Antique Replica Electrical Plug - Long neck decagon design for Antique Lamps, Fans, etc, cord rewiring
Polarized 2-prong plug
Black, Brown, White, Ivory, or Red - Great with Cloth Wire
These vintage polarized 2 prong plugs add the perfect finishing touch to your lamp rewire, lighting creation, fan, radio or other small appliance refurbish project. They work great with our rayon and cotton fabric covered cord, and can be added to any order with no additional shipping!!!
A truly classic design, they are a vintage style hard plastic bakelite type housing with screw-on top and screw post wire connecting terminals for strength and security. These vintage polarized 2 prong plugs are extremely easy to work with: simply unscrew the top to remove it from the base, connect your wires to the screw terminals inside, then screw the top back onto the base. Done!
Also, these Bakelite replica plugs are a great option if you are looking for a 2-prong polarized plug, vs an unpolarized plug. These Bakelite replica plugs have one blade larger than the other, and fit into an outlet only one way, so you have a dedicated hot/neutral designation (the larger blade with silver terminal screw is "neutral", the thinner blade with brass terminal screw is "hot")
This listing is for the vintage polarized 2 prong plug only (a quantity of 1 = 1 plug!!! Wire shown as an example, can be purchased separately!!!)

Authentic looking, but safer
Easy to install, being polarized, it's safer than the original plugs. I'll be putting these on all my restorations.

Octagonal antique polarized plug
Very nice long neck octagonal plug. Easy to use and looks great on an industrial pipe lamp I built. Long neck ensures that plug can be unplugged without putting strain on the cord.

Decent Plug
The plug looks great and allows you to have a polarized plug and keep the vintage look. The way the plug is molded gives a nice grip to plug and un-plug from the outlet. The only gripe I have is that the hollow area is not very big and it can take a few tries to get everything to settle in nicely. Really not a big issue, but if you're planning on using some kind of strain relief be aware it probably won't fit.

ANTIQUE REPLICA DECAGON LONG NECK PLUG
Great plug which due to its design will keep folks from pulling the wire to remove from a receptacle.I can not wait to match the red plug with an inline red switch on ? wire. Paul the owner is a great guy who is patient and very helpful. His orders are filled quickly and are shipped quickly.

Good quality plug
This bakelite plug feels sturdy and offers a collar to grip the plug which makes for a safe removal from the outlet. It is a great looking vintage plug and in my opinion a better choice than the acorn style because of the collar. I did find that it took a few attempts to get the terminals really tight, and my normal plan to tie a knot in the wire to prevent it from being pulled through the plug didn't work because there isn't enough clearance inside the plug. But overall it feels solid and with the collar the added security of a knot may not be necessary. The package was very well packed but was slow getting here due to well publicized USPS shipping delays, which is not the fault of the vendor.
