by ConnectorGuy on ‎05-11-2010 10:47 AM

Amphenol Class L Heavy Duty Connectors are the largest sized cylindrical connector, highly suitable for industrial or military applications, and designed to meet the demands of heavy power interconnections. Manufactured of high strength aluminum, these heavy duty connectors are able to withstand high impact which makes them suitable for harsh environments.


Other unique features include:

  • Gaskets and/or O-rings at appropriate surfaces create perfect weather tight connections.
  • Double stub coupling thread for faster mating, no cross threading, and easy cleaning.
  • Left hand accessory threads to minimize cable twisting, wire breakage, accidental connector disassembly.
  • Amphenol Class L heavy duty connectors can be exposed to harsh environmental conditions, without compromise of mechanical integrity or degradation of electrical performance.

Amphenol Class L heavy duty connectors carry current ranges from 40 to 200 amps with conductor sizes 6 to 4/0. Safety features are incorporated to assure protection of personnel and equipment if connectors are inadvertently disconnected under load. Class L connectors are available only in the specific configurations prescribed by MIL-C-22992 for either military or industrial applications. This rigid configuration control assures correct interconnection of electrical circuits for maximum safety and reliability.
