Overview

The Woodhead MAX-LOC® 5522M Strain Relief Cord-Sealing Grip (SKU: 5522M) is a high-performance cable management solution engineered for demanding industrial environments. This straight male fitting features a 1/2" NPT threaded connection, ensuring compatibility with standard conduit systems and enclosures. The grip is constructed with a durable gray nylon body that provides excellent impact resistance and electrical insulation, while the stainless steel mesh reinforcement delivers superior tensile strength and corrosion resistance, even in harsh or corrosive conditions. Designed to secure cables with diameters ranging from 4.75mm to 6.35mm (0.187" to 0.250"), the 5522M includes a compression nut for precise cable retention and an integrated rubber grommet that forms a liquid-tight seal when properly installed. The included O-ring and locknut combination enables the assembly to achieve a NEMA 6P rating, providing exceptional protection against moisture, dust, and other environmental contaminants. The orange grommet is specifically color-coded for this cable diameter range, ensuring quick and accurate identification during installation or maintenance. This MAX-LOC® strain relief grip is ideal for use in industrial boxes, cabinets, pushbutton stations, control panels, and general enclosures where reliable cable strain relief is critical. Its design prevents cord pull-out and reduces mechanical stress on connections, extending the lifespan of both the cable and the equipment it serves. The rugged construction resists impact, vibration, and corrosion, making it suitable for outdoor, marine, or other extreme applications. Certified to UL File No. E76954 and CSA File No. LR32159, the 5522M meets stringent safety and performance standards. Manufactured in the USA, this product combines precision engineering with high-quality materials for dependable long-term performance in critical applications.
