The working principle of heavy duty connectors is fairly straightforward. The two parts – a connector and an insert – are mated together and attached to an underlying conducting surface, typically metal, which provides the electrical connection between the two. The two parts are held together securely by a strong clamping force created by tightening the nut or bolts on the connector or by using tamper-proof protective covers. This creates a highly reliable connection which is extremely resistant to vibration, shock, and EMI.

Heavy duty connectors are used in a wide variety of industries and applications, including but not limited to aerospace, automotive, industrial equipment, and electronics. In some cases, they are used to make secure power, signal and data connections between systems or devices. They can also be used to connect parts of an assembly or machine, such as threaded fasteners or hydraulic lines. Many types of heavy duty connectors are available for a variety of uses, such as miniature connectors, wire-to-board connectors, MIL-spec connectors, RJ45 connector and more.

Inserts for heavy duty connectors come in a variety of different styles and sizes. Available sizes range from 1.0mm to 10.0mm, and the most common style is the “Flat Tab”. The Flat Tab is available in a range of sizes and is designed to securely lock in place when the correct mating piece is inserted. Other styles of insert include the “Oval Tab”, “Round Tab”, and “U-Style”. The U-Style insert is designed to accommodate multiple wires, allowing them to be connected to a single connection point.

To ensure a secure and reliable connection, most heavy duty connectors include a number of integrated features. Tamper-proof covers are typically used to protect the internal components and to ensure that the connectors remain securely connected. Some models also include a waterproof seal to protect the connection from moisture and other environmental conditions. In addition, many connectors are equipped with strain relief clamping systems to provide additional protection against physical strain.

Heavy duty connectors are designed to provide simple and reliable connections in a variety of applications. With the ability to withstand vibration, shock, EMI, and extreme temperatures, they are the ideal choice for applications that require extreme reliability. From automotive to aerospace, these connectors are sure to provide a secure, reliable connection for any application.
