of 4–8 mm; typically flexible 3×0.75–3×1.5 mm² cords, but the measured sheath diameter is what counts.
    What if the cable is thinner than 4 mm?
    Choose the smaller ES-PG7B (PG7, Ø3–6.5 mm) – an oversized gland will not seal a thin cable tightly.
    What is the difference between ES-PG9B and ES-PG9?
    Only the colour: ES-PG9B is black, ES-PG9 is grey; thread, range and IP68 are the same, UV resistance is not stated, so choose the colour to suit the enclosure.
    Can PG-09 / PG-09B be used instead of ES-PG9B?
    Yes, where IP67 is enough and the cable fits the Ø4–8 mm range; where the entry may be under water for a long time, stay with IP68 – ES-PG9B or the grey 00827 (same size and range).
    What hole size is needed in the enclosure?
    For a threaded hole – a PG9 thread; a plain hole to the thread outer diameter of 15.2 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.
