Overview

The ABB Installation Products Liquidtight Strain Relief Cord Connector (SKU: 2544) is a precision-engineered cable management solution designed for industrial environments where environmental sealing and strain relief are critical. Constructed from durable die-cast zinc, this straight-style connector provides robust protection against moisture, dust, oil, and other contaminants, ensuring long-term reliability in harsh operating conditions. Engineered for cords with diameters between 0.500 and 0.625 inches, this 1-inch trade size connector delivers a secure, non-slip grip that maintains grounding continuity for armored or unarmored cables. The liquidtight design features a neoprene bushing and tapered hub threads, creating a watertight seal that prevents ingress of liquids and particulates. This design is particularly effective in applications where cables are exposed to outdoor elements, industrial washdowns, or corrosive atmospheres. The connector's die-cast zinc construction offers inherent corrosion resistance and mechanical strength, contributing to extended service life in demanding applications. Its compact straight configuration allows for installation in tight spaces while providing superior strain relief to prevent cable damage from bending or pulling forces. Typical applications include: • Passing cords into enclosures, bulkheads, or rigid conduits • Securing flexible cords in manufacturing equipment • Providing grounding continuity for cable armor • Protecting cables in outdoor equipment or wet locations Compatible with standard conduit systems, this connector integrates seamlessly with existing industrial electrical infrastructure. The 1-inch size ensures compatibility with common conduit fittings and accessories, reducing installation complexity. For applications requiring different cable ranges or configurations, ABB offers a full line of liquidtight strain relief connectors in various sizes and materials to meet specific application requirements.
