PG13.5 is not 13.5 mm across. The number refers to nominal bore, so the thread measures 20.4 mm and needs a 20.4 to 20.6 mm hole. This guide covers the dimensions, the M20 confusion and how to identify an unknown thread.

M20 is the most mis-ordered cable gland thread in the world. This guide gives the published dimensions, the 20 to 20.2 mm hole, the 6 to 12 mm cable range and the thread length arithmetic, then compares M20 with M22, M25 and PG13.5.
