Rectangular Connectors - Housings

A 43020-2001 style rectangular connector housing is designed to provide a secure link between two parts of an electrical system. It is a two-piece heavy duty plastic housing with four pairs of metal contact inserts that provide connections for power and signal. The housing includes a large support area that guides the connection of the contacts to create a strong mechanical and electrical connection. These connectors are used in both commercial and industrial applications including electronics, communications, and automotive.

The 43020-2001 connector housing provides a dependable connection with high-vibration resistance and durability. Its corrosion-resistant contacts provide superior performance in extreme temperature and humidity conditions. The connector has a groove which prevents it from easily slipping and that helps it withstand high-pull forces. The connection between the contacts and the housing is maximized by adding a metal locking plate.

The housing is available in various sizes to accommodate different combinations of contacts, including single-, double-, and triple-row versions. It is also available in plastic or metal versions and in several colors and contact terminal pitches. The large support area supports a variety of contact configurations and vice versa, including pin and socket contacts. Connectors with a “snap-fit” feature provide quick and easy assembly of the connectors. The metal housing can be fastened to the frame for extra stability and the terminal positions can be marked by color coding or labeling.

The working principle of a 43020-2001 connector housing is based on the electrical, mechanical, and thermal properties of the contacts and the housing. The contacts are designed to provide an electrical connection between the two parts and the housing is designed to protect the contacts from dust and transport the electrical current. As the contacts are tightened, the connection between the contacts and the housing is maximized and the connection is secured. Thermal management is also critical as too much heat can cause damage to the contacts and the housing.

The 43020-2001 connector housing provides a secure and reliable connection between two parts of an electrical system while minimizing the amount of space taken up. Its corrosion-resistant contacts provide superior performance in extreme temperature and humidity conditions while its snap-fit feature provides quick and easy assembly. This versatile connector is suitable for a range of commercial and industrial applications and its thermal management makes it an ideal choice for high-temperature applications. Overall, the 43020-2001 connector housing is an excellent option for connecting two parts of an electrical system.
