A heavy duty connector insert is a specialized electrical component that transmits power and signals in extreme environments. Built to endure high vibration, shock, and harsh conditions, these inserts are vital for manufacturing, aerospace, and energy industries. Here’s a breakdown of their features, types, and benefits.
Core Features of Heavy Duty Connector Insert
Robust Construction:
Shell: Made from polycarbonate for impact resistance and flame retardancy (UL 94 V-0).
Contacts: Copper or brass pins plated with gold or silver to ensure low resistance (≤3mΩ) and corrosion resistance.
Environmental Protection:
Dustproof, waterproof, and resistant to chemical corrosion under the protection of hoods and housings.
Operates in -40°C to +125°C, suitable for outdoor or high-heat industrial settings.
Secure Connections:
Connection mechanism to prevent accidental disconnection.
Vibration-resistant designs.
Types of Heavy Duty Connector Inserts
Can be divided into female inserts and male inserts
The difference between female inserts and male inserts lies in their shapes and connecting parts, but their functions and materials are the same. Heavy-duty connectors enhance safety and ensure normal operation of equipment when current flows from the female connector to the male connector.
Male Inserts :
Feature protruding pins for insertion into female counterparts.
Male connectors are attached to the housing
Female Inserts :
Female inserts have inward slots.
Female connectors are usually placed inside a housing or panel and are fastened with screws or other hardware.
4 Termination Methods for Reliable Wiring
Screw Terminal:
No special tools; ideal for high-current applications.
Crimp Terminal:
Cold-welded contacts for vibration resistance (e.g., rail systems).
Cage Clamp:
Quick, tool-light wiring for small-gauge cables (0.14–2.5mm²).
Axial Screw:
Combines screw simplicity with compact sizing for large cross-section fine stranded wires.
