TRIPP LITE Heavy-Duty Power Strip — 6 Right-Angle Outlets, Metal Case, 15 ft Cord, Mountable

TRIPP LITE TLM615NCRA is a rugged, metal-cased power strip with six right-angle outlets, a 15-foot cord, and mountable hardware built for workshops, garages, and heavy-duty workstation use. This compact, industrial-style power strip focuses on dependable power distribution where durability and space-saving outlet layout matter. The six right-angle NEMA 5-15R receptacles let bulky adapters sit flush without blocking neighboring plugs, while the long 15-foot cord reaches distant wall sockets. A metal enclosure and an integrated 15A circuit breaker deliver mechanical toughness and straightforward overload protection for tools, lighting, and appliances in demanding environments.

How does this power strip fit into a crowded workbench or equipment rack?

The right-angle outlet configuration is designed to keep large transformer blocks out of the way so you can use every socket. Mounting options let you secure the strip beneath a shelf, to a bench, or on a wall to free floor and tabletop space.

• Six right-angle NEMA 5-15R outlets preserve adjacent socket space for multiple plugs.
• Keyhole slots and metal flanges allow screwless or screwed mounting in many positions.
• 15-foot cord provides flexible placement relative to the nearest wall outlet.

What safety and protection features are built in?

The unit includes an integrated 15A circuit breaker to help prevent dangerous overloads and is UL certified for safety compliance. An illuminated on/off switch gives clear power status, and a transparent cover snaps over the switch to reduce accidental shutoffs from bumps or curious hands.

• Integrated 15A circuit breaker trips under overload conditions.
• UL certification confirms third-party safety testing and listing.
• Lighted power switch and snap-on transparent guard prevent unintended shutdowns.

Is this power strip suitable for industrial or garage environments?

Yes — the heavy-gauge metal housing resists impacts, abrasions, and typical workshop wear better than plastic strips. The sturdy construction and mounting options make it a reliable choice for garages, service benches, industrial workstations, and utility rooms where durability is essential.

• Rugged metal case withstands tougher handling than consumer plastic strips.
• Design supports use with power tools, diagnostic equipment, and shop lighting.
• Mountable top or bottom flanges let you position the strip out of harm's way.

How easy is it to install and use this model daily?

Installation is straightforward: hang on the wall or under a shelf using the keyhole slots or secure with screws using the metal flanges. Daily operation is simple — flip the illuminated rocker to feed all connected devices, and rely on the built-in breaker for basic overload protection.

• Keyhole slots and flanges cover multiple mounting preferences and surfaces.
• 15-foot cord reduces the need for additional extension cords and repositioning.
• One-touch illuminated switch gives immediate power control for all outlets.

Who is this for? The TRIPP LITE TLM615NCRA is ideal for technicians, makers, mechanics, and homeowners who need a compact, mountable, and durable power distribution solution. If you routinely use bulky adapters, require secure mounting under desks or on walls, or want a metal-bodied strip that tolerates tougher environments than consumer-grade products, this model offers a practical balance of durability, convenience, and basic electrical protection. It’s not a full-feature surge suppressor for sensitive electronics, but it’s built to deliver reliable, space-efficient power to tools and shop equipment where ruggedness matters most.
