The invention relates to a cable gland (10) for a cable (20), comprising an outer shield (26), a cable sleeve (21) enclosing the outer shield (26) and an anti-kink grommet (22) which is injection molded externally onto the cable sleeve (21) and has stop means for the cable gland (10). Simple and reliable contact is achieved in that the cable gland (10) a) has a substantially hollow cylindrical electrically conductive cable gland body (11) which is pushed from one side as far as the stop means over the anti-kink grommet (22) and projects over the anti-kink grommet (22) with the end opposite the stop means, b) has a union nut (12) which can be screwed on the cable gland body (11) and is pushed from the other side as far as the stop means over the anti-kink grommet (22), and c) has an electrically conductive substantially hollow cylindrical contact ring (14) which can be pushed over the cable (20) in a contacting manner into the projecting end of the cable gland body (11) and is designed for receiving and fastening the outer shielding (26) of the cable (20) with contact.
