The Lex Products EGME16/7-100-SX is a 100FT, 16AWG 10A molded 7-Pin Socapex Male to 7-Pin Socapex Female extension cable designed for critical motor and hoist operations in entertainment rigging and scenery conveyance applications. Part of the PowerFLEX Cable Assemblies series, this extension cable incorporates Lex Products' award-winning EverGrip overmold technology, which provides enhanced safety, durability, and strain relief, making it ideal for demanding environments where reliability and longevity are crucial. This extension cable is designed to connect power distribution boxes to hoist control motors, ensuring efficient and safe operation in live-event settings, theaters, and other professional entertainment venues.
At the heart of the EGME16/7-100-SX are the EverGrip connectors, which feature a two-part molding process that prevents internal damage and absorbs impact, protecting the internal conductors. The connectors are overmolded with oil-resistant thermoplastic elastomer material, providing an insulated, secure gripping surface for easy mating and unmating. The locking ring is overmolded to resist impact and offer a firm, secure connection when connecting or disconnecting the cable, while the molded strain relief helps to extend the cable's life by preventing stress on the connectors and terminations.
The connectors themselves are designed with a proprietary construction that prevents the pins and contacts from pushing back into the housing, ensuring long-term, reliable use. The male and female interiors are encapsulated in thermoplastic material, which prevents spinning and eliminates the possibility of unmateable or mismatched connections. This encapsulation also serves to protect the conductors from short circuits caused by stray wires, making the EGME16/7-100-SX an incredibly safe and dependable solution for motor control applications.
Constructed with #16/7 Type SOOW cable, the EGME16/7-100-SX features a rugged and flexible cord that is oil-resistant and designed to withstand harsh conditions. The wire mesh bus drop cable grip is an essential feature, as it prevents stress on the cable and transfers any external forces away from the connectors, further increasing the longevity of the cable. Additionally, the cable's thermoplastic jacket offers excellent durability and impact resistance, ensuring the cable can withstand the rigors of entertainment rigging and motor control environments.
With a 10A, 250VAC rating, the EGME16/7-100-SX is designed to handle significant power loads, making it ideal for high-performance applications such as connecting hoists, motors, and other motor control systems. The cable's compatibility with Socapex 7-pin motor control connectors ensures that it integrates seamlessly with standard setups, providing ease of use and reliability during installations and operation. With custom labeling and color-coding options, this extension cable is an excellent choice for professional rigging, theater, and entertainment control systems where safety, flexibility, and durability are paramount.
