KH INDUSTRIES

KH INDUSTRIES is a manufacturer of cord management and portable power distribution equipment, with a product line centered on self-retracting cord reels, extension cords, hand lamps, and power stringers. The brand is known for producing rugged, job-site-ready equipment designed for industrial, commercial, and hazardous-location environments. Their cord reels are available in both ratchet-lock and constant-tension configurations, with cord lengths ranging from 25 ft to 70 ft, and wire gauges of 12 AWG and 14 AWG, using SJOW or SOOW jacketing for durability. Many models offer hardwired bare-wire terminations or NEMA plug configurations such as 5-20P, 5-20R, and L14-20P, supporting voltages up to 600V AC. The hazardous-location hand lamps feature LED illumination with up to 1,700 lm output, 16.9 W power draw, and 120V AC input, with a 25 ft power cord. Power stringers provide nonlinkable multi-outlet boxes with 12/4 cable and L14-20P plugs for 125/250V AC applications. 3G Electric stocks over 80 SKUs from KH INDUSTRIES, including models with bare-wire ends for hardwired installations and those with NEMA connectors for plug-and-play use. The product range addresses common requirements in maintenance, construction, and facility operations where reliable, retractable cord management and temporary power distribution are needed. 3G Electric supports global logistics for these items, ensuring availability for plant engineers and procurement specialists specifying cord reels and portable power equipment for industrial settings.

Common Applications

  • Construction sites — KH INDUSTRIES ratchet-lock cord reels (e.g., RTAN3LW-WDD520-J12F) for temporary power distribution with locking length control.
  • Maintenance facilities — KH INDUSTRIES constant-tension cord reels (e.g., RTBB3LB-1GB520-J12K) for overhead retractable power drops.
  • Hazardous environments — KH INDUSTRIES LED hand lamps (e.g., HRD117C-SAAA01-B16F) for portable lighting in classified areas.
  • Industrial workshops — KH INDUSTRIES power stringers (e.g., PS6DD2-520-B12G-L1420D) for multi-outlet extension cords with locking plugs.
  • Warehouse operations — KH INDUSTRIES hardwired cord reels (e.g., RTBB3LB-WW-J12K) for fixed installation at loading docks or workstations.
  • Outdoor job sites — KH INDUSTRIES 70 ft cord reels (e.g., RTFJ3L-WW-B14O) for extended reach in open areas with 600V AC rating.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about KH INDUSTRIES from 3G Electric.

What types of cord reels does KH INDUSTRIES offer?

KH INDUSTRIES offers self-retracting cord reels in two primary operating mechanisms: ratchet lock and constant tension. Ratchet-lock models allow the user to lock the cord at any desired length, while constant-tension models maintain a steady retraction force. Cord lengths range from 25 ft to 70 ft, with wire gauges of 12 AWG or 14 AWG, and jacketing materials of SJOW or SOOW. Termination options include NEMA 5-20P, 5-20R, L14-20P plugs, or bare wire for hardwired installations. Voltage ratings go up to 600V AC depending on the model.

Are KH INDUSTRIES cord reels suitable for hazardous locations?

KH INDUSTRIES produces hazardous-location hand lamps, such as the HRD117C-SAAA01-B16F, which are rated for use in environments where flammable gases, vapors, or dust may be present. These hand lamps are LED-based, with 1,700 lm output, 16.9 W power, and 120V AC input, and include a 25 ft power cord. However, not all KH INDUSTRIES cord reels are explicitly rated for hazardous locations; check the specific model's certifications and markings for compliance with local codes.

What is the difference between ratchet-lock and constant-tension KH INDUSTRIES cord reels?

Ratchet-lock cord reels allow the user to pull the cord to a desired length and lock it in place with a ratchet mechanism; the cord retracts only when the lock is released. Constant-tension reels use a spring mechanism that applies continuous tension, automatically retracting the cord when not in use. Both types are available in similar cord lengths and gauges, but the choice depends on whether you need to hold the cord at a fixed length (ratchet lock) or prefer automatic retraction (constant tension).

What NEMA plug configurations are available on KH INDUSTRIES power stringers?

KH INDUSTRIES power stringers, such as the PS6DD2-520-B12G-L1420D, feature an L14-20P NEMA plug configuration, which is a locking 20-amp, 125/250V AC plug. The cable is 12/4 SJOW, and the unit includes two outlet boxes with four outlets total. These stringers are nonlinkable, meaning they are designed as standalone units rather than daisy-chained.

Can KH INDUSTRIES cord reels be hardwired directly to a power source?

Yes, several KH INDUSTRIES cord reels are available with bare-wire terminations on the feeder cord, allowing direct hardwiring to a junction box or panel. Models such as the RTBB3LB-WW-J12K and RTFJ3L-WW-B14O have bare-wire ends and are rated for 300V AC or 600V AC, respectively. These are suitable for permanent installations where a plug connection is not required.

What is the maximum cord length available for KH INDUSTRIES extension cord reels?

KH INDUSTRIES offers extension cord reels with cord lengths up to 70 ft, as seen in the RTFJ3L-WW-B14O model. Other common lengths include 25 ft, 30 ft, and 50 ft. The cord gauge and jacketing vary by model, with 12 AWG SJOW and 14 AWG SOOW being typical. Always verify the specific model's specifications for exact length and electrical ratings.
