Why Choose the Partex PXA2-32L M32 Unarmoured Cable Gland?
The Partex PXA2-32L is a reliable and practical M32 A1/A2 unarmoured cable gland designed to provide secure cable entry, mechanical retention and outer sheath sealing for unarmoured electrical cables in industrial installations, electrical enclosures and control panels. As part of the Partex A1/A2 cable gland range, it provides a dependable solution for cable termination where secure cable management and protection at enclosure entry points are essential.
Designed for cables with an outside diameter of 19.0–25.5 mm, the PXA2-32L accommodates a range of larger unarmoured electrical cables used in industrial power distribution, machinery installations and electrical control systems. Its M32 metric entry thread enables installation into appropriately sized threaded enclosure entries or suitable clearance holes using compatible retaining accessories.
The Partex PXA2-32L features an A1/A2 compression-type gland arrangement designed to grip and seal around the cable outer sheath. This helps limit cable movement at the entry point while supporting the environmental protection of the enclosure when correctly installed. Its robust construction and practical installation format make it suitable for electrical contractors, industrial maintenance engineers and control panel manufacturers.

Reliable Cable Entry and Protection for Industrial Electrical Systems
Cable glands are essential components in electrical installations, providing a secure interface between cables and the enclosures they enter. Correctly selected cable glands help retain cables, reduce mechanical stress at entry points and support the environmental protection of electrical equipment.
The Partex PXA2-32L is designed for unarmoured electrical cables with outside diameters of 19.0–25.5 mm. Its A1/A2 configuration provides mechanical retention and compression sealing around the cable outer sheath without requiring cable armour clamping or armour earthing arrangements.
With its M32 metric thread, the PXA2-32L is suitable for cable entry into compatible industrial control cabinets, electrical distribution enclosures and machinery housings. Correct gland selection, installation and the use of suitable sealing or retaining accessories where required help maintain a reliable cable entry arrangement. The overall enclosure protection rating depends on the complete installation and associated components.
Typical Applications
- Industrial electrical control panels and automation cabinets.
- Electrical junction boxes and terminal enclosures.
- Unarmoured power and control cable entry into industrial machinery.
- Motor control centres and electrical distribution equipment.
- PLC cabinets and industrial automation systems.
