Introducing the CAPE Cable Gland with Constant Force Grounding


 
The world’s first non-metallic cable gland, patented and certified for use in extreme environments with armored or non-armored cable types. Get the performance of premium stainless steel cable glands, without the premium price.

Lower Costs


Compared to high-price stainless steel, brass and aluminum alternatives, CAPE cable glands result in 25-50% savings. They reduce overall installation time and project timelines, plus deliver significant saving on material costs and labor costs.

Simplify Design, Procurement and Installations

Unlike other cable glands that have multiple material, design and size complexities varying by application, CAPE simplifies the design and material to deliver a single solution to perform in both ordinary and extreme applications.

CAPE’s simple, yet high-performance, cable glands deliver accurate and time-efficient installs with less risk of lost components that void certified installations. With only 4 sizes to connect cables ranging from 0.125 inches to 1.25 inches O.D. – CAPE cable glands provide the most flexibility for designers and installers.

CAPE cable glands have the industry’s widest cable diameter range, eliminating time wasted by changing sizes should a cable in a different size arrive on the project site.

Lighten the Load


Metal cable glands are heavy. CAPE’s advanced polymer materials are not, which reduces weight on all applications. If it floats or flies, this means more payload capacity and less fuel consumption. For all projects, lighter weight means decreased shipping and logistic costs.
