Abstract: A cable strain relief is provided that includes a cable retention member and a cable support member matable with one another. The cable retention member has a retention body and at least one ribbed arm. The cable retention member also includes a cable grip configured to engage a cable. The cable support member has a support body that is configured to receive a cable along a cable retention passage therethrough. The channel in the cable support member frictionally receives and retains the arm on the cable retention member when the cable retention and support members are joined with one another. The cable grip is configured to securely engage at least a jacket of the cable to resist movement of the cable with respect to the cable support and retention members. Alternatively, different structures and positions for the cable grip may be provided. The cable grip may include a punch-out pattern of teeth in the retention body of the cable retention member.

Abstract: In accordance with at least one embodiment, a cable strain relief is provided that comprises a cable retention member and a cable support member matable with one another. The cable retention member has a retention body and at least one ribbed arm. The cable retention member also includes a cable grip configured to engage a cable. The cable support member has a support body that is configured to receive a cable along a cable retention passage therethrough. The channel in the cable support member frictionally receives and retains the arm on the cable retention member when the cable retention and support members are joined with one another. The cable grip is configured to securely engage at least a jacket of the cable to resist movement of the cable with respect to the cable support and retention members. Alternative embodiments of the present invention use different structures and positions for the cable grip.

Abstract: A robust, nontoxic, antifouling coating and bulk material and process for king the same are disclosed. The antifouling coating comprises a basecoat formed typically from a polyol and a poiyiisocyanate wherein a molar excess of poiyiisocyanate is typically used. A topcoat is formed on the basecoat by reacting the basecoat with aliphatic branched or unbranched mono-alcohol or polyol.

Abstract: Disclosed are sealant compositions and electrical connectors having excellent low temperature repairability and outstanding sealing ability at both high and low temperatures. The preferred connectors contain a sealant composition comprising an elastomeric thermoplastic polymer and an extender for said polymer, said extender constituting a major proportion by weight of said sealant composition and said polymer constituting a minor proportion by weight of said sealant composition, wherein said composition preferably has a low-temperature wire insertability of at least about 80 mm. Furthermore, the preferred compositions are both slump and spew resistant over the operating temperature range of the connector.
