Durable Mini Clamp Socket 3M 37304-3101-000FL IDC Connector with Glass Reinforced Thermoplastic Body
Product Overview
The 3M Mini-Clamp Socket, 373 Series, is an IDC (Insulation Displacement Connector) designed for wiring applications, particularly for components supplied from Japan and Asia. It offers a 2 mm pitch and supports both wiremount and panel mount configurations. Key advantages include no special wire preparation, integrated cable retention, debris-free termination, and the ability to accept plug latches for reliable interconnections in demanding applications. Its compact design saves board and panel space, contributing to reduced maintenance work through higher connection reliability. The socket is suitable for a high number of mating cycles.
