The Plioprene DK-TPE 10/12/16-3 black from Ses-Sterling are cable glands made of thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), specifically designed for use in electrical and installation technology. They serve as protection for cables and wires when passing through enclosures, wall penetrations or other components. The glands are available in black and provide a secure, durable and flexible seal, while also withstanding mechanical stress. The designation DK-TPE 10/12/16-3 refers to the precise fit for various hole or penetration diameters, where the numbers 10, 12 and 16 indicate the available hole sizes in millimetres. The glands are available in a pack of 100 pieces, with a weight of 0.71 g per piece.

Cable glands made of TPE offer an elastic and dimensionally stable seal that adapts to the geometry of the penetration. The TPE material composition ensures high flexibility combined with mechanical strength, making them suitable for use in industrial and commercial installations. The glands are intended for a wide range of installation scenarios, particularly where a durable, weather-resistant and easy-to-install solution is required. The black colour is standard and visually integrates well into most technical environments.

Technology explained clearly – The glands are made of thermoplastic elastomer, combining the advantages of rubber and plastic. TPE is flexible, resistant to mechanical stress and offers good chemical resistance. The glands are designed to be elastically pressed into the hole, ensuring a tight fit. The designation 10/12/16-3 indicates that the glands are suitable for holes with diameters of 10 mm, 12 mm and 16 mm, where the number 3 may refer to a specific design or product line within the DK series.

Compatibility and accessories – The glands are intended for use with cables and wires in electrical and electronic installations. They fit into holes with the specified diameters and are suitable for mounting in metal or plastic enclosures. The glands are to be understood as individual components, directly inserted into the hole.

Installation and mounting – Installation is performed by simply pressing the gland tip into the hole. The elastic shape of the TPE material ensures that the gland tip adapts to the hole and creates a tight seal. The glands are not self-cutting and must be inserted into a pre-drilled hole. No additional tool support is required, as the glands can be inserted manually. Installation is done without additional adhesives or screws.

Advantages in operation – The glands provide a reliable seal, protecting against dust, moisture and mechanical stress. The elastic nature of the TPE material allows for a long service life and high resistance to thermal and mechanical loads. The glands are easy to handle and require no special tools or mounting aids. The pack of 100 pieces enables economical use in larger installations or series mounting. The black colour ensures discreet integration into technical environments.
