PG11 thin nuts

PG threads are pretty standard on things like Legrand and Sarel cabinet/gland fittings, your electrical wholesaler should keep them, maybe RS as well.

cabinet/gland

Sadly both RS and Farnell have them listed but 'no longer stocked' - last time I needed some I drew a blank at the usual Electrical suppliers. I have however just experimented single pointing one - PG is a wierd thread angle but I've just made one using a 60 deg tool which is an ok'ish fit - wouldn't want to trust my life to it though

PG is 80 degrees thread angle Good spec sheet here.

Andrew,

Strange RS don't have them as I've just bought a load from them through my company for a job !

They still have Nylon gland nuts, but if Andrew needs something stronger then steel or brass would be preferable, and they aren't listed.

PG threads are generally female for cable glands etc to fit into, they are not a gland size per se for panels etc, which is probably why you don't see many locknuts.

I'll ask our local wholesaler rep on Monday if he has any kicking around.

I've just got steel ones and PG blanks for control cabinets.
