Industrial and Rail Power Connectors

MIL-DTL-5015, 26482 and other Industrial Power Connectors Including turnkey power cable and conduit assemblies for rail, mass transit, industrial, robotics, military and entertainment industry (stage and location lighting) applications. Glenair manufactures a broad range of qualified electrical power and signal connectors for electrical vehicles, industrial equipment, as well as rail, mass-transit and harsh environment military applications. Many of the connector products, backshells and accessories are manufactured to comply with the MIL-DTL-5015 or MIL-DTL-26482 specifications, which include hundreds of versatile power and signal connector designs ideally suited for electrical power and signal interconnect cabling. The addition of reverse bayonet coupling to these robust military style connectors improves their reliability and mating performance in rugged, vibration and shock applications. Glenair is also able to offer many of these same connector families qualified to NATO and VG standards including VG95234 and VG95328.

ProSeal™ Protective Covers

ProSeal™ Protective Covers

High-performance military and commercial interconnect applications employ protective covers to seal unmated receptacles from sand, dust, and fluid ingress, as well as other forms of environmental and mechanical damage.

Twist-Strip™

Twist-Strip™

Stripping multi-conductor wire cable is often done by hand with a razor blade. This is a dangerous and difficult way to remove the jacket from any type of electrical cable. The DMC Twist-Strip™ products have adjustable blades that allow the tool to accommodate variances in the cable. The repeatable function of the tool reduces operator error and is up to 3 to 5 times faster than conventional methods.
