Multipurpose Build-Your-Own Latching Connectors

Combine power, USB, computer, and compressed air inserts to build a connector that sends signal, power, and data. A complete connector requires a hood, a base, two frames, and a male and female insert for each slot in the frame. The frames fit into the hood and base, and the inserts snap into the frame. Select components based on the number of slots needed. Once assembled, connectors are rated NEMA 4X, 12, and IP65 for protection against dirt, washdowns, and oil/coolant dripping.
Use USB adapters with USB holders to connect two male USB cords.
Crimpers (sold separately) are required for wire installation for crimp-on connectors. They ratchet to ensure the correct pressure is applied to every crimp.
Use positioners (sold separately) with crimpers to hold pins and sleeves at the correct height while crimping.
Extraction tools (sold separately) make it easier to remove pins or sleeves from 17- and 20-pole power inserts.
Insertion/Extraction tools (sold separately) make it easier to install DB25 inserts.
