Overview

The Woodhead MAX-LOC® Strain Relief Cord-Sealing Grip, identified by SKU 5553, is a robust 90° angle male connector engineered for secure and reliable cable management in demanding industrial applications. This connector features a 1" NPT threaded connection, providing a strong and dependable mechanical bond to enclosures, junction boxes, and control panels. This secure connection is critical for maintaining enclosure integrity, effectively preventing the ingress of dust, moisture, and other contaminants. The integrated rubber grommet is a key component of the MAX-LOC® system, delivering a liquid-tight seal. This seal is rated as Type 3R when installed without an O-ring and locknut, and achieves a Type 6P rating when used with appropriate accessories. Beyond sealing, the grommet plays a vital role in reducing cord pull-out, a frequent cause of failure in cable installations, thereby enhancing the overall longevity and reliability of the electrical connection. Constructed with a durable nylon body, the MAX-LOC® grip offers excellent resistance to impact and corrosion, ensuring its performance in harsh environments. The versatile design of the grommet accommodates a cable diameter range of 15.88mm to 19.05mm (0.625" to 0.750"), making it suitable for a wide array of applications including control panels, industrial machinery, and outdoor equipment. The 90° angle design of this connector is specifically engineered to optimize space-saving cable routing. This configuration also effectively prevents the formation of sharp bends in the cable, which can lead to conductor damage and premature failure. The MAX-LOC® system, including this specific grip, is certified by UL File No. E76954 and CSA File No. LR32159, confirming its adherence to stringent safety and performance standards. Woodhead, a brand by Molex, offers this product as a dependable and long-lasting strain relief solution for critical and demanding applications.
