Wide Range of Rectangular Connector Housings
From high-volume consumer appliances to specialized, low-volume industrial solutions. Our assortment of rectangular connector housings offers many different ratings and sizes to meet your requirements. Options include with or without locking features, a large selection of colors and materials ranging from various molded plastics to die-cast alloys. Power triple lock (PTL) connectors, many types of MATE-N-LOK connectors, dynamic series connectors, METRIMATE connectors, HTS connectors, and VAL-U-LOK connectors are some of the types available.
Universal MATE-N-LOK Connectors
Universal MATE-N-LOK connectors are the industry-standard power solution for a wide range of applications, including appliances, industrial machinery, and building systems. Engineers appreciate these connectors for their design flexibility, and TE continues to develop new Universal MATE-N-LOK products to address evolving power design challenges. The system offers a variety of specialized connectors, such as flanged, bulkhead, sealed, and twist-and-lock options, suitable for wire-to-wire, wire-to-board, and panel mount designs. Universal MATE-N-LOK housings include features like polarization, positive locking, and rear cavity identification for easy, mistake-free assembly. These housings are compatible with both pin and socket contacts, which can be used together within the same housing.

Power Triple Lock Connectors
The POWER TRIPLE LOCK connector system ensures reliable power and signal connections with three integrated locking features for enhanced security. It uses a 3-in-1 locking mechanism, where the cap (or header) and plug latch together, the Connector Position Assurance (CPA) device locks them in place, and the Terminal Position Assurance (TPA) device ensures the terminals are fully seated. Additionally, this system offers optional features for specific applications, including connectors that pass 750°C glow wire testing and those designed to meet Make First, Break Last (MFBL) grounding requirements.
MetriMate Connectors
TE Connectivity’s Rectangular Metrimate connectors offer a rugged, cost-effective solution for power input and output across various devices. The portfolio includes Square Grid, In-Line, and Blind Mate Drawer Connectors, providing versatile options to meet different needs. These connectors use the same contact system and termination tooling as TE’s Circular Plastic Connectors (CPC), enabling a more cost-efficient application by leveraging a shared platform with the CPC product line
Dynamic Series Connectors
TE’s Dynamic Series connectors provide reliable connectivity for both signal and power circuits in a rugged, industrial-grade design. Engineered for control system applications, they support high-density, signal, and power needs. Available in wire-to-board, wire-to-panel, and wire-to-wire configurations, these connectors feature versatile housings to accommodate a wide range of applications. With options for standard crimp and spring clamp variations, they also utilize standardized contacts, reducing the need for extensive application tooling.
