The connectors integrate strong locking levers for a secure fit and feature tightly sealed gaskets maintaining IP 65 for coupled connectors.
The rectangular connectors are available with positive male-to-female connections in 3-48 pole versions with ratings up to 16 A.



Altech’s (Flemington, NJ) new industrial rectangular connectors have been engineered to enable reliable mechanical and electrical connections for a wide range of data, control, signal and power applications. The new family of connector products features:

  • A variety of pole configurations, housings and hoods (metric or NPT).
  • Inserts that are designed to promote proper coupling.
  • Inserts that are manufactured from self-extinguishing thermoplastic (UL94-VO).
  • Optimized service in temperatures ranging from -40º to 125ºC. 
  • Inserts that are numbered and polarized to simplify identification and ensure proper compatibility. 
  • Interchangeable inserts to provide flexibility both for bulkhead-to-hood and hood-to-hood connections.
  • Complete assemblies that can be augmented with strain reliefs, Polyflex tubing or otherwise customized to satisfy application requirements.

Why Would I Specify?

  • The rectangular connectors are available with positive male-to-female connections in 3-48 pole versions with ratings up to 16 A. 
  • The connectors integrate strong locking levers for a secure fit and feature tightly sealed gaskets maintaining IP 65 for coupled connectors.
  • All the connectors conform to relevant European and UL standards.
