JR21WCC-12(31) Connectors, Interconnects

JR21WCC-12(31) connecting system are part of a comprehensive range of circular connectors typically used for applications in the military, aerospace and industrial markets requiring high levels of durability, mechanical strength and performance.

The JR21WCC-12(31) end-to-end locking system consists of a circular backshell that is screwed onto both ends of the cable, effectively locking the connectors in place. The backshells are generally available in several standard sizes, and are designed for simple mechanical connection and disconnection in a wide range of applications.

Application Field

JR21WCC-12(31) backshells and cable clamps are principally used to secure cables in aircraft and military/defense applications but can also be used in industrial and commercial applications.

The system is often used in the aerospace sector as a versatile means of protecting the cables and wires running between the various components that make up the body of the aircraft as well as providing a secure connection. The fact that the system is permanent, tamper proof and is completely rigid in the airframe makes it a preferred choice in these applications.

It is also very popular in military/defense applications where the size factor of the connectors is a prime consideration. The fact that the backshell system is extremely robust and offers an additional degree of protection makes it the ideal choice for mission critical applications.

Working Principle

JR21WCC-12(31) backshells and cable clamps utilize a simple yet effective locking mechanism. The backshells are constructed with a two part locking collar that screws together over the cable and forms a secure mechanical connection.

The two parts of the locking collar are connected to each other with a series of small teeth that can only be disengaged when both parts are unscrewed in opposite directions. This ensures that the connection is maintained even if excessive forces are applied to the system.

The system also comes with a range of accessories such as dust covers and strain relief devices to ensure that the connection is maintained in the most hostile of environments.

The ease of installation and flexibility of JR21WCC-12(31) backshells and cable clamps make them a popular choice among users for a wide range of cabling applications.
