Waterproof 90° Elbow Corrugated Tubing Cable Gland
GEWTF
Product Overview
Waterproof 90° Elbow Corrugated Tubing Cable Gland
A waterproof 90° elbow cable gland designed for mobile automation equipment where space is limited. The fixed 90° exit angle redirects corrugated tubing at the gland itself — eliminating tight bends in the conduit, reducing wiring footprint, and preventing conduit damage from overbending.
Built from halogen-free PA66 nylon (UL94V-2) with an EPDM elastomeric seal, it achieves IP68 protection. The seal maintains full integrity even under cable pull-out force, making it reliable in demanding washdown, oil-resistant, and outdoor electrical enclosure applications.
Key Features
- Fixed 90° cable exit: Redirects conduit at the gland — no forced bends, minimal wiring space required
- IP68 pull-resistant seal: Maintains airtight integrity even when the conduit is pulled, suitable for harsh washdown environments
- Halogen-free UL94V-2 + multi-thread: Meets environmental safety standards; Metric, PG, G, and NPT threads available

Engineering Drawing
Application Scenarios
Mobile Automation Equipment
The 90° exit redirects conduit at the gland, eliminating forced bends inside tight enclosures and preventing conduit fatigue from repeated movement.
Washdown & Oil-Resistant Environments
IP68 sealing holds under pull-out force, making it reliable for high-pressure cleaning environments, machine tools, and food processing equipment.
Control Panels & Outdoor Enclosures
EPDM weatherproof seal combined with IP68 protection ensures long-term performance in outdoor electrical cabinets and industrial control panels.
FAQ
Q1｜How does a 90° elbow gland differ from a straight cable gland? When should I choose it?
A standard straight gland exits the conduit perpendicular to the panel opening. If space inside the enclosure is limited, a straight entry forces the conduit into a tight bend radius, which can stress and crack the tubing over time. The GEWTF performs the 90° redirection at the gland itself, so the conduit runs straight after exiting — dramatically reducing the wiring footprint and eliminating conduit fatigue.
Q2｜What does IP68 mean? Will pulling on the conduit break the seal?
IP68 per IEC 60529 means complete dust-tightness and continuous water immersion resistance (typically 1 m / 30 min or more). The GEWTF seal is engineered for dynamic environments — it maintains full integrity even when the conduit is pulled, ensuring protection is not compromised by external forces in mobile or moving-part applications.
Q3｜What thread standards are available? How do I select the right one?
GEWTF supports Metric (M-series), PG (German standard), G/PF (British standard), and NPT (American standard) threads, covering all major global equipment interface standards. Before ordering, confirm the thread type and size on your panel or enclosure knock-out, then verify that your conduit outer diameter falls within the gland's clamping range using the engineering drawing.
Q4｜What customizable EPDM seal formulas are available?
Standard EPDM provides excellent weathering and ozone resistance. Custom formulas include:
・Cold-resistant: for cold storage and low-temperature outdoor applications
・High-temperature: for furnace surrounds and engine compartments
・Chemical-resistant: for chemical plants, semiconductor wet-process, and oil-exposed environments
Contact our sales team with your application conditions to confirm the best formula.
Q5｜The standard rating is UL94V-2 — can it be upgraded to V-0?
Yes. UL94V-2 is the standard self-extinguishing grade. UL94V-0 extinguishes faster and produces no flaming drips, making it the preferred choice for equipment with open flame risk, high-safety-class power devices, medical instruments, and aerospace applications. Specify the required grade at ordering; custom versions are quoted based on quantity and lead time.
