Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum number of wires this seal can handle?
The seal's capacity is measured by the combined diameter of the wires, up to 10.6mm (0.5 inches), rather than a specific wire count.
What type of plastic is used in its construction?
The seal is constructed from a durable black plastic material, chosen for its resistance to marine elements like UV radiation and saltwater.
Can this seal be used for both power and data cables?
Yes, this cable seal is suitable for a variety of marine cables, including both power and data, provided their combined diameter does not exceed the specified limit.
Does this product come with installation hardware?
Installation hardware is not specified for this product. It is designed for integration with existing hull fittings or appropriate mounting solutions.
What is the benefit of a vertical cable seal over a horizontal one?
A vertical seal is often preferred in confined spaces to manage cable runs efficiently and can assist in preventing water from pooling within the seal housing due to gravity.
