MIL-DTL Connectors
We manufacture MIL-DTL-38999, MIL-DTL-5015, and MIL-DTL-26482 circular connectors for defence and industrial applications. These connectors feature bayonet or screw coupling mechanisms with solder, crimp, or PCB contacts. Designed for extreme environments, they ensure reliable performance in military, mining, and offshore operations.
EMC Backshells
Our EMI/RFI shielding backshells protect connectors against electromagnetic interference. Compliant with AS85049/M85049 standards, they provide environmental sealing and strain relief for MIL-DTL-38999 and 26482 connectors. These backshells maintain signal integrity in aerospace and defence systems.
Protective Caps
Metallic protective caps seal MIL-spec connectors against dust, moisture, and contaminants. Compatible with D38999/26482 and motorsport connectors, they ensure operational reliability in harsh industrial and racing environments through precision-engineered fits.
Cable Clamps
Cable clamp backshells for MIL-DTL-38999 connectors provide secure strain relief and environmental protection. Designed for military and industrial cable assemblies, they prevent mechanical stress and maintain connection integrity in demanding applications.
PCB Connectors
Two-part PCB connectors meet MIL-DTL-55302 specifications for military and aerospace use. Featuring 2-row configurations, they enable reliable board-to-board or cable-to-board connections in high-vibration environments requiring robust interconnect solutions.
