From Hirschmann, the MiniQuick E series of M8 threaded connectors designed for cable mounting. The re-wireable connectors feature auto-piercing contact technology for rapid termination, no wire stripping required. This unique characteristic can save up to 50% of time when terminating on site or in the field. An integral metric cable gland, strain relief, and cable clamping ensure optimal cable retention. With an IP67 ingress rating, the MiniQuick E series of circular connectors are best suited to environments that demand a higher level of protection. The perfect solution for harsh environments. These sensor style connectors are ideal for maintenance, repair and the construction of customised cable assemblies.

Want cable assembly that's done in a flash? Reach for this circular connector from Belden Hirschmann. Its auto-piercing pin penetration lets you terminate your cable without stripping the wire, making in-field installations a cinch. Thanks to its NBR O-ring, this connector has an IP67 rating, so it's protected against dust and submersion in 1m of water for up to 30 minutes. The PA housing is resistant to impact and wear, so it holds its own in harsh environments.

• Broad operating temperature range between -25ºC and +70ºC for use in demanding environments
• Copper-zinc alloy contacts are highly conductive and corrosion-resistant for a reliable connection

• Manufacturing facilities
• Industrial automation
• Transportation systems

A right-angle connector like this one is ideal for hooking up equipment in tight, awkward spaces. It also minimises strain on the cable.
