Designed for indoor applications, these cords are often used to power appliances. They have a 90° elbow plug that fits flush against a wall outlet, so they fit behind machinery or in areas where space is tight. The industry designation is SPT, so they have a flat cord shape.

SJEOW cords have an oil- and water-resistant insulation.

The insulation on SJTW cords resists water.

Use SJT cords in dry or damp locations.

Light Duty Power Cords

SPT

NEMA 1-15 Plug

Designed for indoor applications, these cords are often used to power appliances.

SPT cords have a flat cord shape so they fit in tight spaces. The numbers 1, 2, and 3 indicate the relative thickness of the insulation.

DisplayPort Cords

Often used to connect multiple monitors to a single computer, these cords send video and audio to a display device. Shielding blocks signal interference from nearby equipment and devices.

Crush-Resistant USB Cords

The insulation serves as a tough armor that protects these cords in high-traffic areas. Shielding blocks signal interference from nearby equipment and devices. They’re backward compatible, so they work with cords and connectors that meet the same or lower USB standard.

Cords with PVC armor are more lightweight than cords with stainless steel armor.

Stainless steel armor is more crush resistant than PVC armor.

Continuous-Flex Ethernet Cords

Often used in automated applications such as robotics, these cords withstand continuous motion without degrading data transmission. The shielding blocks signal interference from nearby equipment and devices. They send data between computers, printers, servers, and switches. For faster data transmission speeds, choose a cord with a higher industry designation category. They’re backward compatible, so they work in networks that meet the same or a lower category. All stand up to some abrasion.

Cords with polyurethane rubber insulation resist abrasion better and bend further than cords with PVC plastic insulation. You can use them indoors or outdoors, though you shouldn’t use them in harsh settings. They’re halogen free.
