Overview

The Woodhead MAX-LOC® Strain Relief Cord-Sealing Grip (SKU: 5554MSS) is a rugged, industrial-grade strain relief solution designed for cables with diameters between 17.45mm and 20.62mm (0.687" to 0.812"). This product features a durable stainless steel mesh collar and a zinc-plated steel compression nut, providing exceptional strength and corrosion resistance in harsh environments. The 1" NPT straight male thread ensures a secure connection to enclosures, electrical boxes, and machinery, while the integrated neoprene dust seal gasket delivers a tight, reliable seal to prevent ingress of dust, debris, and moisture. The MAX-LOC® 5554MSS is constructed with a thermoplastic bushing that protects conductors from abrasion and stress, reducing the risk of cable damage and maintaining electrical integrity over time. Its single-weave mesh design enhances flexibility while maintaining structural integrity, allowing for smooth cable entry and exit without compromising the seal. The product is rated for wet locations and is suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations, including marine and food processing environments. This strain relief grip is part of Woodhead’s MAX-LOC® line, known for its rugged construction and superior performance in industrial settings. It is UL-listed (File No. E76954) and CSA-certified (File No. LR32159), meeting Class I, Division 2; Class II, Division 1 and 2; and Class III, Division 1 and 2 hazardous location ratings. The product is ideal for applications in manufacturing, automation, machine tools, bus drop systems, and control panels where environmental protection and cable longevity are critical. Installation is straightforward, requiring only standard tools, and the compression nut ensures a secure fit that resists pull-out forces, reducing maintenance costs and extending cable lifespan.
