Overview

The Woodhead MAX-LOC® Strain Relief Cord-Sealing Grip (SKU 5530MSS) is a stainless steel mesh strain relief designed for 1/2" NPT threaded enclosures. It secures cables with diameters between 11.10mm and 12.70mm (.437-.500"), providing abrasion resistance and pull-out protection in industrial environments. The grip features a nylon body with a zinc-plated steel compression nut, a neoprene o-ring for liquid-tight sealing (NEMA 6P when paired with the correct NPT-sized o-ring), and a half-double/half-single weave stainless steel mesh collar for high tensile strength and corrosion resistance. UL-listed (File No. E76954) and CSA-certified (File No. LR32159), this strain relief is rated for wet locations and hazardous environments including Class I, Division 2; Class II, Divisions 1 & 2; and Class III, Divisions 1 & 2. The grommet is color-coded orange for easy identification. Ideal for manufacturing automation, control panels, machine tools, and harsh industrial settings like chemical plants and oil/gas facilities, the 5530MSS ensures reliable cable management with minimal maintenance. Installation requires only basic tools—no specialized equipment needed.
