Wire-to-wire connector for short-circuit connection
Features ––––––––––––––––––––––––
• For short-circuit connection
Tab contacts for short-circuit connection are to be mounted in
the housing.
• Housing lance
The resilient plastic housing lances secure the contacts in the
housing. Since the lances are in the housings rather than on the
contacts, they are not affected by handling, and allow the
contacts to be lightly inserted without undue force. This
establishes a feeling of uniform insertion and a noticeable
change in that feeling when insertion is completed.
• Secondary retainers
The secondary retainers enhance safety in case of partial
insertion or accidental release of the contact. Even if a contact
is inserted incompletely, the retainer guides the contact to the
proper position and securely locks it in place.
• Panel lock construction
Our unique compact panel lock is designed to prevent tangling
with wires and accidental breakage because of handling.
• Tab contact built-in type is available
Connectors with contacts already built-in can be supplied too.
Place orders with model numbers exclusively allocated to them.
