Overview

The Woodhead MAX-LOC® Strain Relief Cord-Sealing Grip (SKU 5534) is a straight male, 1/2" NPT threaded strain relief designed for cables with a diameter range of 14.27–15.88mm (0.562–0.625"). This industrial-grade grip features a rugged nylon body and a rubber grommet for liquid-tight sealing, preventing moisture, dust, and contaminants from entering enclosures. The integrated grommet reduces cord pull-out forces, ensuring secure cable retention in demanding environments. When paired with the correct NPT-sized O-ring and locknut, the assembly meets NEMA 6P liquid-tight requirements. The gray nylon cord grip body and white nylon washer provide impact and corrosion resistance, while the rubber grommet offers chemical resistance and operates across a wide temperature range. Optional stainless steel or non-metallic mesh inserts are available for enhanced strength, corrosion resistance, or conductivity as needed. Compatible with standard industrial conduit systems, this MAX-LOC® grip is ideal for manufacturing, automation, and commercial building electrical installations where cable integrity and system uptime are critical.
