Creating Custom Cord Grips That are Changing the Industry
Remke Industries is proud to share that our latest article entitled, “Five Things To Consider When Specifying Custom Cord Grips” was featured in the latest e-book by Connector Supplier.
The Importance of Custom Cord Grips
Our article, “Five Things To Consider When Specifying Custom Cord Grips,” is housed under the third section of the eBook, “Specification Tips: Custom Solutions.” In the article, we focus on the fact that we can customize cord grips to meet your unique application challenges for easier maintenance, installation, and reliability.
Read the EbookIn the article we share that when choosing customized cord grips, there are five main things to consider:
- Material Selection — This is more often application driven and depends on environment and application use, but can include diecast zinc, aluminum, nylon, steel, valox, and stainless steel.
- Wire Mesh Grips — Adding wire mesh can help support the weight of a cable that is vertical or sloping to prevent excessive strain and cable pullout.
- Custom Components and Cord Grip Add Ons — Part of the customization process is choosing from a variety of cord grip add-on options, including multiple hole bushings, o-rings, nickel-plating, anodizing, locknuts, and molded rubber cones.
- Special Threading Selection — There several different kinds of threading available to help create the perfect, reliable seal for your cord grip, including NPT, Pg, ISO (metric), and NPS.
- Custom Packaging and Kitting — Creating kits (or special bulk packaging) of connectors and components to your exact specifications means you can keep things quick and convenient.
