TE Connectivity Insert Male HE024 Heavy Duty Connector

Description

TE has been producing Heavy Duty Connectors (HDC) for over 60 years. The portfolio includes one of the very best in quality and sustainability, helping you to reduce go-to-market time.

Featuring a modular design, TE HDCs fit perfectly in our one-piece frame, to make installation more convenient and time-saving. Moreover, the docking frame allows for blind mating in spaces with limited visibility and offers direct access, for easier installation, when compared to more traditional solutions.

With up to 48 pins in a single module, TE’s HDCs provide one of the highest density in the market for maximum space saving in the application.

TE HDCs are available with low minimum order quantities and are fully backed by TE’s expert engineering support in all regions.
