Rectangular Connectors - Accessories

A 2-643077-2 connector is a series of rectangular electrical connectors commonly utilized by the aviation industry. These connectors typically feature eight symmetrical contacts on each side and are designed to meet the stringent requirements of the Aerospace Standard AS81820. This type of connector is commonly installed in high performance military aircraft applications where reliable connections and secure environmental sealing is required.

The 2-643077-2 connector features an encapsulated, cast aluminum housing that provides strength and protection from environmental corrosion. It is also designed to meet the requirements of MIL-C-26430 and is designed to withstand extreme temperature and humidity environments. The housing design includes multiple keying points to ensure mating with the correct receptacle.

The 2-643077-2 connector is rated for currents up to 300 Amp and has a power transfer rating of 800 Watts. The contact design uses an interlocking U-contact that slides over the tabs of the receptacle contacts and press fits into position. This type of contact is highly reliable and provides secure connections over the relatively long life of the connector.

The pins of the 2-643077-2 connector feature a single point gold over nickel plating. This provides superior corrosion protection and conductivity to the pins over long periods of usage. The pins also have a narrower profile to allow for a more compact connection between mating parts, eliminating the need for additional fasteners or clips.

The 2-643077-2 connector utilizes a simple yet effective snap-in design that requires no tools to assemble. This allows for easy installation or servicing of the connector in remote locations or in challenging environments. It also offers the benefit of being able to be installed without disturbing other wiring and connections.

The 2-643077-2 connector is primarily used in aviation applications and is suitable for use in both static and dynamic applications. It is designed to comply with the MIL-C-26430 and is designed with multiple keying features that allow for a secure and reliable mating with the correct receptacle. The connector is designed to meet the stringent electrical, environmental and mechanical requirements of the aviation industry and is highly reliable over long periods of usage.
