About MICC Gland

We have been serving our clients with a quality tested range of MICC Gland in the market. This finds application in emergency lighting systems, temperature measurement devices, RTDs and thermocouples. MICC Gland is also used in the critical process valves in the petrochemical industry and public buildings such as cinemas, theatres, hotels, etc.

Superior Protection & Reliability

MICC Glands deliver exceptional performance in hostile environments. Designed to withstand extreme temperatures between -80C and +250C, they resist corrosion, moisture, chemicals, and fire. This makes them ideal for hazardous locations and industrial settings where safety and reliability are paramount. With premium brass or copper construction, and options for natural or nickel-plated finishes, durability and strength are unmatched.

Customizable Solutions for Every Need

Available in multiple thread sizes (M16, M20, M25) and adaptable for cable sizes from 1.5mm2 to 16mm2, these glands can also be tailored for custom requirements. The robust threaded mounting ensures a secure fit, while varied sealing types (potting compound or resin) provide compatibility for different cable types. Each gland includes a body, sealing disc, washer, and nut, offering seamless integration with electrical systems.

Easy Installation and Maintenance

Designed for simplicity and efficiency, MICC Cable Glands ensure rapid installation through their threaded design. The immediate physical sealing offers minimal response time, yielding both flameproof and weatherproof protection upon application. Their compact size, moderate weight (25-150g), and sturdy construction facilitate easy handling and long-term maintenance, reducing downtime in industrial networks.

FAQ's of MICC Gland:

Q: How do MICC Glands ensure a secure and flameproof seal for electrical cable terminations?

A: MICC Glands use robust materials such as brass or copper combined with potting compound or resin sealing to create an immediate and reliable seal against fire, moisture, and chemicals. This ensures that terminations of mineral insulated cables remain secure, even in hazardous or industrial locations.

Q: What is the process for installing a MICC Gland on a cable?

A: To install a MICC Gland, select the correct thread size (M16, M20, M25) and cable fit (1.5mm2-16mm2). Slide the gland components-sealing disc, washer, and nut-onto the prepared cable. Insert the cable into the gland body and tighten the assembly into the equipment using the threaded connection. Apply potting compound or resin as required, ensuring a weatherproof and flameproof seal.

Q: Where are MICC Glands commonly used and what advantages do they offer?

A: MICC Glands are widely used in industrial wiring, electrical systems, and hazardous environments in India and globally. Their high IP rating, flameproof and weatherproof design, and resistance to corrosion and chemicals provide consistent safety and reliability for critical installations.

Q: When should I choose a natural brass versus a nickel-plated finish for MICC Glands?

A: Choose natural brass for environments where corrosion resistance is less critical, as it provides excellent conductivity and durability. Opt for nickel-plated finish in settings exposed to aggressive chemicals, high humidity, or when added corrosion resistance and aesthetic appeal are essential.

Q: What cable sizes and voltages can MICC Glands accommodate?

A: MICC Glands are designed to fit cables ranging from 1.5mm2 to 16mm2, with custom sizes available upon request. They support rated voltages up to 1000V AC and currents up to 32A, making them suitable for a wide spectrum of industrial and electrical applications.

Q: How do MICC Glands benefit long-term electrical installations?

A: Their robust construction and high resistance to thermal, chemical, and environmental hazards provide reliable cable sealing and termination over extensive periods. This reduces maintenance requirements, increases operational safety, and ensures the longevity of electrical infrastructure.
