Streamline Cable Routing with Right-Angle Precision
Imagine routing cables cleanly at a perfect 90-degree angle through walls or panels without the hassle of bulky adapters or exposed wiring. The RA-2 model excels in tight spaces, hugging surfaces to minimize interference with foot traffic, machinery, or adjacent cables. Its low-profile design is a game-changer for industrial setups, marine applications, and outdoor enclosures where space and reliability matter most.
Key Advantages for Demanding Environments
Superior Protection: Achieves an IP65 rating, shielding cables from dust, water jets, and harsh weather—ideal for wet areas or exposed installations.
Gentle on Cables: Sculpted nylon construction with radiused bends prevents kinking or abrasion, extending cable life in high-vibration scenarios.
Versatile Fit: Handles cable diameters from 0.27 to 0.35 inches, perfect for power cords, data lines, or sensor wiring in automation systems.
Compact Footprint: Measures just 3.23 x 2.44 x 0.95 inches, blending seamlessly into enclosures without adding bulk.
Effortless Installation in Minutes
Setting up the RA-2 requires no specialized tools or connectors on the cable end. Follow these straightforward steps for a secure, watertight seal:
Slide the silicone compression rings onto the cable.
Mount the base plate using the included waterproof gasket—drill a precise hole matching the base size.
Route the cable through at 90 degrees, then snap on the sealing end cap and tighten for compression.
Test the seal by applying pressure; it holds firm without leaks.
Pro Tip: Pre-measure your cable diameter to confirm fit, and avoid sharp bends before insertion to maintain signal integrity. This fitting shines in retrofit projects where modifying existing panels is a must.
Choose the Right Fit for Your Cables
The RA series offers three sizes to match various cable thicknesses. Here’s a quick overview to help you select:
Model
Cable Diameter Range (Inches)
Dimensions (Inches)
RA-1
0.10 – 0.25
2.17 x 1.65 x 0.63
RA-2
0.27 – 0.35
3.23 x 2.44 x 0.95
RA-3
0.39 – 0.47
3.23 x 2.44 x 0.95
Opt for RA-2 when dealing with medium-gauge cables common in control panels or LED lighting runs. It’s the sweet spot for most professional installs balancing size and strength.
Real-World Applications That Deliver Results
Engineers and technicians rely on this fitting for:
Control cabinets in factories, keeping wiring organized and protected from coolant splashes.
Marine consoles, routing helm wiring through bulkheads without compromising watertight integrity.
Outdoor kiosks and traffic systems, enduring rain, UV, and temperature swings.
Solar inverters and HVAC units, enabling clean side-entry cable paths.
Unlike traditional straight glands, the right-angle entry reduces strain relief needs and improves airflow around enclosures.
