Overview

The Woodhead MAX-LOC® Strain Relief Cord-Sealing Grip (SKU: 5522W) is a rugged, liquid-tight strain relief solution designed for industrial electrical enclosures, control panels, and junction boxes. This straight male threaded grip features a 1/2" NPT connection and accommodates cables with diameters ranging from 4.75mm to 6.35mm (0.187" to 0.250"). The integrated O-ring and rubber grommet deliver a Type 6P/NEMA 6P environmental seal when paired with a locknut, protecting against moisture, dust, and contaminants in harsh operating conditions. Constructed from durable nylon with a zinc-plated steel nut and neoprene O-ring, the 5522W resists impact, corrosion, and a wide temperature range while maintaining chemical resistance. The flexible rubber grommet not only provides a liquid-tight seal but also significantly reduces cord pull-out stress, extending cable and equipment lifespan. This model is ideal for medium-gauge electrical cords in manufacturing, automation, heavy machinery, and general industrial applications. Key specifications include: IP6P environmental rating (with locknut), 1/2" NPT straight male thread, cable diameter range of 4.75–6.35mm, and a white nylon body with orange grommet. The MAX-LOC® system ensures reliable strain relief, minimizing downtime by preventing cable connection failures in demanding environments. Trusted by industrial professionals, this grip is a critical component for maintaining electrical system integrity in challenging settings.
