Blue Sea Systems CableClam Cable Feed-Thru, 0.83 Inch Opening, Part Number 1002
The Blue Sea Systems CableClam, part number 1002, is a waterproof deck fitting designed to route coaxial cable through a bulkhead or deck while sealing out water intrusion. It is built for feeding antenna cable, such as VHF or satellite antenna coax, from an exterior mount down into the vessel's interior without drilling a hole large enough to compromise the deck's watertight integrity. The clamp-style body closes around the cable after it has been run, so the cable does not need a connector removed to pass it through, and the fitting seals around the cable jacket once tightened.
The CableClam features a ring made from UV-stabilized thermoplastic for long-term exposure to sun and weather, paired with a UV-stabilized Buna-N rubber seal that grips the cable and blocks moisture. The housing is finished in black nylon. This is the base 1002 configuration with a 0.83 inch opening sized for standard antenna coax; a separate part number, 1002100, is the same fitting supplied with an added 316 stainless steel dress cap for buyers who want the mounting hardware concealed to match other deck hardware.
