Circular Connectors - Accessories

217-1461-000 circular connectors are among the most widely used accessories in various industries. Being quick to install and reliable in it\'s performance, it has become the go-to choice for applications requiring rapid connection and disconnection capabilities.

The 217-1461-000 circular connector is composed of three main parts: the contact, the connector body, and the backshell. Each component has a specific purpose that ensures robust electrical performance, mechanical protection and easy assembly. An important feature of these connectors is their positive latching design.

The contact is a spring-like conductor with sharp edges. It is typically made from a variety of conductive metals such as silver, gold or nickel. It features a crimped-on outer sleeve which protects the conductor and allows it to inserted into the backshell. It is also designed to securely latch onto the connector body.

The connector body provides the mechanical connection between the contact and the wiring harness or device it is connected to. It is typically made from metal, however plastic versions are also available. The body features a snap or latching mechanism which allows the contact to be securely fastened in place.

The backshell provides a protective enclosure for the connector body and contact. It typically features a locking mechanism and strain relief to secure the cable connected to the contact. It is typically made from a variety of durable materials such as polyester, polypropylene or aluminum.

The 217-1461-000 circular connector is designed to provide robust electrical performance. It utilizes screw and nut contact alignment which ensures that the contact is held securely in place. This design also provides excellent strain relief to the connected wiring harness. Additionally, the latching mechanism prevents accidental disconnection.
