Threaded Holes
max. 6G/6H
The plastic gland is made
from flame retardant, high
impact resistant polyamide
If the sealing surfaces are
uneven, use PTFE washer
NFWM25 or the green fiber
washer GFWM25 (washers
to be ordered separately)
Ra 6,4 µm, better than
3,2 µm is recommended
≥ 4 mm

whichever is smaller
Earth tags should be
installed on the inside of the
enclosure
The outermost edge must
not have a greater diameter
than the center of the
washer
Only use nVent RAYCHEM
