Kwik Way Electric Griddle cloth cord

Hi,
I have like a 1930s - 1940s Kwik Way Electric Sandwich Griddle but I
am looking for a cloth cord for it at a cheap to reasonable price.
The information stamped on the bottom on separate lines, which I represent with commas, is as follows:
115V. Cat. No. K-620 600W
Pat. No. 2.014.001 96.481
2.040.369 2.096.663 Note: last 6 maybe an 8
Patents Pending
Reg. U.S. Pat. Off.
Kwikway
MF'D BY
KWIKWAY CO.
St. Louis U.S.A.
The first few pics are to show you what the sandwich griddle looks like, the fourth and fifth pics show the electric prongs and measurement between the prongs and the last pic shows the inscribed info on the bottom of the griddle.
If there is more information about this griddle that someone could share
with me, that would be great because I could not find anything about it.
Thank you. Rob

 

Are there any specifications stamped on the bottom? I.e. 10A 125V

 

I was in the middle of adding a pic of the specs stamped on the bottom. Please see last pic. It may not be readable, I may have to go get the item and type the information that is on the bottom out. Rob

 

I think it says 115 V when I clicked on the pic above. Rob

 

Thanks for the pic. 115V 600Watts

You need to get an accurate measurement on those pins from center to center. In the pic, the left end of the tape measure is not in the middle of the pin, but it appears to be about 11/16" and that is a fairly common size.

You can search for an appliance cord and use the spacing once you get an accurate measurement. Make sure it's rated for at least 115V, and most are.

If you want an original item, it will be a cloth cord, and fairly thick in terms of the diameter. Here's a Kwik Way toaster and the cord for this will be similar:

Otherwise, you can get a modern one...

 

Actually, the maker of your toaster is the Knapp-Monarch Company. They manufactured products for private brands, like Kwikway.

There is a similar model to yours in the Smithsonian:

I have added the specification stamped on the bottom to my initial posted thread. Rob

 

Thank you for the information. I will redo my measurement pic and I might just get a modern cord for it. Thank you.

 

Thank you, thank you, thank you. Eyes wide opened with excitement to the info. Rob

 

same problem as recently on a samovar.
normally the DIN 49491 plug should do the trick.

HAHA!!! If the old stuff still works, we hate to let it go, HUH???!!!!!

 

Sometimes those long ebay URLs don't work here.

 

How would the male ends inside the AUOne MDP-2 fit inside the male prongs on the griddle? Thank you for your effort and information. rknarr2

 

It did not come up for me either. However, if you copy and paste it as an address, it came up for me. rknarr2

 

@rkna Isn't that weird that if you highlight it, then right click on it and click "go to" (in Chrome) it will take you there , but click directly on it and you go to just an ebay generic page ..... oh, the mysteries of the internet......
