The Unicrimp Q-Crimp 20mm indoor cable gland pack is an essential kit for electricians and DIY enthusiasts working with Single Wire Armour (SWA) cabling who require secure termination and mechanical retention. It provides a robust solution for ensuring electrical continuity and cable protection, though it is specifically rated for indoor environments and should not be used for exterior applications without additional weatherproofing.

No, these glands are specifically designed for indoor use.
Yes, the pack contains two of each component, including glands, locknuts, earth tags, and shrouds.
These glands are specifically designed for use with Single Wire Armour (SWA) cable.
The glands are manufactured from brass, which is a durable, conductive metal.
The shroud covers the gland assembly to provide a clean, professional finish and adds an extra layer of protection against dust and minor debris.
Verify that the enclosure uses standard 20mm entry holes and that no burrs or paint buildup are obstructing the fit.
Check that the armour wires are properly splayed and gripped by the internal cone of the gland and ensure the earth tag is making direct metal-to-metal contact.
To install, strip the SWA cable to the appropriate length, expose the armour wires, and slide the shroud onto the cable before assembly. Fit the gland body through the enclosure's knockout, secure it with the locknut, and terminate the armour wires within the gland mechanism according to local wiring regulations. Ensure the earth tag is positioned correctly between the gland and the enclosure to maintain an effective path to earth. These brass components are corrosion-resistant for indoor conditions, but they should be kept clean and free of heavy moisture or corrosive dust. Regularly inspect the tightness of the locknuts during routine maintenance to ensure vibrations have not loosened the connection.
