TE Connectivity DT-XT sealed connector system
TE Connectivity announces DT-XT sealed connector system
Customers require a highly reliable, securely sealed connection system to minimize electrical failures and prevent costly machine downtime. TE Connectivity's (TE) DT-XT connectors are a new extension of the DT connector portfolio that innovative, high-performance sealing technology for all your commercial vehicle applications even in the harshest environmental conditions.The DT-XT connectors offer increased flexibility, improved tear resistance, and seal positioning with advanced sealing materials and covalent bonds. With the integrated locking feature, the connection system ensures secure mating and unmating of connectors. Finger grips on the locking mechanism provide a ribbed surface that makes it easier to connect, disconnect, and release, even when fingers are wet, dirty, or oily.
Features
