APPLETON PLUGS AND RECEPTACLES “TRUSTED CONNECTIONS.
“SUPPLYING POWER WHERE IT’S NEEDED.” The portable equipment used to build, repair, operate or maintain petrochemical plants, marine terminals, cell towers or even petroleum exploration equipment requires secure electrical connections. Achieving this safely requires Appleton plugs and receptacles. For over 100 years, we have given you the power to connect. Our single-minded goal is safety. We protect your personnel by designing plugs and receptacles with safe, reliable and secure connectivity.
PLUG AND RECEPTACLE CLASSIFICATIONS Whether you need to bring power to a trade show booth, a metal grinder in a shipyard or to an arc welder in the middle of the Gulf of Mexico, Appleton has a plug and receptacle to fit your exact need. Our U-Line® blade style devices build out our vast product line. The robust plug design permits portable equipment to be used safely in both hazardous and standard location environments.
POWERTITE® SERIES Our workhorse line, and the basis for many of our plug and receptacle product systems, is the Powertite® Series. Constructed of non-corrosive, copper-free aluminum, Powertite® plugs and receptacles are built for use in locations where exposure to the elements is inevitable. When certain applications require additional safety precautions, reverse service or contact rotation options are available.
U-LINE®/U-LINE® GFCI SERIES Bringing power to portable electrical devices should not bring hazards along with it. With U-Line® receptacles, you have safety in design and convenience in function. The factory sealed switched receptacle is explosionproof and designed to keep out moisture and dust. A simple twist of the plug produces an audible “click,” indicating that the receptacle is energized and the plug cannot be pulled out accidentally.
