It accepts cable bundles up to 0.925\" (23.50 mm) diameter and terminates with an M32x1.5 thread — the standard gland interface for this shell size. The black thermoplastic body includes a tie wrap holder for securing the cable against pull-out, and the unshielded design keeps the assembly weight low in harness applications where EMI protection is handled at the connector or cable level. ## Thread and Cable Opening — Fit Check The M32x1.5 thread mates with the corresponding gland nut on the AHDM size 18 connector back end. The 0.925\" (23.50 mm) cable opening clears a bundle of 20–22 AWG wires in a typical 18-position power circuit layout; for larger fills, confirm the packed diameter stays under 23.50 mm before the tie wrap cinches down. Molded from thermoplastic, the backshell carries a ROHS3 compliance rating. No gasket or seal is included in the base part — if the application requires an environmental seal at the backshell-to-connector interface, order the sealing gasket separately from the AHDM accessory range. The unshielded body is suited for indoor cabinet or protected harness runs; for shielded cable termination, use the shielded variant in the AHDM backshell family.","metaTitle":"AHDMBS-18-001 Backshell, Size 18, M32 Thread","metaDescription":"AHDMBS-18-001 Amphenol DuraMate backshell, shell size 18, M32x1.5 thread, 0.925\" cable opening, black thermoplastic, tie wrap holder.
