Abrasion-Resistant Extension Cords for Harsh Environments
Run these cords through high-traffic areas in dirty and greasy environments. They have a thick insulation that resists water, oil, and chemicals, and protects against abrasion.
SOOW cords have both an outer and inner insulation that resists oil, making them more durable than SEOW cords, which only have an outer insulation. SOOW cords also have impact-resistant connectors.

Turn-Lock Extension Cords for Harsh Environments
These cords have an oil- and water-resistant insulation and impact-resistant connectors for protection in harsh environments. Give the connectors a quarter turn to lock in place; they remaining secure in high-vibration applications.

Safety Start-Up Power Cords
After shutting off power to equipment during a power failure, these cords must be manually reset, preventing unexpected equipment start-up. Use them to replace three-wire power cords on equipment driven by small single-phase motors. The industry designation is SJTO, so the insulation resists oil.

Mini Connectors
Often used to send power and signal to automated systems, motors, and pumps, these mini connectors carry higher currents than M5, M8, and M12 connectors. A threaded housing securely mates with other mini connectors and won’t come loose from shaking or vibration. They have a standard pole layout and housing thread size to reduce the chance you’ll mis-mate connectors.
Connectors with a 0.87" face diameter have the highest current ratings, so you can use them for heavier duty industrial machinery such as cooling fans, grinders, and conveyor systems. The plugs and sockets have a rubber cable outer insulation, which resists oil, water, and weld slag. This makes them a good choice for wet and harsh industrial environments.
When mated, these connectors meet IP or NEMA ratings. IP68 and NEMA 6P rated connectors protect against dust, submersion, washdowns, and weather.
Caps protect connectors and maintain their IP and NEMA ratings when not in use.
Thread adapters connect plugs and sockets that both have internal threads.
