292132-5

Headers, Male Pins

292132-5 is one of the tabular connectors manufactured by, and is a widely used connector. It is mainly used to make the electrical connection between the apparatus and network cables, and it also serves for the connection of other signal conduction lines. This is a three-socket connector, hence it is useful in many situations, like controlling audio frequencies, connecting to cables, and other uses.

Application Field

The 292132-5 tabular connector is widely employed for making electrical connections, as it has three sockets and is one of the most durable connectors available today. Specifically, it is used in areas that deal with termination of cables, especially those that carry audio statements.It also has a widely used industrial application for making electrical connections in different fields of engineering, such as in medical and technical fields. Its utilization on nuclear power plants is not known by many, but it has been widely used on internal wiring systems of these plants, where reliability and safety of the connection is of utmost concern. Similarly, it is used for the transmission of digital signals in communication industry too.

Working Principle

The 292132-5 connectors work by establishing an electrical connection using two metal contact surfaces, one fitting into the other, commonly referred as ‘pin to socket’ connection. It is designed in such a way that when a force is applied to it, it provides an audible or visible signal to confirm the connection. In simple words, when an electrical signal is introduced into one of the sockets, it passes through the other two sockets. This is done by using cable or wire strands connected to the metal pins, and the target electric connection is made when these strands are placed into the correct receptacle.

It is important to note that 292132-5 connectors can carry heavy electrical currents, due to their robust construction and twice the cross-sectional area of their counterparts. As it is designed with three successive rows of pins, it provides a secure electrical connection, and is therefore used in industrial settings. Additionally, it has an array of different lengths to suit different applications, and it can also have its resistance changed with the help of different materials such as aluminum, copper, and brass. In short, it provides a reliable connection and is designed to serve the mounting needs of many industrial applications.
