Material: EPDM Rubber
Color: Purple with Yellow Stripe

You don’t need a lot of force to bend this hose. The extra flexibility makes it good for offset connections and tight spaces. To connect fittings, insert the plug into the socket and push the levers down.

Continuous-Flex USB Cords

Often used in automated applications such as robotics, these cords withstand continuous motion without degrading data transmission. Shielding blocks signal interference from nearby equipment and devices. All are backward compatible, so they work with cords and connectors that meet the same or lower USB standard.

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 PVC plastic insulation are good for general purpose applications and often used indoors. They’re not as flexible as cords with polyurethane or TPE rubber insulation. They also contain halogen.

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.

Cords with TPE rubber insulation are more abrasion resistant and bend further before kinking than cords with PVC plastic or polyurethane rubber insulation. They also withstand chemicals. Choose them for harsh outdoor environments. These cords are halogen free.

Profibus Cords

Often used in assembly line networks and Fieldbus connections, these cords have B-coded M12 connections. The ends are threaded to withstand the vibration and shaking of an automated assembly line. Shielded with both braid and foil, these cords block interference from nearby devices, maintaining their signal integrity. PVC insulation protects these cords and resists abrasion, though it contains halogen. When mated or capped, these cords are IP67 rated, so they withstand dust and temporary submersion.

The socket end has an extra hole on the face that is not wired.

Add caps to protect connectors and maintain their IP ratings when not in use.

Through-Panel-Mount Connectors

Before making a permanent connection, use these connectors to test a circuit. Also known as binding posts, they mount through panels to create a connection point.

All connectors are insulated to prevent contact with panels.

Tin-plated brass lasts the longest. Single banana jacks come with your choice of a red jack or a black jack. Hand-held voltage ratings are the maximum tested voltage for applications where you hold a cord connected to the jack in your hands while testing. Hands-free voltage ratings are the maximum voltage the jack is rated to withstand.

Comfort-Fit Earplugs

These washable plugs are made of soft plastic. Slide them right into your ear without rolling. The ribbed shape adds grip that keeps plugs from backing out of your ear. When ordering multiple pairs, earplugs come individually packaged, except 25-dB earplugs with cord are packaged in bulk. Medium earplugs fit most men.

Earplugs that cannot be sold outside of the United States and Canada do not meet product labeling requirements.
