We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Strain Relief",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Interfaces protect automotive wiring from
Harnessflex, which we summarised at the time by saying "The 90 degree interface is designed to allow conduit to switch through 360 degrees around the connector housing".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Catalogue gives access to 10,000-plus components from
Anixter Components: "New ranges include crimp-on terminals, cable markers, heat shrink tubing, cable and wire and adhesives and tapes".
In September 2007, we covered the news from Buttkereit
concerning its Icotek clamps and fixings
- take a look at Clamps provide cable grounding
which says: "Icotek clamps and fixings ensure effective bonding and grounding of EMC braided metal shielding after the cable's outer insulation has been stripped off".
Take a look also at the news release from ESAB, Wire feeders suit welding power sources,
as well as Power sources and wire feeders handle 16-300A from ESAB,
and Proximity probes survive 240C heat from Sensonics.
