Corrosion Resistant Composite Military Connectors

The latest Mil-C-38999 series 3 connectors can now be supplied with shells made from composite material (High performance virgin resins with various fillers).

Composite material has several advantages such as superior corrosion resistance, increased durability and lower weight.

Corrosion is the largest contributing factor in advanced system failures. Composite totally eliminates connector related corrosion, particularly that caused by contact between dissimilar metals.

The material is so tough that it outperforms the standard aluminium alloy shells, achieving up to 1,500 mating cycles.

The EMI shielding specification exceeds that required by Mil-C-38999 and the magnetic permeability of the fully assembled connector is less than 2.0µ.
