Pipe & Tank In-Pipe Freeze Protection Kit with Cable Entry Gland (CEG)
1 / of9
Overview
Create a sealed heating-cable entry closer to the area that freezes.
This kit combines a CSA-certified self-regulating in-pipe heating cable with a Cable Entry Gland. It creates a sealed cable-entry point through a compatible pipe wall, cleanout cap, tank wall, or flat surface so the heating cable can be routed inside.
Low-Static-Head UseFor compatible low-static-head pipes, tanks, drains, and containment applications.
Round Pipe EntryDirect pipe-wall entry requires a round pipe at least 2 in in diameter and a compatible curved washer fit.
3 Entry OptionsRound pipe wall, cleanout cap, or tank and flat-surface entry.
CSA-Certified CableCompatible self-regulating in-pipe heating cable is included.
Before Ordering
Your application is low-static-headThe mounting surface is smooth, rigid, and structurally soundWall thickness is approx. 1/8–1 in / 3–25.4 mmThere is enough internal clearance for the retaining plateThe heating cable can reach the freeze-prone sectionThe supplied washer matches the planned mounting surface
Round pipe fit: The supplied curved washers are identified for 2 in and 3–4 in round pipe applications. The pipe-wall entry requires at least a 2 in round pipe. Confirm washer fit before drilling.
What’s Included
IncludedSelected in-pipe heating cable, complete Cable Entry Gland assembly, curved and flat washers, 25 mm / approx. 1 in hole saw, temporary closure plug, installation manual, and spare mounting parts.
Sold SeparatelyPipe or tank insulation and an external thermostat or temperature controller are not included.
Not for pressurized plumbing. Do not install the Cable Entry Gland on municipal water pressure lines, pressurized household plumbing, pressure vessels, gas piping, fuel tanks, or high-pressure equipment.
Sump pump discharge lines: This kit can be used where the installation remains within the product's low-static-head application limits. Do not treat the Cable Entry Gland as a pressure-rated plumbing fitting.
Self-regulating does not mean automatic shutoff. Heat output changes with temperature, but the cable remains energized while connected to power. Add a compatible external thermostat when automatic temperature-based on/off control is needed.
Create an entry directly through a suitable round pipe wall when the freeze-prone section is not near an existing access point.

Basic Installation Sequence
Choose the entry location. Select a smooth, rigid area with enough sealing surface around the hole.
Drill the entry hole. Use the included 25 mm / approx. 1 in Hole Saw (J). Keep the drill as perpendicular to the surface as possible.
Deburr the hole. Remove sharp edges, plastic debris, and metal shavings from both sides.
Select the washer. Use Curved Rubber Washer (B) for a compatible round pipe. Use Flat Rubber Washer (B') for cleanout caps, tank walls, and flat surfaces.
Insert the A-D-E Assembly. Insert the pre-assembled flange base, screw, and retaining plate through the entry hole.
Secure the retaining plate. Use two screwdrivers. One stabilizes the Crescent Retaining Plate (E) while the other tightens the mounting screw. Install the second screw and alternately tighten both.
Install the outlet fitting. Seat Flange Sealing Gasket (C), then install Flange Cable Outlet Fitting (F).
Prepare the cable. Slide Compression Nut (G) and Fitting Gasket (H) onto the cable before routing it through the entry assembly.
Route the heating cable. Feed it slowly toward the intended freeze-prone section.
Complete the cable seal. Install Silicone Sealing Plug (I), position H, and hand-tighten G until properly seated.
Leak-check before power. Inspect the mounting flange and cable entry for moisture or leakage before energizing the heating cable.
Never completely remove both mounting screws at the same time. Keep at least one screw partially engaged with the Crescent Retaining Plate (E) so the plate cannot fall inside the pipe, tank, or containment structure.
Long Pipe Runs
Use a Pulling Line When NeededIf the cable cannot be positioned by hand, feed fish tape or a strong pulling line from the far end toward the cable-entry location. Attach it to the heating cable and pull slowly while guiding the cable.
Do Not Damage the CableDo not use sharp wire, sharp hooks, or tools that can cut, scrape, puncture, crush, or heavily kink the heating cable jacket. Do not force the cable through resistance.
Final check: Keep all gaskets correctly seated and do not overtighten plastic components. Check the completed installation for leakage before connecting power.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use this kit on a sump pump discharge line?
Yes, when the selected installation remains within the product's low-static-head application limits. The Cable Entry Gland can create a cable-entry point closer to the freeze-prone section of the discharge line. It is not a pressure-rated plumbing fitting.
Can I install it directly through a round pipe wall?
Yes. Direct pipe-wall entry requires a round pipe at least 2 in in diameter. The supplied curved washers are identified for 2 in and 3–4 in round pipe applications. Confirm washer fit, wall thickness, surface condition, and internal clearance before drilling.
Can I install it through a cleanout cap or tank wall?
Yes. Use the Flat Rubber Washer on a suitable cleanout cap, tank wall, inspection port, or other smooth flat surface. The mounting area must be rigid, structurally sound, and capable of supporting gasket compression.
Can this kit be used on a pressurized household water line?
No. The Cable Entry Gland is intended for low-static-head applications only. Do not use it on municipal water pressure lines, pressurized household plumbing, pressure vessels, gas piping, fuel tanks, or high-pressure equipment.
Is the included heating cable CSA certified?
Yes. The self-regulating in-pipe heating cable supplied with this kit is CSA certified.
Is the hole saw included?
Yes. A 25 mm / approx. 1 in Hole Saw (J) is included for creating the required cable-entry hole. Do not enlarge, reshape, or modify the finished hole.
What happens if I remove the cable-entry assembly later?
The kit includes a Rubber Closure Plug (K) for temporarily closing the original cable-entry hole after the assembly and heating cable are removed. It is a temporary closure for compatible low-static-head applications, not a pressure-rated plumbing plug.
Can I use another heating cable with the Cable Entry Gland?
The sealing system is designed around the specified heating cable size and profile. Do not use another cable size or shape unless compatibility has been confirmed by YeloDeer.
Do I need insulation or a thermostat?
Neither is included. Insulation is recommended where appropriate to reduce heat loss. A compatible thermostat or temperature controller can provide automatic temperature-based on/off control when its voltage and electrical load requirements match the heating cable.
