Overview

Protect Unmated Connections - Even in Harsh Conditions

Keep moisture, dust, and road spray away with a rugged connector protection cap built for off-highway vehicles, trucks, buses, and equipment.

 

Unmated connectors and headers face mud, wash-downs, and storage time. A connector protection cap helps keep interfaces clean between jobs. Options cover groups A–E, tab/header or receptacle styles, and 2–18 positions—so selection is straightforward and fast.

 

  • Helps guard contacts against water and debris to reduce corrosion and rework
  • Works across tough environments (−40°C up to 120–140°C, by part)
  • Supports series sealing performance (IP67; IP6K9K with cover when used as specified)
  • Durable PA/PA-GF/PBT-GF materials; UL 94HB or UL 94V-0 (by part)
  • Quick cap-on/cap-off handling during service, storage, or staged installs
  • Clear mapping by group for the right connector protection cap the first time
