Rittal 7705235 Gland Plate for Metric Cable Glands, Carbon Steel, IP 55

The Rittal 7705235 Gland Plate for Metric Cable Glands is a folded flange plate engineered for controlled cable entry into electrical enclosures. Built from 1.5 mm carbon steel with a foamed-in seal, this gland plate carries an IP 55 protection rating to EN 60529 and IEC 60529 for reliable sealing performance.

The plate mounts into standard Rittal enclosure cutouts, simplifying cable management on panelboards and control cabinets.

Rittal 7705235 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) How many cable glands can the Rittal 7705235 gland plate take, and in what sizes?
The 7705235 comes with 20 pre-punched knockouts in one plate: 4 x M12, 8 x M20, 6 x M25, 1 x M32 and 1 x M40. That covers everything from small control/signal glands up to a single large power entry, so one plate usually handles a full control panel's cable entry without any field drilling.
2) Will a gland plate with knockouts still keep my enclosure sealed?
Yes, provided you gland every hole you open. The 7705235 is a folded flange plate with a foamed-in seal at the enclosure interface and is rated IP 55 to EN 60529 and IEC 60529, which is dust-protected and protected against water jets. The knockouts are closed until you punch them, so unused sizes stay sealed; any knockout you do open has to be filled with a properly rated metric gland to hold the IP 55 rating.
3) Does the Rittal 7705235 gland plate fit any enclosure, or only Rittal cabinets?
It is made to drop into standard Rittal enclosure cutouts. If you are working on a Rittal cabinet or panelboard, the folded flange seats in the existing gland plate opening. On a non-Rittal enclosure you would need to confirm the cutout matches before ordering, since the plate is dimensioned to Rittal's standard opening.
4) What is the difference between the Rittal 7705235 gland plate and a Hoffman AS250 Hol-Sealer?
They solve two different cable-entry problems. The Rittal 7705235 is a folded flange gland plate in 1.5 mm carbon steel with a foamed-in seal, pre-punched with 4xM12, 8xM20, 6xM25, 1xM32 and 1xM40 knockouts so multiple metric glands can be landed through one plate in an enclosure cutout. The Hoffman AS250 Hol-Sealer is a hole seal in painted galvanized steel, used to close off an existing unused opening rather than to carry a bank of glands. Choose the 7705235 when you need an organized multi-gland entry, and a hole seal when you are plugging a hole you do not intend to use.
5) Gland plate or hole seal, which do I need for an enclosure cable entry?
Different jobs. The Rittal 7705235 is a full gland plate: it replaces a panel section and gives you 20 pre-punched metric entries at once, which is what you want when you are building out or rewiring a control cabinet. If you only need to close or seal one existing hole in an enclosure wall, a single hole seal such as the Hoffman AS250 Hol-Sealer in painted galvanized steel is the simpler part. Use the gland plate for new cable entry capacity, the hole seal for patching one opening.
6) Can I use the Rittal 7705235 gland plate in a dusty or washdown industrial area?
IP 55 covers dust-protected and water-jet-protected service, so it suits general industrial plant, machine builds and automation cabinets where there is airborne dust and occasional hose-down or splash. It is not a submersion or high-pressure washdown rating, so for continuous direct high-pressure cleaning you need a higher IP class entry.
7) Do I have to drill the Rittal 7705235 gland plate on site?
No drilling. The holes are pre-punched knock-outs, so you knock out only the sizes your run needs and leave the rest closed. That keeps metal filings out of the enclosure and keeps the sealing face intact, which is the usual failure point when installers drill a plate in the field.
8) Does a steel hole seal give the same sealing rating as the Rittal 7705235 gland plate?
The Rittal 7705235 carries an IP 55 protection rating to both EN 60529 and IEC 60529, achieved through the folded flange and foamed-in seal. The Hoffman AS250 Hol-Sealer is a painted galvanized steel hole seal and is specified by series rather than by a stated IP rating, so if your enclosure has to hold a documented IP 55 entry, the 7705235 is the part that states it.
