Miniature Cylindrical connectors offer twice the
number of contacts in just half the size of a Standard connector.
These miniature connectors, are available in several series,
each with varying design characteristics and customer options
to meet cost considerations and provide maximum design flexi-
bility. Two of the Miniature Family series, MS/PT and MS/PT-SE,
are MS approved and qualified to MIL-C-26482, Series 1.
The Miniature family consists of three basic series: PT, SP and
PC. In all series, pin and socket contacts are machined from low
loss copper alloy and gold plated to eliminate contact corrosion
and provide an indefinite shelf life. All series incorporate closed
entry socket contacts. The PT, SP and PC series are provided
with factory installed solder contacts. Printed circuit board con-
tacts are available in the PT Series box mount and jam nut style
receptacles.
The PT, SP and PC series are also available with removable
crimp contacts incorporating either of two types of retention
systems. The suffix “SE” or “CE” refers to the type of retention
system employed. MS approved “SE” types utilize a spring
tower retention system, while the proprietary “CE” types utilize
a nylon wafer retention system to maintain contact position.

solder contact miniature cylindrical connectors
meet the most critical application needs. Design versatility
combined with high reliability performance makes these
series of Miniature Cylindrical Connectors ideal for envi-
ronmental sealing or pressurized applications.
The MS/PT Series is qualified to MIL-C-26482, Series 1 and
has all the outstanding design characteristics and quality of the
PT Series. The SP Series is a modification of the PT, providing
special shells with a wide mounting flange for back panel
mounting.

A corrosion resistant electrically conductive finish of cadmium
plate with an olive drab chromate after-treatment is used on the
PT and MS/PT. The SP is given a durable non-conductive hard
anodic “Alumilite”
®
coating which provides abrasion protection
and resistance to corrosion.
Shell components for these series are aluminum. The depend-
able 5 key/keyway polarization with bayonet lock coupling
assures positive mating with no chance of cross plugging.
Spring tension provided by a wave washer in the coupling nut
ensures maintenance of interfacial seal between mating halves.
Both the insert and main joint gasket are molded from resilient
neoprene. This provides excellent moisture sealing at the gas-
ket and superior electrical isolation of the contact in the insert.
Both pins and sockets are machined from a copper alloy and
are gold plated. This gold plating eliminates contact corrosion
and offers an indefinite shelf life. Socket contacts for these
series are a closed entry design. Printed circuit board contacts
are also available.
The PT, SP and MS/PT Series are intermateable and inter-
mountable with all existing Miniature Cylindrical Series connec-
tors except for the threaded coupling PC Series.
PT Solder is UL recognized under file #E115497, Volume 1,
Section 5.
Refer to pages 56-61 for insert arrangement availability.
