  • Strain and Flex Relief for I/O Interconnects
    and the cable. Strain relief and flex relief are terms that are frequently interchanged and mis-used. Wire and cable manufacturers can contribute to flex relief by developing high flex designs, but they cannot contribute to strain relief at the contact and wire termination area or flex relief at the cable
  • What is a Strain Relief?
    Strain reliefs or strain relief bushings, like their moniker suggests, offer support and relieve strain to areas of cables that are prone to cracking or breaking due to frequent movement.
  • What is Strain Relief?
    Strain reliefs or strain relief bushings, like their moniker suggests, offer support and relieve strain to areas of cables that are prone to cracking or breaking due to frequent movement. Effective strain reliefs prevent any electrical loads applied to the cable from being transferred to conductor
  • Overmolding Connector and Cable Assemblies
    providing surfaces that can be held onto while using gloves. The molding process insures bonding to connector back-shells and over the cable to provide ingress protection from water and dust providing IP67 & IP68 sealing. In addition, overmolded designs provide strain or bend relief that protects
  • Overmolding Circular Connectors in Cable Assemblies
    as insulation has been extruded onto copper conductors, first in rubber with transfer molding (still used in many industrial applications), and then with injection molding of thermoplastic materials such as PVC beginning in the 1950s. Overmolding is an effective means of providing strain relief
  • High-flex Ethernet Cables: Applications & Overview
    thickness, thick and hard outer jackets, strain relief members built in, and other protections for the delicate copper wiring often carrying gigabits of data worth of busy electrons. Generally, all of these protection measures do enhance the ruggedness of these cables, but also often result in much
  • Low Outgassing Accelerometers and Cables for Thermal Vacuum and Vibration Test Environments
    and cables prior to vibration testing. Accelerometer designs with hermetic housings and connectors can have low outgassing qualities. For all non-metallic materials outside of a hermetic package, such as cables with polymer strain relief that do not typically have low outgassing qualities, verification
  • Custom Cable Connectors for Assembly Line Robot Application
    A 'big 3' car maker uses welding robots on their production and assembly lines. But traditional connection methods using strain relief connectors with wire mesh grips were not working.
  • Everything You Need to Know About Cord Grips
    Cord grips (which are also known as cable glands, connectors, strain relief, or fittings) are devices that attach and secure heavy-duty cables to equipment. They can seal around single or multiple wires or cables - armored or unarmored.
