Adaptors & Reducers

Cleveland Cable supply various Adaptors and Reducers for use on our cables. Cable adaptors and reducers are used to connect incompatible cable glands or threads to ensure secure and waterproof connections. Adaptors are used when the thread size of the cable gland is larger than or the same as the entry thread, while reducers are used when the thread size is smaller.

Cable Gland Adaptors:
These are used to adapt or convert the size or thread type of a cable entry point to accommodate different cable sizes or types. They essentially bridge the gap between incompatible threads, ensuring a tight and waterproof seal.
Cable Gland Reducers:
These are used when the cable gland thread is smaller than the enclosure's entry thread. Reducers allow you to use a cable gland with a smaller thread in an enclosure designed for a larger one, ensuring a secure and reliable connection.

Adaptors and reducers are important and are crucial for creating a secure and waterproof connection, especially in hazardous areas where maintaining the integrity of the enclosure is vital. They will also allow you to use different types of cable glands or entry devices in an enclosure that may have a specific thread type.

Adaptors and reducers help protect cables and wires from damage and ensure a reliable electrical connection.
