Description

This cable penetrator is a simple solution to waterproofing your robot, drone or subsea cannister. It’s basically a bolt with a hole that the tether or other thick cable can be glued (potted) into to provide a waterproof, removable connection through watertight enclosures, boxes, panels, etc.

This particular penetrator has a extended length head and nut to make it easy to install and remove on an enclosure, even on densely packed end caps like the 4″ Series 14-Hole end cap. That’s perfect for a tether or other cables that you would like to install and remove frequently.

We primarily recommend the WetLink Thixotropic Potting Compound, which can be applied in one step and provides a depth rating up to 1000 meters. Alternatively, we recommend Loctite Marine Epoxy and the Potting Kit to complete assembly.

All components are available via Marine Distribution & Consulting. Please browse the Blue Robotics section or contact us for a tailored offer or info!
