The Helavia DA 160/220/15 black is a cable gland made of polychloroprene rubber, manufactured by Ses-Sterling, and is designed for the secure and tight guidance of cables or conduits through components such as enclosures, wall penetrations, or other installation elements. The gland is black in colour and is supplied in a pack of 100 pieces. It is specifically designed for use in electrical and installation technology, where reliable mechanical and electrical insulation, as well as impact- and weather-resistant sealing, are required.
Cable glands are shaped components used in electrical installations to guide cables through openings in metal or plastic enclosures. The Helavia DA 160/220/15 black is designed for a specific diameter class, with the designation DA 160/220/15 indicating the technical dimensions: the inner diameter is 160 mm, the outer diameter is 220 mm, and the length of the gland is 15 mm. These dimensions ensure a precise fit in standardised penetrations and guarantee a secure, tight connection without play or air gaps.
Polychloroprene rubber is a high-quality elastomer known for its high mechanical strength, weather resistance, and chemical resistance. It is particularly suitable for use in electrical and automation technology, where materials are exposed to high mechanical loads, temperature fluctuations, and environmental influences. The gland is therefore suitable for use in indoor and outdoor environments, especially in industrial or technical installations where long-term, maintenance-free operation is required.
The gland is supplied in a pack of 100 pieces, making it particularly cost-effective for large-scale installations or series assemblies. The weight of a single unit is 6.59 g, resulting in a total pack weight of 0.659 kg. These specifications are relevant for logistics, storage, and transport planning, especially for larger orders.
Compatibility and accessories include use in conjunction with various enclosure and panel constructions that feature standardised penetration openings. The gland is not specifically designed for a particular brand or product series, but universally fits the specified dimensions. It can therefore be used in various industries, including electrical installation, machine building, plant engineering, and automation technology.
Installation is carried out by simply inserting the gland into the designated opening. The elastic structure of the polychloroprene rubber ensures that the gland adapts to the shape of the opening and creates a tight, pressure-resistant connection. Additional fastening is generally not required, as the elastic tension is sufficient to hold the gland securely in place. The gland is not intended for use with cable glands or other fastening elements, but serves exclusively as a penetration component.
Operational advantages include high mechanical stability, long service life, and maintenance-free operation. The gland prevents dust, moisture, or foreign objects from entering the installation, thereby increasing the reliability and safety of the electrical system. The material selection also ensures high resistance to UV radiation, ozone, and atmospheric influences, enabling outdoor use. The black-coloured version is visually unobtrusive and blends in with most technical environments.
The Helavia DA 160/220/15 black is therefore a reliable and universally applicable component for cable penetration in technical installations. Its specific dimensions, high-quality material, and simple installation make it a standard solution in electrical and installation technology.
