I bought these a while ago to make an outdoor extension cord box with good moisture resistance. Recently they came in handy when I was installing a mini-split and wiring up the outdoor condenser to the indoor air unit. These worked perfect as a water tight pass through and strain relief to secure the power/communication wire passing through knockout on the outdoor unit.

I have been using these strain reliefs for many years only recently (past few year) found on Amazon. Previously used Heyco brand and feel the Arlington brand provides better longevity, grip and sealing. I particularly like being able to snug hand tight and the insert seals unlock before requiring a crescent wrench to snug it up. Also, the insert stays pliable I have never had to replace again, like before and using the same for over 7-years is saying something especially when they are used in an outside environment. Finding on Amazon I can add pricing for me, previously paying as much as $7.50 each in a lower quantity. Local electrical store charging me about $5.00 each at a quantity of 50 so getting 100 for the same price is a no brainer.

From the o-ring seal to the tightly adjusting aperture, this cable gland is top of the line. I used to it seal 0.25" OD shielded CAT5e entering a outdoor junction box and it worked flawlessly. Of course enter from the bottom of an enclosure where possible with a drip loop, but from the fit I'm confident this would create a waterproof seal at any orientation.

Who spends over an hour looking for high quality Cable Glands? Me, that's who! There is so much junk being sold as UL listed, liquid tight, etc. and they don't meet any of those requirements. These Cable Glands are UL listed, Liquid Tight and very high quality. The best available on Amazon. I use these for my Solar wiring into a waterproof junction box. 10 AWG PV Wire fits nicely. You could go as big as 2 gauge and as small as 18, maybe 20 gauge. A little pricey, but would you like to have water in your junction box? Me either. Spend a little extra and get QUALITY and peace of mind!

First off, let me thank those who went above and beyond in describing and measuring this in their reviews. That really helped. For me, I was looking for a non-metallic way to secure Romex 6/3 to a PVC box, and this (the 3/4" size)did the job very well. Not sure if anything thicker than that would fit through, but it worked for this application. A bit of a warning: opinions vary, but to make this whole assembly truly "non metallic" as per NEC, you should replace the metal nut with a plastic / nylon nut. Using this connector as such in a PVC box avoids all grounding requirements for the box, which makes assembly a whole lot easier, especially when you're wrestling with getting lots of #6 wires tucked into a box. Again, opinions vary on whether using the supplied metal nut would necessitate connecting to ground somehow, but your AHJ will be the only opinion which matters, so just play it safe and get the plastic nut.

Worked perfectly! Has an inner compression shroud that grips the cord and provides excellent cord strain relief. It will accommodate a large range of cord diameters. I used it with the . It is plastic/nylon but very durable grade and appears to also have water sealing properties (not sure if this is an official rating for it but it looks like it could). It has been in service now for 2 years without any issue. I would definitely buy again!5 stars!
