Detailed description

Designed for clean and secure cable management, the CableClam side-entry cable gland with stainless steel cap from Blue Sea Systems is a dedicated solution for cable passes on ship decks. This model features a design that allows lateral cable routing, optimizing deck integration and reducing bending stress for enhanced cable durability.

Design and dimensions

The CableClam has compact dimensions of 56.80mm (2.24in) in length and 53.35mm (2.10in) in width, with a total height of 19.69mm (0.78in) once the cap is installed. The cable passage opening measures 15.51mm (0.61in) in width and 14.16mm (0.56in) in height, suitable for medium-sized cables. It is secured using mounting holes designed for #8 screws, ensuring stable and reliable installation on the chosen surface.

Positioning and advantages

This Blue Sea CableClam model is an alternative to traditional cable glands, particularly advantageous when lateral cable exit parallel to the mounting surface is required. The stainless steel cap not only adds an aesthetic touch but also provides superior UV and corrosion resistance compared to fully plastic versions, positioning this CableClam as a durable option for demanding marine environments. It complements the Blue Sea Systems range by offering a discreet and robust solution for deck lighting cables, sensors, or antennas, where other models in the range, such as top-entry CableClam units, would be less suitable for routing along the surface.

Expert opinion

« Technical analysis: CableClam Blue Sea, cable management and marine aesthetics »

This Blue Sea Systems CableClam with side entry is a critical component for any marine installation requiring careful cable management on deck. Its utility is evident for both sailboats and powerboats, where aesthetics and discretion are paramount. It is ideal for routing deck lighting cables, mast sensors, or antenna cables along a surface, preventing excessive bends that could damage insulation or conductors over time.

Installation is straightforward: after precise drilling for #8 mounting screws, the compression ring and gasket ensure effective sealing against water ingress. The stainless steel cap, which clips onto the assembly, provides a clean finish and enhanced protection against the elements, an advantage over all-plastic cable glands. This model stands out for its side entry orientation, allowing smoother integration in setups where cables must follow horizontal lines or existing structures on deck. It is not designed for very large-diameter cable bundles or multiple passes requiring higher volumetric capacity. It excels in single or double moderate-sized cable applications where its robustness and metallic finish deliver real added value.
