AMPSEAL Connector Overview & Assembly Instructions (English)
Discover the Next Level of Connectivity with AMPSEAL Connectors
We continue to drive innovation in sealed, high-performance connectors for industrial and commercial vehicles. Our AMPSEAL connectors are engineered to provide secure, easy-to-use, and reliable cable-to-board connections in harsh environments, and long-term durability in high-vibration and extreme temperature conditions. As part of our commitment to continuous improvement, we are introducing new features to the AMPSEAL connector portfolio with the AMPSEAL robust headers. These enhanced PCB-mounted headers now incorporate an integrated security feature with M3 metal bushings at four corners, delivering increased reliability, secure mating, and resistance to mechanical stress. With a focus on robustness and easy integration, they provide next-level vibration resistance and mechanical strength.
