Why Choose the Partex PXCW-40L CW Outdoor Armoured Cable Gland?
The Partex PXCW-40L is a robust CW outdoor brass armoured cable gland designed to provide secure mechanical termination and environmental sealing for compatible armoured electrical cables. Featuring an M40 metric entry thread and accommodating cable outside diameters from 32.2–40.0 mm, this gland is suitable for outdoor electrical enclosures, industrial power distribution equipment and electrical installations exposed to moisture and changing weather conditions.
As part of the Partex CW outdoor cable gland range, the PXCW-40L combines a mechanical armour clamping arrangement with an outer cable compression seal. Its durable brass construction provides mechanical strength, while the sealing arrangement helps protect electrical enclosures against dust and moisture ingress. The CW gland design is particularly suitable for steel wire armoured (SWA) cable installations requiring secure cable retention and environmental protection.
With an M40 fixing thread, 40L gland size and cable acceptance range of 32.2–40.0 mm, the PXCW-40L provides a practical solution for larger-diameter armoured cable entries. Its outdoor gland construction makes it suitable for electrical contractors, panel builders and industrial maintenance professionals working with armoured power cables in commercial and industrial installations.

Reliable Cable Sealing and Armour Termination for Outdoor Electrical Installations
Outdoor electrical installations require cable entry components capable of providing secure mechanical retention while helping protect electrical equipment against environmental exposure. The Partex PXCW-40L CW brass cable gland combines a mechanical armour clamping arrangement with compression sealing around the cable outer sheath. This arrangement helps maintain the integrity of the cable entry while providing dependable termination for compatible armoured cables.
The PXCW-40L accommodates cable outside diameters between 32.2 mm and 40.0 mm and features an M40 metric entry thread. Correct installation requires verification of cable dimensions and armour compatibility, appropriate cable preparation, proper tightening of gland components and a suitable protective earthing arrangement. The completed installation must also maintain the required ingress protection of the electrical enclosure.
Typical Applications
- Outdoor steel wire armoured cable terminations.
- Industrial low-voltage power distribution systems.
- Outdoor electrical junction boxes and termination enclosures.
- Electrical switchgear and distribution board cable entries.
- Armoured power cable connections to industrial machinery.
- Commercial and industrial building electrical installations.
- External lighting and power distribution equipment.
- Industrial automation and control panel cable entries.
- Water treatment and infrastructure electrical installations.
- Outdoor electrical cabinets and fixed equipment enclosures.
