Product Information
Full details
The Lapp SKINTOP 54110843 is an EMC-compliant locknut designed for optimal 360-degree shield contact in cable management systems. It is ideal for professionals in automation, control cabinet manufacturing, and transport applications who require reliable electromagnetic interference (EMI) protection. A key benefit is its patented active EMC design that ensures optimal contact by cutting through insulating layers. However, it is an add-on component specifically for SKINTOP® ST-R M polyamide cable glands and requires proper installation for full effectiveness.

FAQs
What is the primary function of the Lapp SKINTOP 54110843?
Its primary function is to provide optimal 360-degree EMC shielding contact for cables, effectively suppressing electromagnetic interference in industrial applications.
What makes this locknut 'active'?
It is considered 'active' because its patented design includes cutting edges that actively cut through insulating layers upon tightening, ensuring a direct and reliable electrical connection to the shield.
What cable glands is this locknut compatible with?
It is specifically designed as an add-on for Lapp SKINTOP® ST-R M polyamide cable glands with an M32x1.5 thread.
What is the operating temperature range?
The locknut can operate reliably in extreme temperatures ranging from -70°C to 200°C.
What material is the locknut made of?
The locknut is made of brass and is nickel-plated for enhanced durability and corrosion resistance.
How many locknuts are included in a pack?
The product comes in a pack quantity of 10 pieces.
Can this locknut be used with any shielded cable?
It is designed for use with cables featuring copper braiding, and requires the compatible SKINTOP® ST-R M cable gland for proper installation and function.
Troubleshooting
No or poor EMC shielding effectiveness
Ensure the locknut is properly tightened. Verify that the cutting edges have penetrated the insulating layer of the housing. Check that the cable's copper braiding is adequately spread for 360-degree contact. Confirm compatibility with the specific SKINTOP® ST-R M cable gland.
Locknut difficult to tighten
Check for thread damage on both the locknut and the cable gland. Ensure no foreign debris is present in the threads. Verify the correct locknut size (M32x1.5) is being used with the corresponding cable gland.
Corrosion observed on the locknut
While nickel-plated brass offers good resistance, prolonged exposure to harsh industrial chemicals can still cause degradation. If corrosion is significant, replace the locknut to maintain optimal conductivity and protection.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The SKINTOP 54110843 is designed as an add-on component for Lapp SKINTOP® ST-R M polyamide cable glands. Ensure the cable gland is correctly installed first. Place the locknut onto the threaded post of the cable gland. Tighten the locknut securely. During tightening, the integrated cutting edges will cut through any insulating layer on the mounting surface (e.g., metal housing or enclosure wall) to establish optimal 360-degree shield contact.
Compatibility: This locknut is specifically compatible with Lapp SKINTOP® ST-R M polyamide cable glands with an M32x1.5 thread. It is designed for use with cables featuring copper braiding.
Care: The locknut is constructed from durable, nickel-plated brass and is designed for long-term use in industrial environments. No specific maintenance is typically required beyond ensuring a secure connection during installation. Avoid exposing the locknut to corrosive chemicals not listed in the material specifications.
