66177-004

Rectangular Connectors - Accessories are a type of electronic equipment designed for wire-to-wire or wire-to-board connections. The 66177-004 connector is one such system, a combination of a two-piece plastic shell and a termination system that creates a stronger hold for a more secure and reliable connection.

Application Field

A 66177-004 connector is well-suited for a variety of applications, such as wiring harness assemblies, power cord or cable assemblies, equipment panels, and commercial, industrial, and military equipment. Its two-piece plastic shell provides the locking and unplugging feature, which makes it an ideal choice for connecting and disconnecting frequently. Its two-piece glued construction creates a strong grip that resists vibration and pressure. It also has two low-insertion-force contacts that make contact insertion and removal easy.

The connector\'s two piece design also provides environmental protection, including resistance to dust, moisture, and extreme temperatures. This makes it a great choice for applications in harsh environments, such as marine, automotive, and truck applications. Its compact size and flexibility allow it to fit in many locations that could not house a full-sized connector.

Working Principle

The 66177-004 uses a unique sealing system to provide an air- and water-tight connection. The two pieces are designed to snap together in a way that creates an effective seal that prevents any moisture or dust from entering the connector. Additionally, the two pieces are held together by two screws that prevent accidental disconnection. Once the screws are tightened, the connector is sealed.

The result is a connector that can withstand high temperatures and harsh environments. The two pieces are designed to be inserted easily into equipment panels, making it ideal for tight spaces and hard-to-reach places. Plus, because of its small size, the 66177-004 connector is much easier to insert and remove than a full-sized connector.

With its two-piece construction and environmental protection, the 66177-004 connector is an excellent choice for a variety of applications. Its flexibility and easy installation make it a great choice for wiring, power, and equipment panels. Plus, its reliable hold and effective seal make it ideal for applications in difficult and harsh environments.
