Armoured and Unarmoured Cable Glands Supplier
Product Introduction
When an electrical cable passes through a panel, enclosure, junction box or piece of equipment, the entry point needs to be properly managed. Armoured & Unarmoured Cable Glands provide a practical connection between the cable and the equipment while helping keep the cable firmly positioned. Sohum Industrial Sales Corporation supplies cable glands for different cable constructions and electrical applications. The product range covers solutions for both armoured and unarmoured cables, allowing customers to choose according to the actual cable design rather than using one gland type for every installation.
Armoured Cable Glands
Armoured cables contain an additional metallic layer that provides mechanical protection to the cable. The gland used with such cables needs to accommodate this construction correctly. Armoured Cable Glands are designed to provide a suitable termination arrangement for the cable sheath and armour. They are commonly used with power cables and industrial wiring where the cable requires a mechanically secure entry into electrical equipment. The gland size and construction should be selected by checking the cable’s outer diameter, armour dimensions and the entry thread of the equipment.
Unarmoured Cable Glands
Unarmoured cables do not contain the metallic armour found in armoured cable constructions. Consequently, the gland design used for these cables is different. Unarmoured Cable Glands provide a suitable entry arrangement around the cable sheath and help hold the cable in position at the enclosure. They are used in control panels, junction boxes, instrumentation systems, machinery and other suitable electrical applications.

Armoured vs Unarmoured Cable Glands
Although both products perform the basic function of managing cable entry, their construction and selection requirements are different.
Point of Comparison | Armoured Cable Glands | Unarmoured Cable Glands |
Cable Type | Cables with metallic armour | Cables without metallic armour |
Termination Requirement | Accommodates cable armour | Focuses on cable sheath |
Typical Use | Power and industrial cable installations | Control, instrumentation and general electrical wiring |
Selection Basis | Cable diameter, armour details and thread | Cable diameter and thread |
Construction | Designed for armoured cable termination | Designed for non-armoured cable entry |
The correct gland should be chosen after checking the actual cable construction and manufacturer’s dimensions.
Material and Finish Options
Cable glands can be supplied in materials appropriate to the installation. Brass is a popular choice for many industrial cable-entry applications because of its strength and suitability for precision-machined components.
Depending on the project, other material or surface-finish requirements may also be considered. Environmental exposure, installation location and equipment specifications should be reviewed before making the final selection.

Where These Cable Glands Are Used
Armoured and unarmoured cable glands can be found in many types of electrical infrastructure, including:
- Electrical panels
- Motor control centres
- Switchboards
- Junction boxes
- Industrial machinery
- Power distribution systems
- Control and automation panels
- Instrumentation installations
- Building electrical services
- Utility and infrastructure projects
Why Correct Gland Selection Matters
Cable glands are not interchangeable simply because they have similar dimensions. The cable’s construction determines the type of gland required.
For an armoured cable, the gland needs to accommodate the armour correctly. For an unarmoured cable, the gland should be appropriate for the cable sheath and its dimensions. Using the correct product helps create a cleaner and more secure cable termination.
