Protective caps for circular connectors

14 June 2017 Interconnection

Amphenol Socapex launched four new ranges of protective caps for its circular connectors. These ranges round out the current standard series to provide complete and lasting protection for all MIL-DTL-38999 Series I, II and III, MIL-DTL-26482, RJ field and USB field connectors.

Offering ease-of-use and optimal protection, the company’s snap caps screw directly with receptacles and are available in two types of material: composite for MIL-DTL-26482 connectors and aluminium for the MIL-DTL-38999 range. A choice of plating finishes – including nickel, black zinc nickel and cadmium – is available to guarantee increased protection against corrosion, impacts and vibrations. In addition, the metal cap for the MIL-DTL-38999 range is IP67 rated.

The standard versions with lanyard are compatible with MIL-DTL-38999, MIL-DTL-26482, RJ field and USB field connectors. The caps are available in aluminium, stainless steel and bronze, with a wide range of plating finishes, lanyards and eyelets to meet different needs, applications and environments.

Also available are silicone caps with nylon cord, which withstand temperatures up to 200°C and are compatible with the aforementioned connectors. They are a cost-effective alternative and are IP67 rated for harsh environments where damage from dust and moisture is possible.
