Overview

The Woodhead MAX-LOC® Strain Relief Cord-Sealing Grip (SKU: 5551) is a rugged, liquid-tight sealing solution engineered for industrial cable protection in harsh environments. This 1" NPT, 90° angle male fitting secures cables with diameters between 14.27mm and 17.45mm (.562" to .687"), providing exceptional strain relief and environmental sealing. The nylon body resists impact, corrosion, and UV exposure, ensuring long-term durability in outdoor or industrial settings. The rubber grommet delivers a NEMA 6P-rated liquid-tight seal when paired with the correct O-ring (sold separately), preventing moisture, dust, and contaminants from entering enclosures. The grommet is color-coded gray for easy identification of cable size compatibility, reducing installation errors and improving efficiency. For applications requiring additional strength or conductivity, stainless steel or non-metallic mesh options are available, offering enhanced pull-out resistance and grounding capabilities. The stainless steel mesh option provides superior mechanical strength for high-vibration environments, while the non-metallic mesh is ideal for applications where electrical isolation is required. The 90° angle design optimizes cable routing in tight spaces, reducing bend radius stress and extending cable life. Ideal for manufacturing, automation, and control panel installations, this grip ensures reliable cable management by securing cables firmly in place, reducing pull-out forces, and minimizing maintenance costs in wet or hazardous locations. The 1" NPT male thread allows for easy installation into standard conduit systems or enclosures, while the integrated locknut (sold separately) ensures a secure, vibration-resistant connection. Compatible with NEMA 6P enclosures when used with the appropriate O-ring and locknut, this fitting meets stringent industry standards for environmental protection and safety. The MAX-LOC® design features a unique locking mechanism that prevents accidental disconnection, enhancing system reliability in critical applications.
