160-000-013-041

D-Sub, D-Shaped Connectors - Accessories - Jackscrews are used to secure the metal shells of D-Sub connectors with each other and to hold them rigidly in place. They are an integral part of the assembly and are commonly used to stabilize the contacts and facilitate easier mating of the connectors.

The 160-000-013-041 jack screw is designed to firmly secure the rear of the connector shell, providing rigidity in the joint and helping to reduce the potential for breakage. It is assembled directly onto the connector prior to mating so all alignment and assembly is completed during the mating procedure. The area around the jackscrew should be free from burrs and foreign material to ensure the best possible connection.

The jackscrew is made from steel, with a knurled head to provide ease of assembly and to ensure that it adheres properly to the tail of the connector. The 160-000-013-041 jackscrews are also corrosion resistant, meaning they are suitable for use within both harsh and ambient environments. They are also impact resistant, meaning they can withstand the rigours of repeated mating and unmating of the connectors. They have a thread size of M4 and a head diameter of 8.2 mm.

In order to use the 160-000-013-041 jackscrews, the connector shells must be machined with the appropriate threads, and the proper tools must be used to assembly the screws onto the connectors. The screws must be tightened firmly to ensure a reliable connection and to avoid any potential breakages during mating and unmating. The thread size must also match the thread size of the connector shells.

In summary, the 160-000-013-041 jackscrews are an important part of the D-Sub connector assembly and they are used to ensure the integrity of the connection. They are made from steel, are corrosion and impact resistant and must be tightened firmly to ensure a reliable connection. Proper machining and the correct tools are required for their installation.
