Strain Relief
for safe relief and fixation of cables
Strain Relief is used to protect cables and connections against mechanical stress in cabinets and industrial installations.
By relieving tensile forces, the risk of cable damage, loose connections and operational disruptions is reduced.

FAQ - Frequently asked questions about Strain Relief
When is Strain Relief the right choice?
Strain Relief is the right choice when cables are at risk of being exposed to pull, movement or vibration.
- Cables are inserted into cabinets or enclosures
- Movable or flexible cables are used
- Vibrations or mechanical impact occur
- Sensitive connections need to be protected
Strain Relief is often used in combination with cable glands to ensure long life and reliable installation.
When might other solutions be more appropriate?
Strain Relief does not replace all types of cable protection or cable fastening.
- Cables are completely fixed and without movement → fixed cable routing without additional strain relief
- The cable needs to be sealed against the enclosure → cable gland or cable gland
- The cable should be organized lengthwise → cable ducts or cable holders
When is Strain Relief needed in control cabinets?
When cables are at risk of being subjected to mechanical stress, for example during movement, vibration or service.
Does Strain Relief replace cable glands?
No, strain relief and cable gland fulfill different functions and are often used together.
Can Strain Relief be mounted on a mounting plate?
Yes, many strain relief solutions are adapted for mounting on sheet metal or DIN rail.
Is Strain Relief a requirement according to the standard?
In many applications, strain relief is a requirement to meet safe and reliable cable installation.
