1. How often should cable glands be inspected in heavy industry?

Monthly visual checks and annual retorqueing are typically recommended. Increase inspection frequency if the site has high chemical exposure, vibration, or temperature swings.

Stainless steel (AISI 316L or better) with compatible elastomeric seals offers the highest resistance to corrosion in chemical, marine, and extreme industrial settings.

3. What are signs that a cable gland needs replacement?

Look for visible corrosion, color fading/yellowing (in plastics), cracks, looseness, or signs of water/dust ingress in the enclosure.
