1. Product Description
The TXB-3-F is a fixed-lead, three-gang waterproof socket box for engineers who want to hard-wire three controlled outlets into equipment rather than rely on a loose plug. Made by Zhejiang Shuangyang Group (Soyang), this weatherproof strip houses three Schuko outlets under green IP44 flip lids in a black flame-retardant housing, and exits as a short rubber pigtail lead that you terminate on site. It is the standard choice for machine builders, bench fit-outs and permanent installations where a trailing extension cord would be in the way.

4. Materials & Finish
The enclosure is moulded from impact- and heat-resistant flame-retardant engineering plastic that withstands the bumps of machine mounting, and the green lids are made from a UV-stabilised polymer that keeps its colour outdoors. Inside, copper conductors deliver low-resistance current flow and the contacts are shaped for a firm, reliable grip. The oil- and weatherproof rubber fly-lead is finished with a strain-relief gland, protecting the wiring point from flex fatigue during installation and long service.

11. FAQ
Q: What does the -F suffix mean?
A: In the Soyang TXB range, -F means a fixed short pigtail lead with no attached plug. The TXB-3-F is delivered as a three-outlet weatherproof box that you wire into your own supply.
Q: How is it different from the TXB-3-D?
A: The TXB-3-D is a ready-to-use extension cord with a European plug on a long cable. The TXB-3-F is a hard-wired outlet box with a short fly-lead and no plug, intended for fixed machine or wall installations.
Q: Are the outlets weatherproof?
A: Each of the three Schuko outlets has a green spring-loaded flip lid rated IP44, protecting the contacts from dust and water spray. It is not intended for submersion.
Q: Can I mount the box on a machine?
A: Yes. Mounting ears at both ends let you bolt the strip to a machine frame, bench or wall, giving a professional, fixed installation.
Q: What lead length should I specify?
A: The family minimum lead is 1.4 m. Longer fly-leads and customer-specified terminations such as ferrules can be arranged for OEM projects.
Q: Do you support OEM branding?
A: Yes. We offer custom lead lengths, lid and housing colours, logo branding and tailored packaging, with flexible MOQs for brands and equipment makers.
