Scanstrut Vertical Waterproof Cable Seals – Black Range
Achieve a 100% watertight, professional entry point for all your external routing needs with the premium Scanstrut Vertical Cable Seal range. Manufactured from high-impact, UV-stabilized glass-filled nylon, these seals are the definitive marine and overland industry standard for passing cables cleanly through vehicle roofs, camper hulls, enclosures, or bulkheads without exposing your setup to water ingress.
Advanced Mechanical Weatherproofing
Unlike traditional cable glands that warp in the sun or rely on messy silicone sealants that degrade over time, Scanstrut relies entirely on precision mechanical compression. Each unit features a tapered internal rubber bung that wraps around the cable, combined with a high-grade, closed-cell waterproof base gasket. Rigorously tested and certified to IPX6 and IPX7 (IP68 compliant) standards, this design prevents water ingress even during high-pressure washdowns or extreme driving rain.
No Connector Removal Required
Every seal comes supplied with both a pre-drilled inner bung and a blank bung that can be custom-drilled to fit specialized wiring. The innovative split-seal design allows you to pass pre-terminated cables and large plugs cleanly through the base without needing to cut the factory connectors off your high-end electronics.
Size & Selection Matrix
Choose the exact model configuration required to match your wire thickness and maximum plug/connector diameter:
| Part Number | Accommodates Cable Diameter | Max Connector/Plug Diameter | Best Used For |
| DS16-P-BLK | 2mm to 8mm | 16mm | Thin solar cables, standard VHF/UHF antennas, coaxial cables, reverse cameras. |
| DS21A-P-BLK | 4mm to 9mm | 21mm | Heavy-duty individual core solar wiring, multi-core auxiliary lighting looms. |
| DS21B-P-BLK | 9mm to 14mm | 21mm | Thick marine power lines, heavy auxiliary cables with standard-sized inline plugs. |
| DS30-P-BLK | 9mm to 14mm | 30mm | Thick multi-core bundles, radar systems, or large pre-terminated satellite connectors. |
| DS40-P-BLK | 12mm to 15mm | 40mm | Maximum-capacity entry for main battery banks, heavy-gauge shore power lines, and oversized connectors. |
Key Structural Features:
- Contoured Dome Design: An aesthetic, rounded low-profile shape that prevents snagging on low-hanging branches, roof racks, or lines while absorbing impacts.
- Captive Mounting Nuts: Engineered with captive nuts pre-set into the base plate, allowing for simple assembly and reliable, repeatable removal during future rewiring upgrades.
- UV-Stabilized Stealth Finish: Part of Scanstrut's black plastic range, designed to withstand continuous exposure to intense sunlight without fading, warping, or turning brittle.
Installation Guidelines:
Ensure the mounting surface is thoroughly cleaned, flat, and completely free of debris before peeling the adhesive backing off the foam base gasket. Use the included drilling template to mark your holes accurately. When fitting the cable, choose the matching pre-drilled diameter slit from the included kit or drill out the blank bung to match your specific wire gauge. Hand-tighten all stainless steel fixings evenly to ensure a flush, uniform, and vibration-proof seal against the panel.
