Overview

The ABB 2536 Liquidtight Strain Relief Cord Connector is a heavy-duty industrial component engineered for secure cable management in demanding environments. Manufactured by ABB - Installation Products, this connector features a robust malleable iron construction that delivers superior mechanical strength and corrosion resistance compared to standard steel or plastic alternatives. Designed for straight cable entry and exit points, the 2536 accommodates cable diameters between 0.750 and 0.880 inches, providing a tight, vibration-resistant seal that prevents moisture, dust, and contaminants from compromising electrical connections. E-13938 and CSA File No. 52391 certifications. The straight configuration simplifies installation in tight spaces while maintaining reliable strain relief for both armored and unarmored cables, including types S, SO, SV, ST, STD, SJ, SJO, SJT, SJTO, and SVD. Key applications include: - Secure cable entry into control panels and junction boxes - Protection of flexible cords in manufacturing and automation systems - Moisture-resistant termination for outdoor electrical installations - Grounding continuity for armored cable systems The malleable iron body resists deformation under mechanical stress, while the neoprene bushing provides additional vibration damping and sealing. This connector is part of ABB's industrial installation product line, designed for professional-grade performance in harsh operating conditions where electrical system integrity is critical.
