Molex Mini-C™ Connectors

Features & Benefits:

  • Interfacial terminal seals complying with ANSI B93 are augmented by a secondary ring seal, eliminating contamination to the interconnect system.
  • Machined contacts with insulation support protect against wire damage caused by repeated cord flex or severe angle bends.
  • Positive mating is visually assured by a green line, clearly viewable during inspection when the Mini-C connector is properly installed.
  • A unique spring coupling ring system maintains insert pressure and vibration resistance during long mating periods. The system compensates for the material's compression set and maintains seal integrity for the life of the users' products.
  • The Mini-C connector's longer coupling ring provides a larger gripping area while adding support to the plug body.
