What is the material of the Goran head (cable sealing joint, cable gland)?

2017-11-10View Original

Thread Content

1. What is the material used for Golan heads (cable sealing joints, cable glanding)? In projects from over a decade ago, galvanized carbon steel was often used; why is stainless steel or nickel-plated brass preferred these days? 2. Domestic manufacturers generally use galvanized carbon steel, as well as stainless steel and other materials, but why do foreign manufacturers always use stainless steel or nickel-plated brass, with very little use of galvanized carbon steel?

We use more engineering plastics

After being galvanized for a long time, carbon steel becomes difficult to remove

The quality of the materials used for installing instruments has improved nowadays. Most projects use sealed flanges, made of stainless steel or nickel-plated brass; stainless steel is more expensive and harder, while copper is cheaper but softer in quality. Both types of GRAN are suitable for both armored and unarmored cables, and can be disassembled repeatedly. Over time, galvanized carbon steel will rust due to the degradation of the galvanizing layer, and carbon steel is more fragile and prone to breaking compared to stainless steel and copper.

Stainless steel and brass are expensive; we use plastic instead. PE plastic is recommended.

We use an explosion-proof 8-piece set, made of galvanized copper. I’ve never used galvanized carbon steel. Many transmitter displays are made of aluminum alloy. Over time, the metal threads can stick to the dial, making it difficult to remove. Even if it’s removed, the header housing is ruined. Apply some butter or sealant when using it. The sealing performance of the plastic gland fittings is not as good as that of the explosion-proof 8-piece set; it’s actually quite decent, but it just doesn’t meet my aesthetic standards. :Lol, it’s purely a personal issue~~~

We use an explosion-proof 8-piece set; what exactly does a copper-galvanized 8-piece set entail? Could you please provide some clarification?

“What is an “explosion-proof 8-piece set”? ,,, Let’s post a picture so bro can take a look. . . Thank you! .

There are a few more for which the images can’t be found. There are many and diverse types. These days, those that look like stainless steel are being used

Since it consists of 8 items, we informally and non-professionally call it the explosion-proof 8-piece set. . . It’s actually a metal explosion-proof fitting; it’s just used to distinguish different types of fittings. Some Gran heads come in sets of 4, some in sets of 6, and others in sets of 8.
