Description
PX2KX Barrier Cable Gland
The PX2KX barrier cable gland is an explosion-proof method of terminating all types of braided and tape-armored cables. Certified by ATEX for safe glanding of cables in Class I Zone 1, 21, and Zone 2, 22, hazardous areas, it utilizes a compound barrier-type flameproof seal and controlled outer load-retention seal.
This cable gland is manufactured to meet a wide array of standards, specifications, and codes. Examples include:

PX2KX cable glands feature metal-to-metal armor clamping mechanisms and robust sealing systems. Once a cable’s inner sheath or bedding has been removed, a RapidEx liquid resin barrier seals directly around the internal cable cores. As a result, the risk of coldflow on all cable types is eliminated. Other features include:
- Direct And Remote Installation
- Unique OSTG Prevents Overtightening
- Globally Marked, IECEx, ATEX, UL, And cCSAus
- EMC Tested
- Superior EMC Performance
