Space Flight
Quality Connectors
Space Densi-D Series connectors are space flight application
quality, high density rectangular connectors designed specifical-
ly to withstand the rigors of launch and subsequent extended
space flight. These removable crimp contact or fixed contact
printed board mount connectors conform to all materials, dimen-
sional and performance requirements of MIL-DTL-24308 and
GSFC S-311-P-4, as well as the outgassing requirements of
ASTM E-595 and NASA-RP-1124.
Space Densi-D Series connectors utilize precision machined
contacts with closed barrel crimp terminations and solder termi-
nations for straight and 90˚ printed board mount. All female con-
tacts are closed entry design, featuring a fluted brass shroud.
Six standard contact variants are offered in arrangements of
15, 26, 44, 62, 78, and 104 contacts. Space Densi-D Series
connectors are mateable and compatible with other high densi-
ty D-Subminiature connectors conforming to materials and
dimensional requirements of IEC 807-2 and MIL-DTL-24308
where applicable.
Non-magnetic cable supports and jackscrew systems are
available.
Visual and mechanical inspection per MIL-DTL-24308 is
performed, additional testing is available. Contact Technical
Sales.

REELS FOR AUTOMATIC FEED PNEUMATIC CRIMP TOOLS
Contacts may be supplied in plastic carriers, packaged in reels holding 2,000
contacts for use with the automatic feed pneumatic crimp tools, catalog part num-
ber 9550-1. The same type carrier is used for both male and female contacts.
All male and female crimp contacts can be ordered in reels by adding letter “R”
after the contact part number, such as MC8022DR-50 for a male contact and
FC8022DR-50-1202.0 for female contact.
