Overview

Key Benefits

SUPERSEAL 1.0 Connector Backshells

  • Reduces connector stress for improved electrical performance
    By stabilizing the wire exit point, backshells help minimize cable flexing and movement, reducing stress on terminals and helping maintain long-term electrical integrity.
  • Helps extend wire harness service life
    Integrated strain relief reduces mechanical fatigue on wiring, particularly in areas exposed to continuous vibration, motion, or engine-related shock.
  • Improves sealing and environmental protection
    Backshells support better sealing performance by guiding cables cleanly out of the connector, helping reduce the risk of moisture and debris ingress.
  • Enables easier cable routing in tight spaces
    With options for 180° and 90° wire exits, these backshells provide flexibility in routing cables through space-constrained compartments and harness layouts.
  • Supports multiple plug configurations for streamlined integration
    Designed for compatibility with SUPERSEAL 1.0 connector plugs using single-latch, double-latch, or lever locking mechanisms, backshells simplify assembly and reduce part complexity.
  • Reinforces reliability in demanding transportation applications
    Ideal for underhood, chassis, and engine-mounted systems, SUPERSEAL 1.0 connector backshells are engineered to support durability across commercial vehicle and off-highway environments.
Improving reliability where it matters most.
Adding a backshell to your SUPERSEAL 1.0 connector helps reduce cable strain and protects the connection against high pressure water spraying.

Real World Applications

SUPERSEAL 1.0 Connector Backshells

SUPERSEAL 1.0 connector backshells are engineered to meet the demands of modern industrial and commercial transportation systems. They provide enhanced strain relief and support long-term connector performance in environments exposed to continuous vibration, thermal cycling, mechanical stress, and high pressure water spray. Common applications include:

 

  • Engine Compartment Harnessing in Off-Highway Equipment
    Helps protect wire connections exposed to high heat and vibration in agricultural, construction, and mining machinery.
  • Battery Management System (BMS) Interfaces in Electric Commercial Vehicles
    Supports strain relief and reliable signal transmission in high-voltage environments within electric trucks, buses, and specialty vehicles.
  • Chassis Harness Coupling in Heavy-Duty Trucks
    Stabilizes connector interfaces located on or near vehicle frames, helping prevent connector fatigue in high-shock road conditions.
  • Electronic Control Unit (ECU) Connectivity in RecreationalVehicles
    Enhances harness retention and reduces strain on connectors used in telematics units, powertrain control modules, and ABS/EBS systems.
  • Sensor and Actuator Wiring in Harsh Environments
    Provides secure wire exits and routing flexibility for sensors in drivetrain, brake, and hydraulic control systems.
  • Underhood Cabling in Buses and Utility Vehicles
    Enables tight routing and long-term durability in sealed connector systems located in engine bays and firewall junctions.

 

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

SUPERSEAL 1.0 Connector Backshells

Q: What is the purpose of a backshell in SUPERSEAL 1.0 connector systems?

A: A backshell provides added strain relief and cable support at the connector interface, helping to reduce wire fatigue and enhance vibration resistance. In SUPERSEAL 1.0 systems, backshells improve long-term connector stability in high-stress environments such as engine compartments and chassis-mounted applications. They also protect against high pressure water spray and all the SUPERSEAL 1.0 connector system to achieve up to IP69K protection.

 

Q: Are SUPERSEAL 1.0 backshells compatible with both latch and lever plug designs?

A: Yes. SUPERSEAL 1.0 backshells are designed to work with single-latch, double-latch, and lever-lock plug configurations. This allows for flexible integration across various ICT applications while maintaining a sealed and secure connection.

 

Q: When should I use a 90-degree versus a 180-degree backshell?

A: Use a 90-degree backshell when space constraints require tight routing or side-exit cable paths—common in underhood or control module locations. Choose a 180-degree backshell for straight-through wiring where space permits and minimal bend radius is needed. Both options are optimized to maintain wire alignment and reduce strain under vibration.
