High-performance cable management systems engineered for reliability.
In the rapidly advancing landscape of global industrial automation and green energy transitions, the humble Metric Cable Gland has evolved from a simple mechanical fastener into a critical component for system integrity. As a leading manufacturer in China, we recognize that modern connectivity demands more than just a waterproof seal; it requires EMI/RFI shielding, explosion-proof safety (ATEX/Ex), and long-term durability in extreme thermal environments.
Global markets are decisively moving toward Metric (EN 62444) standards, replacing older PG or NPT threads in most high-end European and Asian machinery. This standardization simplifies inventory management and ensures higher precision in thread engagement, which is vital for maintaining an IP68 or IP69K protection rating. Our production facility utilizes high-speed CNC centers to maintain tolerances within microns, ensuring that every M12 to M100 gland provides a gas-tight fit.
Not all stainless steels are created equal. While many suppliers offer generic "metal glands," our technical team emphasizes the use of 316L Stainless Steel for marine and chemical processing applications to prevent chloride stress corrosion. For the New Energy Vehicle (NEV) sector, our Nylon 66 (UL 94V-0) reinforced glands provide flame retardancy that exceeds standard safety benchmarks, offering a significant safety margin during high-voltage operations.
Located in Yueqing, the electrical capital of China, we benefit from a hyper-local ecosystem of raw material suppliers, plating facilities, and logistics hubs, reducing lead times by up to 40% compared to international competitors.
Our in-house laboratory allows for rapid prototyping and testing. We can move from a CAD drawing to a certified physical sample in under 10 days, supporting the "Time-to-Market" needs of global tech firms.
Utilizing automated optical inspection (AOI), we achieve a defect rate of less than 50 PPM (parts per million), meeting the rigorous standards of the automotive and aerospace industries.

A Benchmark Enterprise in Industrial Connectivity
Founded in 2006, Zhejiang Hongxiang Connector Co., Ltd. is rooted in Yueqing, Zhejiang — a national hub for precision electrical manufacturing in China. After nearly two decades of dedicated development, the company has evolved into a large modern industrial connectivity solutions provider integrating R&D and design, large-scale intelligent manufacturing, global sales, and one-stop services.
Boasting a modern intelligent manufacturing industrial park, the company operates a standardized production workshop of over 10,000 square meters, equipped with multiple high-precision automated production lines, CNC machining centers, and a full-process quality control laboratory. With a core team of more than 300 professionals — over 30% of whom are R&D and quality management personnel — its annual production capacity exceeds 80 million units.
Its core product portfolio includes metal cable glands, nylon cable glands, waterproof cable glands, explosion-proof connectors, conduit fittings, and various customized connecting accessories. These products serve high-end sectors such as industrial electrical equipment, new energy equipment, rail transit, shipbuilding, and military supporting facilities. Adhering to stringent manufacturing standards, the company has obtained ISO9001, IATF16949, CE, UL, ATEX, RoHS, and IP68 certifications.
Cable glands are critical for NEVs, serving as essential components to manage and protect cables in high-voltage systems, battery packs, and motor controllers. Engineered to withstand vibration and moisture, they ensure insulation integrity and safety.
Adapted to dynamic movements, these glands manage power and data in industrial robots. They prevent tangling and abrasion while ensuring IP68-rated sealing for precision operations.
Designed for offshore salt-fog resistance and extreme temperatures (-52℃ to 90℃), protecting vital power and signal cables in wind turbines and substations.
Used in high-speed rail and metro tunnels, these glands resist continuous vibration and moisture, offering explosion-proof performance for long-term safety.

Global enterprises are no longer just looking for "cheap" products. The procurement focus has shifted to Sustainability (RoHS/REACH) and Energy Efficiency. Our glands use recyclable polymers and sustainable brass-lead alloys that comply with the strictest EU environmental directives.
The industry is moving toward "Smart Glands" equipped with sensors for moisture detection or heat monitoring. While still in early adoption, our R&D department is already testing prototypes that integrate with IoT industrial gateways.
Multi-sourcing is the new norm. By partnering with Hongxiang, global enterprises secure a secondary or primary supply line that is immune to Western localized labor shortages, backed by a 24/7 automated manufacturing capability.
Metric threads (e.g., M20) are the global standard based on millimeters with a 1.5mm pitch typically. NPT (National Pipe Thread) is a US standard for tapered threads. Metric glands are preferred for international projects due to their simplified sizing and compatibility with EN 62444 standards.
Our IP68 glands undergo pressure testing equivalent to 5 bar (50 meters depth). We use high-quality EPDM or Silicone O-rings and a unique multi-tier clamping claw design that ensures uniform pressure around the cable jacket.
Yes, our BWL and EX-series glands are certified under ATEX and IECEx for use in Zone 1 and Zone 2 hazardous areas, including mining, oil & gas, and chemical plants.
Absolutely. We offer customized inner sealing rings and clamping claws to accommodate non-standard or flat cables, ensuring a perfect seal even when standard catalog sizes do not fit.
Ensuring system stability with certified precision hardware.
