General
Colour	Black

The Ses-Sterling Plioprene DK-TPE 8/10/14-1 black is a cable gland made of thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), specifically designed for use in electrical and installation technology. This rubber gland serves for secure and tight cable or wire guidance through holes in enclosures, wall claddings, or other components. The gland is available in the colour black and is supplied in a package containing 100 pieces. The package weight is 0.056 kg, with each individual piece weighing 0.56 g. The gland is part of the product group TPE cable glands and is distributed under the manufacturer's number 01450033010.

Applications
The DK-TPE 8/10/14-1 is suitable for use in industrial and commercial electrical installations where reliable cable guidance with mechanical and electrical insulation is required. It is frequently used in enclosures, machine construction, plant engineering, or during the installation of control and regulation technology. The gland enables clean and orderly cable passage through holes, while simultaneously providing protection against mechanical damage, dust, and moisture. Use in installation technology is particularly advantageous due to its easy installation and high functionality.

Functions and Equipment in Detail
The cable gland is made of TPE material, known for its elasticity, weather resistance, and high mechanical load capacity. The material allows for elastic adaptation to the hole and ensures a tight fit, preventing dust or moisture ingress. The gland is through designed, meaning it provides continuous cable guidance without requiring additional connecting pieces or glands. The designation DK-TPE 8/10/14-1 refers to the compatible hole and cable diameters, with the gland designed for holes in the range of 8 to 14 mm. The precise fit ensures a secure and tight connection.

Technology Explained Simply
The TPE material (Thermoplastic Elastomer) combines rubber elasticity with thermoplastic properties, meaning the gland remains flexible but is also shape-stable when needed. This material is resistant to UV radiation, oil, fats, and many chemicals, extending the gland’s lifespan in demanding environments. The black colour is not only aesthetic but also functional, as it absorbs UV radiation better, thereby slowing down material aging. The gland is simply inserted into the hole and automatically adapts to the hole geometry due to its elasticity.

Compatibility and Accessories
The DK-TPE 8/10/14-1 is compatible with holes in the diameter range of 8 to 14 mm. It is designed for guiding cables and wires within this diameter range. The gland can be used in combination with other cable glands from the same product series to cover different hole sizes. There are no specific accessories directly associated with this gland, as it is designed as a single component for cable passage. Installation requires no additional mounting aids or tools.

Installation and Mounting
Mounting of the cable gland is done by simply inserting it into the prepared hole. The elastic structure of the TPE material ensures that the gland automatically adapts to the hole shape and provides a tight fit. No additional fastening or screwing is required. The gland can also be easily removed and replaced later, simplifying maintenance and servicing. Installation is tool-free and therefore quick and easy for electricians and technicians.

Advantages in Operation
The rubber gland provides reliable and tight cable guidance, protecting against mechanical damage, dust, and moisture. The high elasticity of the TPE material ensures long service life and stable fit, even under temperature fluctuations. Easy installation and maintenance reduce labour effort and installation time. The black colour ensures good visibility and is resistant to UV radiation, expanding its use in outdoor or sun-exposed environments. The gland is thus a reliable component for installation technology and offers a cost-efficient solution for cable passage.
