Armoured
Armoured ATEX cable glands (HARDO HCG2) are double-compression metal glands for circular SWA/SWB armoured cables. They seal the inner and outer sheath and clamp the armour. Certified ATEX/IECEx for Zones 1, 2, 21 and 22 — Ex db / Ex eb / Ex tb, IP66/IP68, −55°C … +160°C, metric M20–M90 or NPT.
To select: armour type (SWA/SWB) · entry thread (metric / NPT) · under-armour Ø A + overall Ø B · material · Ex marking and certificates. Not for unarmoured cable — use Non-armoured (HCG1).

How to use the selection filters
The left-hand panel (on phones: the Selection button) narrows the HARDO cable-gland catalogue. Set parameters in engineering order — from cable type to diameter.
Non-armoured → HCG1 series. Armoured (SWA/SWB) → HCG2. On armoured/non-armoured child categories this filter is already fixed.
Choose metric or NPT to match the enclosure entry. Do not mix systems — thread sizes follow the selected family.
Set the thread size (e.g. M20, M25…) and material: brass, nickel-plated brass or stainless steel 316L. Multiple values are allowed — the grid shows products that match.
Overall Ø — outer cable diameter. For armoured glands also use Under sheet Ø. Only glands whose sealing range covers the value remain.
- Set cable type (or open the armoured / non-armoured subcategory).
- Match thread family to the enclosure entry (metric / NPT). M16 entry: HAD adaptor + M20 gland.
- Choose thread size and gland material.
- Enter cable OD (and under-sheet OD for HCG2 when needed).
- Click Find matching glands — the product grid updates.
- Open the SKU card and verify sealing code, Ex marking and documents.
- Above the grid, Selected specification chips appear — × removes one parameter.
- Clear in the panel resets the whole selection.
- On mobile the filter panel opens as a Bootstrap offcanvas (Selection button).
- The apply button shows how many glands match before you confirm.
- They do not replace checking the ATEX/IECEx certificate and installation instruction.
- They do not auto-add an HAD adaptor — for M16 add it separately.
- Final selection must be made by a competent person with the full installation documentation.
HCG2 — cable ranges (armoured)
Table for armoured HCG2 glands. The CODE column shows nickel-plated brass (N) examples;
the same Ø ranges apply to brass (B) and stainless 316L (S) for the same sealing code.
Cable diameter under the armour (bedding), min–max [mm].
Outer cable diameter (overall / outer sheath), min–max [mm].
Thread length E [mm] — entry length into the enclosure (metric or NPT).
How to read: under-armour Ø → column A; overall Ø → column B. Both must match the same row.
