TE Connectivity’s monoblock connectors

Oct 1, 2019

TE Connectivity’s AMP MCP 18P Monoblock Connectors are designed for harsh environments in commercial and industrial transportation. Suited for bulkhead, in-cabin and fuse-and-relay-box applications, the unsealed monoblock connectors have a reduced mating force below 75 N and can be used for new or existing designs. They have a lever design for a more convenient fit into existing bulkhead cutouts, and the required secondary locking feature helps keep contacts aligned. A flame-retardant UL 94 V-0 material increases safety, and four available colors help facilitate proper mating and easier assembly.
