Locking plugs and connectors are constructed with impact and
chemical-resistant nylon housings and feature an internal Triple Gripper
cord clamp that automatically centers and secures the cord. A
configuration-specific plug face surrounds plug blades to prevent
infiltration of contaminants. Extended “teardrop” wiring pockets and
backed-out captive terminal screws simplify wiring. Locking receptacles
are designed with back and side wiring terminals that accept 14 to 8
gauge solid or stranded conductor wires. Straight-blade devices are
available in 15 to 30 amp sizes. A universal cord grip design accepts
0.300-in. to 0.655-in. (7.6mm to 16.6mm) wire sizes. Available
high-visibility lockouts provide additional protection. The OSHA
lockout/tagout regulation compliant devices are designed to protect
against unexpected start-up of equipment during maintenance and repair
work. The lockouts are available in three sizes. Locking plugs start at
$6.25. Receptacle prices start at $4.75. Prices for straight-blade plugs
and connectors start at $6.25. Lockout prices start at $12.25.AutomationDirectwww.automationdirect.com800.633.0405
