1. Product Description
The TXB-6K-F is a switched six-outlet waterproof socket strip built for the harshest working environments. From Soyang (Zhejiang Shuangyang Group), it pairs a rugged black housing, six bright yellow flip-lid French outlets and a prominent orange push-button master switch with a fixed short rubber cable lead for permanent machine or wall wiring.
The high-visibility yellow lids make each covered outlet easy to spot on busy sites, and the large orange switch isolates the whole strip in one press. As a heavy-duty extension socket with switch on a short lead, the TXB-6K-F is designed to be bolted to benches, frames or walls wherever you want weatherproof, controllable six-way power.

Inside, nickel-plated brass contacts hold each French earth pin and line pins firmly, and the switch is rated for repeated daily use. The fixed rubber lead follows the same H05RR-F/H07RN-F oil-resistant cable family Soyang uses across its industrial range; exact gauge and lead length are confirmed on order.
