Harsh Environment Nano M8 Cords



Send signal and power to low-current devices with M8 connections near welding, metal machining, and in spots where temperatures change. These cords stand up to chemicals, oil, weld slag, and other tough industrial stresses thanks to a layer of TPE. They’re flame rated FT4, so they meet requirements for preventing the spread of flames. Also known as pico cords, M8 cords are often used with 8 mm and smaller proximity switches and photoelectric switches. These cords are good for robotics and other jobs with continuous motion because TPE bends easily.
All are rated IP66K and IP67 when mated for protection against dust, temporary submersion, and high-pressure washdowns. UL and C-UL listed, they meet American and Canadian safety standards.
