1. Product Description
The TXB-2K-F is a switched, weatherproof 2-gang socket box supplied with a fixed short rubber pigtail lead instead of a mains plug, designed for contractors and OEMs who want to hard-wire the outlet into a machine, bench or fixed installation. Built by Zhejiang Shuangyang Group (Soyang), this switched socket strip pairs a tough black housing, bright yellow IP44 flip-lid covers and an orange master push-button switch with a fly-lead that you terminate on site. It is the right choice when you need two controllable, splash-proof outlets but do not want a standard plug trailing across the floor.

4. Materials & Finish
The box is moulded from impact- and heat-resistant flame-retardant engineering plastic that keeps its shape under daily workshop use, while the high-visibility yellow lids make the outlets quick to spot on a dark machine. Internally, copper conductors deliver low-resistance current flow and the contacts are designed for repeated plug insertion. The rubber fly-lead is oil- and UV-resistant and finished with a strain-relief gland, so the wiring point stays secure even where the cable is flexed or pulled during installation.

11. FAQ
Q: What does the -F suffix mean?
A: In the Soyang range, -F denotes a fixed short pigtail lead with no plug attached. The TXB-2K-F arrives as a switched, two-outlet weatherproof box that you wire into your own supply point.
Q: How is this different from the TXB-2K-D?
A: The TXB-2K-D is a ready-to-plug extension cord with a European plug on a long flexible cable, while the TXB-2K-F is a hard-wired outlet box with a short fly-lead and no plug, intended for fixed installations.
Q: Does it have a switch?
A: Yes. An orange master push-button switch on the face of the box cuts power to both outlets at once, giving you a simple local isolation point.
Q: Is it weatherproof?
A: Each outlet has a yellow spring-loaded flip lid rated IP44, protecting the contacts from dust and water spray. It is not submersible.
Q: What lead length should I order?
A: The family standard lead starts at 1.4 m. Longer fly-leads, ferrules or bare-end terminations can be specified for your installation.
Q: Can you brand it for our equipment?
A: Yes. We offer OEM branding, custom lid and housing colours, and tailored packaging. Minimum order quantities are flexible and can be agreed during sampling.
