Lapp Group's BIGGEST Cable Gland Introduction Ever!

With Lapp Group's innovative, double lamella clamping design, the new SKINTOP® M75X1.5, M90X1.5 and M110X2.0 sizes make working with and securing large, heavy cables much easier. Lapp Group's extended range of metric, nickel plated brass SKINTOP® glands support cable diameters ranging from 2.087-3.858 inches (53-98mm). The three new SKINTOP® sizes feature a dual clamping design that provides twice the grip and sealing area of traditional gasket designs.

By adding support and clamping the cable at both the top and bottom of the gland, the weight of large cables is better supported and distributed, providing a secure hold with maximum stability and strain relief protection. The double clamping support perfectly stabilizes and holds large cables securely in place, eliminating problems of cable leverage due to the cable's weight. As a result, assembly is much easier and stability, reliability and strain relief is ensured.

SKINTOP BIG


In 1957, company founder Oskar Lapp developed OLFLEX®, the world's first industrially manufactured control cable. Today over 3,000 employees develop, produce and sell more than 40,000 products worldwide for the family-owned Lapp Group company. With 17 manufacturing sites, 39 company owned sales operations and more than 100 foreign representations, the Lapp Group is present in all key markets. Its portfolio includes cables, cable technology, spiral cables, industrial connectors, data cables, fiber optic cables and cable marking systems.

With the introduction of the SKINTOP® cable gland, Oskar Lapp revolutionized the cable gland industry. As the first cable gland to use concentric lamellar grip technology, SKINTOP® glands offer the highest degree of strain relief and protection, while providing great ease of use. This design continues to be the best in the industry with IP protection ratings as high as IP 69K. With a product offering that spans both polyamide and metallic options suitable for EMI and even explosive environments, it is possible to find a SKINTOP® cable gland for virtually any industrial application.

At the North American headquarters, the state-of-the-art production facility, UL certified test laboratory and highly skilled sales force gives the Lapp Group a competitive edge to help our customers achieve success.
