This double cable seal from Scanstrut provides the ideal waterproof cable routing solution when installing solar panels on boats, campervans, motorhomes, trucks, caravans and more. Its sleek, low-profile design and black colour means that it blends discretely into most applications, and its simple design allows you to bring external cables inside with a minimum of fuss and installation time.
Tapered glands form watertight seals around the cables and a closed-cell foam gasket between the housing and the deck ensures a 100% watertight fitting. All fixings are 316 stainless steel to resist corrosion in marine and outdoor environments and the housing is made from tough, black, impact resistant plastic with rounded edges to prevent catching on ropes and tie-down straps.
Designed to suit solar cable with 5-6mm outside diameter (typically 4mm² or 6mm² CSA solar cable), but blank glands are provided for you to drill to suit other cable sizes.
Please note: due to the design of the unit, pre-fitted solar connectors will need to be removed from the cable before installation
Sold individually and supplied complete with fixings.

I needed a solution to allow a new, larger panel to sit into existing framework. Old entry was far too big. This little gem is so flat it’s hardly noticeable.
6mm cables were a little tight to get through (I think that’s because I was retrofitting and May vary on the brand of cable) but it was worth it.
Price a bit steep but very well made, installation and seal is a great improvement on the bigger, cheaper kind. I’d use these over the others every time now

Very good quality, a nice slimline and low profile cable entry seal that works really well and was easy to install.
