General
Colour	Black

The Ses-Sterling Plio DK-PVC 10/18/22-3 black is a cable gland made of soft PVC, specifically developed for use in electrical and installation technology. It serves as a protective and guiding element for cables and lines when passing through wall or ceiling openings, particularly in conjunction with installation shafts, distribution boxes, or other components. The gland is black and enables a clean, mechanically protected routing of cables, while also providing a certain degree of movement freedom and flexibility. The designation DK-PVC 10/18/22-3 refers to the specific dimensions and construction of the gland, designed for secure fit in standard installation scenarios.

Applications
The cable gland is used in electrical installations and building technology applications where cables or lines must be routed through components. It is particularly suitable for indoor use, where mechanical protection for cables is necessary to prevent damage from friction, pressure, or mechanical stress. The gland can be used in conjunction with cable protection conduits, distribution boxes, or other installation elements to ensure proper and safety-compliant routing. Typical use cases include new construction and renovation projects, as well as the installation of power and low-voltage systems.

Functions and Equipment in Detail
The gland is made of soft PVC, a flexible and dimensionally stable plastic that offers high mechanical load capacity and good sliding properties. The black color is standard and blends visually into most installation environments. The DK-PVC 10/18/22-3 design features a continuous cylindrical shape that can be inserted into an opening in a component. The gland is designed for easy installation and requires no additional tools or fastening elements.

Technology Explained Simply
Soft PVC is a thermoplastic material widely used in electrical installations due to its flexibility and resistance to mechanical stress. The gland utilizes these material properties to provide durable yet flexible cable guidance. The shape of the gland ensures that cables are not damaged by sharp edges or narrow openings. Installation is done by simply inserting the gland into the designated opening, with the elastic nature of the material ensuring a secure fit.

Compatibility and Accessories
The gland is designed for use with standard installation components such as distribution boxes, cable protection conduits, or wall penetration fittings. It is used in conjunction with cables and lines that need to pass through components. Exact compatibility depends on the dimensions of the opening, defined by the designation 10/18/22-3. The gland is used as a single unit without additional fastening elements.

Installation and Mounting
Mounting is done by simply inserting the gland into the designated opening in a component. The elastic form of the soft PVC allows for a secure fit without requiring additional tools or fastening materials. The gland is positioned to safely guide cables or lines and protect them from mechanical damage. Installation typically occurs during electrical work when cables are routed through walls, ceilings, or other components.

Operational Advantages
Using the gland provides mechanical protection for cables, extending the lifespan of the lines and increasing installation safety. The flexible form of soft PVC allows for easy installation and a secure fit in the opening. The black color enables visually unobtrusive integration into the installation. The gland requires no additional tools or fastening elements, reducing installation time and simplifying workflows. It is suitable for indoor use and provides a reliable solution for cable routing in electrical installations.

The packaging unit contains 100 pieces, suitable for larger installations or projects. The weight specification of 2.5 g per piece is technically relevant for transportation and storage considerations, but not decisive for the gland’s functionality. The EAN number 3597470001844 serves product identification in trade, but is not part of the technical function description.
