Washdown Turn-Lock Connectors and Cords
When mated, connectors meet NEMA 6P for protection against corrosion and washdowns. All have a multiple-ring seal and rubber housing to keep out liquid. They resist heat, oil, and chemicals. A quarter turn locks them in place to remain secure in high-vibration applications and prevent accidental disconnection.
Plugs mate with female receptacles and female sockets with an attached cover.

Harsh Environment Turn-Lock Connectors
Rated NEMA 6P, NEMA 13, IP66, and IP69K when mated, connectors withstand high-pressure, high-temperature washdowns, oil/coolant splashing, and are corrosion resistant so they can be used in marine environments. They require a quarter turn to mate.
Plugs have a multiple-ring seal to keep out liquid when mated. They have a locking ring that screws together with sockets and receptacles so connections remain secure in high-vibration applications such as oil drilling and mining operations.
Sockets and receptacles have an attached cover that creates a watertight seal when not mated.
