CIRCULAR THREADED COUPLING CONNECTORSCircular Threaded Coupling Connectors use a threaded arrangement for the mating of the connectors. These are made in accordance with Indian Defence Standard, JSS 50812, which is a derivation of the MI L-C-5015 Specifications. Initially designed for military applications, these connectors are now used in electrical equipment in various industries.
CONNECTOR DESIGN & FEATURES
- The body of the connectors is made up of an aluminium alloy resulting in a rugged shell with minimal weight.
- The Olive Drab Chromate coating offers a highly corrosion-resistant surface finish. These connectors are also available in ROHS compliant surface finishes.
- The insulators are made of high quality polychloroprene and can withstand temperatures from -55 C to +125 C. This material has low flammability, good chemical resistance, and moderate oil and fuel resistance. Insulators capable of withstanding temperatures as high as 200° C are also available.
- Pins for the connectors are made of a copper alloy and are available in different sizes. As a result, the current-carrying capacity ranges from 1 QA to 150A.
- A wide variety of insert arrangements are available to cater to the various needs of the industry resulting in a broad spectrum of application.
- Availability of various backshells extends the usage of these connectors to harsher environments than those stated in the military specification.
