Multiple low-profile cable gland for cables up to Ø 15mm - Black anodized

This is an advanced sealing device designed to route multiple cables through a boat’s deck or bulkheads while providing waterproof protection. It features a low-profile design with a black anodized finish, making it ideal for marine environments.

The "Low Profile" design means the deck gland has minimal height above the deck, reducing both clutter and snagging risk. Its height is just 18.5 mm (0.73") once installed.

The deck gland is made from a robust material with a black anodized finish. This anodization provides high resistance to corrosion and UV, ensuring optimal durability in the marine environment.

Yes, this is a marine product from the Scanstrut brand, known for its durability and resistance to maritime conditions, including corrosion and UV.

Yes, a cutting template is provided with the through-hull fitting to simplify precise drilling and cutting required for installation on the deck or bulkhead.

A 35 mm (1 3/8") diameter hole is required to properly recess the deck gland into the mounting surface.

For installation, you will need the following tools:

A 2.5mm (3/32"), 3mm (1/8") or 4mm (5/32") drill bit for pilot holes, depending on the material.
A hole saw or drill with a 35mm (1 3/8") bit for the main hole.
A Pozidriv screwdriver.
Marine sealant for waterproofing.
A jigsaw may also be useful for cutting.

The thru-hull fitting is supplied with four type n°6 x 19mm screws. These screws are suitable for securing to soft or hard materials such as plywood, fiberglass, hardwood, or acrylic.

It is recommended to freeze the rubber bung before drilling it. The diameter of the hole to be drilled in the bung should be calculated by adding 1.5 mm to the diameter of the cable you wish to pass through, i.e.: hole diameter = cable diameter + 1.5 mm.

The pilot hole diameter depends on the material of your deck:

For soft materials (e.g., plywood), use a 2.5mm (3/32") drill bit. For hard materials (e.g., fiberglass, hardwoods, acrylics), use a 3mm (1/8") drill bit. For metal (e.g., steel, aluminum), use a 4mm (5/32") drill bit.

Yes, this deck hatch is compatible with a wide range of deck materials, including fiberglass, hardwoods, plywood, and acrylic. The included screws are suitable for these materials. For installations on metal, specific fasteners are recommended but not included.

Yes, this deck gland is specifically designed as a "multi-cable deck gland". The rubber bung can be precisely drilled to fit each individual cable, allowing multiple cables of varying diameters to pass through, provided they fall within the 1.5 mm to 15.0 mm range and space permits.
