Turn-Lock Connectors

The curved blades lock into place with a quarter turn. These connectors won’t detach when bumped or pulled, so they’re often used in high-vibration applications, such as on assembly lines or with heavy machinery.

Adapters

Change a turn-lock to a straight-blade connection, or a straight-blade to a turn-lock connection.

Industrial—Reliable performance and long life in manufacturing and processing environments.

These cords run the automated world, from robot arms and photoelectric sensors to PLCs and IO-Link devices. The original metric circular cord, they continue to be the standard today. They screw together tightly to protect against contaminants and hold firm against high vibration. Each one has a coding that indicates a unique keyway, preventing mismated connection errors before they happen. The coding also tells you whether a cord can send power, control, or both, reducing the need for multiple cords.

M12 Connectors

These connectors run the automated world, from robot arms and photoelectric sensors to PLCs, IO-Link devices, and Ethernet switches. The original metric circular connector, they continue to be the standard today. They screw together tightly to protect against contaminants and hold firm against high vibration. Each one has a coding that indicates a unique keyway, preventing mismated connection errors before they happen. The coding also tells you whether a connector can send power, control, or data. Some can send a combination of the three, reducing the need for multiple connectors.
