Overview

The Woodhead MAX-LOC® Strain Relief Cord-Sealing Grip, SKU 5526M, provides robust cable protection and strain relief for industrial applications. This straight male connector features a 1/2" NPT threaded body and is constructed with a durable stainless steel mesh, offering superior strength and corrosion resistance. It is specifically designed for cables with a diameter range of 7.93mm to 9.53mm (0.312" to 0.375"). The MAX-LOC® series is engineered for demanding environments, ensuring a liquid-tight seal (NEMA 6P when used with the correct NPT-sized O-ring) to protect against moisture and dust ingress. The stainless steel mesh construction, utilizing a half double and half single weave, enhances cable protection and pull-out resistance. This grip is suitable for use in enclosures rated for wet locations (NEMA 4) when a gasket is properly placed between the fitting and the box. It also carries hazardous location ratings for Class I, Division 2; Class II, Division 1 and 2; and Class III, Division 1 and 2. Key features include a rugged construction suitable for boxes, cabinets, and general use enclosures. The rubber grommet provides a secure seal and reduces cord pull-out, while being resistant to chemicals and handling a wide temperature range. The stainless steel mesh offers high strength and corrosion resistance. This strain relief grip is manufactured in the USA and is UL File No. E76954 and CSA File No. LR32159 certified. Ideal for manufacturing, automation, and industrial machinery where cable integrity and environmental sealing are critical.
