Cable and Electrical Thread
The cable or electrical thread is primarily used in electrical installations and is optimally adapted to the specific conditions of this working environment. It should not be confused with the Edison thread, which is also colloquially referred to as an electrical thread due to its use in light bulb sockets. The cable and electrical thread, however, is mainly used for cable glands, conduit fittings, and similar components.
Everything you need to know about the electrical and cable thread
Electrical installations require specific safety and protection measures to eliminate risks associated with electricity. Therefore, DIN standards define special thread dimensions for this area. These can be found in DIN EN 60423, which standardizes outer diameters and threads for electrical installation conduits.
The cable and electrical thread is a metric thread with a 60° flank angle. Its pitch is given in millimeters and has some unique characteristics. In nine of the 14 dimensions listed in the standard, the pitch is consistently 1.5 mm. The specified diameters range from 6 mm to 110 mm. The designation consists of the letter E, the outer diameter, and the pitch, for example: E 16 x 1.5.
Electrical and cable thread – Our product range
At BAER, you’ll find taps and dies for processing or repairing electrical and cable threads. All our tools are precisely manufactured to standard and allow for maximum precision in this sensitive field.

Our forming taps for electrical and cable threads offer great flexibility. They cut the thread in a single operation and can be used in a stationary machine or manually with a tap wrench. This allows you to match the tool to your preferred working method and application.
Our Form D taps with straight flutes are suitable for through and blind holes, provided the thread depth does not exceed four times the diameter. Ground HSS steel ensures precise results and smooth handling.
Dies
External threads can also be cut using BAER tools for electrical and cable threads. Our dies are made of high-quality HSS and suitable for a wide variety of materials. They can be used manually with a die holder or clamped into a machine as needed.
