Eaton 5369 Arrow Hart straight-blade connector - cULus Listed
Part Number: 5369
Quick Summary
The Eaton Arrow Hart ultra grip straight blade connector is designed to secure #16-12 AWG conductors in industrial control panels. This minimizes incorrect wire terminations and reduces rework in high-mix, low-batch manufacturing environments. Key certifications include UL NOM, Federal Specification Classification 6221 02, and cULus Listed, ensuring safety and performance. From its nylon body to brass contacts, it resists heat, vibration, and contamination while maintaining reliable terminations. Back-wire compatibility and a compact 6.5 by 3.5 by 1.5 inch form simplify installation and inventory planning. Its two-pole, three-wire receptacle with grounding supports safer equipment, while the 0.33-0.66 inch cord range suits a range of industrial cables. Designed for back-wire screw terminations, this connector reduces field labor and ensures repeatable, code-compliant assemblies. Engineers value its rugged construction and proven Eaton durability on the factory floor.

FAQs
Begin by ensuring the wire insulation is stripped to the specified length and the conductor is clean. Insert the stripped wires into the back-wire terminals or screw lugs as indicated, then tighten to the recommended torque. Verify insulation clearance and conduct a continuity check to confirm a solid termination before powering the circuit.
The 5369 carries UL NOM Classification 6221-02 and is cULus Listed, with UL and Federal Specification references. These certifications demonstrate conformance to safety and performance standards for industrial wiring devices, helping you meet regulatory requirements and reduce risk during audits and inspections.
Yes. The receptacle is designed as two-pole, three-wire with grounding, providing a dedicated path to earth for fault conditions. This enhances protection for operators and equipment, supporting safer startup sequences and compliant enclosure wiring in control systems.
The connector is rated for 20A at 125V with back-wire termination. This makes it suitable for standard industrial control loads and machinery harnesses. When selecting, ensure your circuit load, wire gauge (#16-12 AWG), and environmental conditions fall within these ratings to maintain safe operation.
The 5369 reduces field wiring time with back-wire and screw-term compatibility, lowering labor costs and commissioning time. Its durable nylon body and brass contacts resist wear in vibration-heavy facilities, reducing replacement frequency and downtime—yielding measurable savings over the lifecycle of control panels and industrial equipment.
