Antique Replica Electrical Plug - Long neck decagon design, 2-prong polarized

Replacement cloth covered wire with vintage plug restored a pristine vintage toaster to usefulness. The toaster was just like the one my Grandmother had from the early 1950’s. The restored one has been in our household for nearly 45 years and used regularly until the worn cord needed replacement. It is in use again!

I have not actually repaired the cord to my vintage iron yet but the quality of the wiring cord and plug were excellent. It shipped quickly and packaged carefully. The thank you stickers completed the package. I would recommend this company highly. My husband is already making a list of things that can be repaired.

This is just like plugs I used about 1965, except for being safer. The old plugs had that cardboard disc on the front. Remember? The only thing standing between your fingers, and a nasty shock! These new plugs look the same except the front is held on with two screws. That is called "Dead Front" and is required by the modern electrical code. I really like the finger grip, for pulling the plug out.

Restoring 1930 desk lamp I wanted a original looking with the safety of a polarized plug. No box store in my area them. So glad I found Snake head Vintage.

Just what I needed a little more than I wanted to pay but they will make my projects look unique.

Reply: Glad you like them Martin, these are our more expensive plugs, but we do have a few options that are cheaper, but just as awesome! Also remember price goes down if you buy more, you can mix and match colors, if you think you'll be needing these in the future consider buying 4, 10 or 20 for a bulk discount.

Restoring a 1930's fan. After media blasting and motor rebuild It will get black/grey twisted wire and period plug. Both will look great on this re-do

Easy to attach the cord, wires are sequestered from each other, quality materials. Way better and safer than the old plug it replaced, and it looks just right.

I've been using Snakehead's replica plugs for vintage radio restorations for a couple of years. They're the most authentic-looking plugs I've found. The insulator disks are a big plus for me. Previously I'd used some plugs that came with yellow plastic screw-on disks which looked awful, and I replaced them with hand-made disks. The insulators provided with the Snakehead replicas look like what you'd expect in an old plug.

This is the first time I've purchased long-neck plugs. The reason is that lately I've been gifting some restored radios to family and friends. The long-neck design gives a margin of safety which makes me more comfortable about putting vintage radios in other people's homes.

got mine a few days ago. a great product for when you need the ground in your project. gives it a more authentic look.

SELLERS NOTE: For clarification, these plugs don't have a ground hookup, they are 2-prong plug only: hot and neutral, no ground. We do have a similar style 3-prong plugs if you do need a ground connection for your project. -SHV
