Hazardous-Location Cord Connector
The Appleton 2016A2F0505 is a straight, nickel-plated brass cord connector rated for hazardous locations. It accepts unarmoured cable with a diameter range of .13 in to .34 in and terminates in a 1/2 in MNPT box connection. The silver body measures 4.000 in length and weighs .17 lb. No external strain relief is fitted.
Simple Threaded Installation
Installation consists of threading the 1/2 in MNPT end into a compatible enclosure and clamping the cable through the gland. The absence of external strain relief means the cable must be secured inside the box to prevent pull-out. Ensure the cable diameter falls within the .13 to .34 in range so the gland seals correctly.
For Industrial Hazardous-Area Wiring
This connector suits electricians and maintenance teams running single unarmoured cables into classified enclosures. It is not intended for armoured cable, multi-cord entries, or applications that require an insulated throat or colour-coded gland identification. Builders needing those features should look elsewhere.
