Cable gland / Socket sealing insert EK 186/90 (for inner pipe diameter 76-95 mm) BP-102818

Conduit end seal – socket cap EK 186/90

This socket sealing insert, commonly known as a socket cap EK 186/90, is a key element protecting the ends of protective conduits from contamination and moisture. Using it in conjunction with pipes laid underground or in cable pits significantly extends the life of the installation and minimizes the risk of failure due to corrosion or mechanical damage.

The EK 186/90 cap is designed for pipes with an inner diameter in the range of 76-95 mm. The design of the cap allows for effective sealing, preventing the ingress of sludge, sand and water into the pipe. This is particularly important for telecommunications and power cables, where moisture can lead to serious signal transmission problems.

Features and benefits

• Effective protection against contamination: Prevents silting and sanding of pipe openings, maintaining patency and ensuring proper functioning of the installation.
• Made of polyethylene: This material is characterized by appropriate flexibility and resistance to atmospheric conditions, which guarantees long-term tightness.
• Two-part construction: Allows for multiple uses of the cap, which translates into cost savings.
• Halogen-free product: Ensures environmental safety and minimizes the risk of toxic gas formation in the event of a fire.
• Versatile application: Ideal for installers working in telecommunications, energy, and road traffic engineering.

By using the EK 186/90 cap, you can avoid costly repairs related to damage to cables or wires caused by dampness or contamination. It is a simple but effective solution that increases the reliability of the entire installation. Additionally, the possibility of using a star filler allows for sealing a larger number of cables in one pipe opening, which increases the flexibility of the system.
