Why Choose the Partex PXBW-75S BW Indoor Cable Gland?
The Partex PXBW-75S is a heavy-duty BW indoor armoured cable gland designed for the secure termination of steel wire armoured (SWA) electrical cables in dry indoor environments. Featuring an M75 metric entry thread and a specified cable diameter range of 62.0–71.6 mm, this gland provides a practical termination solution for large industrial power cables entering electrical enclosures, switchgear and distribution equipment.
As part of the Partex BW indoor cable gland range, the PXBW-75S is designed to mechanically clamp the metallic cable armour, providing secure retention and facilitating electrical continuity through a correctly installed earthing arrangement. BW glands are commonly used in indoor electrical installations where reliable armour termination is required without the integral outer sheath weatherproof sealing associated with outdoor cable glands.
With its M75 threaded entry and compatibility with cables measuring 62.0–71.6 mm in outside diameter, the Partex PXBW-75S is particularly suitable for large-diameter armoured power cables used in industrial distribution networks, electrical switchrooms and heavy-duty equipment installations. Its robust gland design supports dependable cable termination in demanding indoor electrical environments.

Reliable Armour Termination for Industrial Power Distribution
BW cable glands are designed to terminate steel wire armoured electrical cables by mechanically gripping the cable armour at the point where the cable enters an enclosure. This provides cable retention and helps establish electrical continuity between the metallic armour and the installation's protective earthing system when suitable bonding components and installation procedures are used.
The Partex PXBW-75S is intended for larger armoured cables requiring an M75 enclosure entry. Correct selection involves checking the cable's overall diameter and armour dimensions against the gland's compatibility requirements. The specified 62.0–71.6 mm cable diameter range makes it suitable for appropriately sized industrial power cables, subject to confirmation of armour compatibility.
Unlike CW-type outdoor glands, BW indoor glands do not normally provide an integral environmental seal around the cable's outer sheath. The PXBW-75S is therefore intended for dry indoor applications or installations where separate enclosure protection provides the necessary resistance to moisture and environmental exposure.
Typical Applications
- Large-diameter steel wire armoured power cable terminations.
- Industrial low-voltage power distribution systems.
- Electrical switchrooms and distribution switchgear.
- Heavy-duty electrical control panels and power cabinets.
- Commercial and industrial building electrical infrastructure.
- Indoor transformer and electrical equipment cable connections.
- Industrial plant maintenance and electrical installation projects.
