Mil. Spec. Compatible Connectors

Connectors secure with a quarter turn when mated, yet unlock and pull apart with minimal force. All have the same pin and socket configurations as MIL-DTL-26482, so they are compatible with other products that meet the same standard. They’re rated IP67 to protect against dust and temporary submersion. When mating connectors, the gender and housing lock location must be opposite. Poles are labeled with letters on the face of the connectors to ensure proper connection.

Crimpers (sold separately) are required for wire installation.

Build-Your-Own Latching Connectors

Configure a connector for your application—combine male and female inserts with a base and a hood. Select components based on the number of poles needed. To protect connections while maintaining access, the base and hood latch together securely, yet can be quickly detached for equipment repair or replacement. Once assembled, these connectors are rated NEMA 4X, 12, and IP65 for protection against corrosion, washdowns, dirt, oil/coolant dripping, and water projected from a nozzle.
