Industrial Straight Blade Receptacle
The Bryant 5261 is a 15 A, 125 V AC single receptacle built for industrial environments. Its brown nylon body provides durable insulation and a flush-mount profile suited to panel or box installation. The device accepts back and side wiring for flexible termination in conduit or cable systems.
Upgrade From Standard Residential Outlets
This receptacle replaces basic duplex outlets when a dedicated single connection point is required for equipment drawing up to 15 A. The jump is worth it when code or safety practice calls for an industrial-grade device with a 1/2 hp motor rating and no tamper-resistant shutters to impede plug insertion.
Capacity And Headroom
The unit comfortably handles 15 A continuous loads at 125 V AC on a single-phase circuit, including fractional-horsepower motors up to 1/2 hp. It runs out when the application demands weather-resistant construction, surge suppression, corrosion-resistant hardware, or a power-indicator light, none of which this model provides.

Questions about this item
What size flush-mount opening does the 5261 need?
The 5261 is designed for standard flush-mount boxes; the 2-pole, 3-wire body fits a typical single-gang cut-out.
Which wiring method does the 5261 use and what is the common mistake?
It accepts back and side wiring; the frequent error is stripping too much insulation so bare copper extends past the terminal.
When should the brown nylon 5261 be replaced?
Replace it if the face cracks, terminals discolour from heat, or the 15 A 125 V rating no longer matches the circuit load.
