General
Colour	Black

The Plioprene DK-TPE 7/10/14-3 black from Ses-Sterling are cable glands made of thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), specifically developed for use in electrical and IT installations. These rubber glands provide secure and tight guidance of cables and wires through drill holes in wall or ceiling constructions. The glands are available in black and enable a clean, professional cable installation, while simultaneously offering mechanical protection and a certain sealing effect. The designation DK-TPE 7/10/14-3 describes the specific dimensions and design of the glands, suitable for various hole sizes.

Applications
The glands are intended for use indoors, where flexible yet stable cable routing is required. They are particularly suitable for installations in drywall constructions, such as plasterboard walls or ceilings, where cables must be routed through drill holes. The TPE material composition ensures high flexibility and elasticity, allowing the glands to be easily inserted into the hole and achieve a secure fit.

Functions and Features in Detail
The cable glands are designed as continuous sleeves that elastically adapt to the shape of the hole. The designation 7/10/14-3 refers to the compatible hole diameters: 7 mm, 10 mm, and 14 mm, with each gland designed for its respective hole size. The number 3 in the name describes the specific design, ensuring optimal fit and sealing performance. The glands are black, making them visually inconspicuous and well-integrated in most installation scenarios. The TPE material ensures high abrasion resistance and long service life under normal operating conditions.

Technology Explained Simply
TPE stands for Thermoplastic Elastomer, a plastic that combines the properties of thermoplastics (such as meltability when heated) with the elasticity of rubber. This material allows the glands to be easily deformed, enabling them to be pressed into the hole without tearing or breaking. The elastic recovery force ensures that after installation, the glands create a tight, secure fit that protects the cable from mechanical stress. The glands are not self-cutting; they must be inserted into the hole, which must be drilled precisely to the specified size (7, 10, or 14 mm).

Compatibility and Accessories
The glands are designed for use with cables and wires that fit into the corresponding hole sizes. The glands are not combined with additional components such as cable glands, cable ties, or seals.

Installation and Mounting
Installation is performed by simply inserting the glands into the prepared hole. The hole must be drilled precisely to the specified size (7, 10, or 14 mm) to ensure optimal fit. The glands are inserted with the open side into the hole and positioned by gentle pressure or rotation. The elastic shape ensures that the glands adapt to the hole and provide tight cable guidance. No tools or additional mounting aids are required. The glands are supplied in a pack of 100, which is sufficient for larger installations.

Operational Advantages
The cable glands made of TPE offer a reliable and durable solution for cable routing indoors. The high elasticity and abrasion resistance of the material ensure long service life, even under mechanical stress. The simple installation without tools reduces labor effort and speeds up the installation process. The black-colored glands are visually inconspicuous and blend well into most installation environments.
