Overview

The Woodhead MAX-LOC® Strain Relief Cord-Sealing Grip (SKU: 5526NM) is a high-integrity cable management solution designed for industrial environments where cable protection and sealing are critical. This straight male fitting features a 1/2" NPT thread for secure enclosure mounting and accommodates cable diameters from 7.93mm to 9.53mm (.312" to .375"). The non-metallic mesh construction provides robust strain relief while maintaining electrical non-conductivity, making it ideal for sensitive applications. The unit combines a durable nylon body with a rubber grommet to deliver a liquid-tight seal that prevents moisture and contaminant ingress. The grommet is formulated to resist a wide temperature range and common industrial chemicals, ensuring reliable performance in harsh conditions. The integrated design significantly reduces the risk of cord pull-out under mechanical stress, enhancing system reliability. This MAX-LOC® grip is rated for NEMA Type 3R protection without an O-ring and Type 6P when used with the appropriate O-ring and locknut (sold separately). The color-coded grommet system enables quick cable diameter identification, streamlining installation and maintenance. With a UL File No. E76954 and CSA File No. LR32159 certification, this product meets rigorous safety standards for industrial applications. Applications include electrical boxes, cabinets, push-button stations, control panels, and general enclosure use where cable integrity must be maintained under vibration, flexing, or environmental exposure. The non-metallic mesh option provides corrosion resistance without electrical conductivity, making it suitable for both power and signal cables in mixed environments.
