Durable IDC Mini Clamp Socket 3M 37303-2165-0P0 FL 100 with no special wire prep and cable retention
Product Overview
The 3M Mini-Clamp Socket, 373 Series, is an IDC (Insulation Displacement Connector) designed for wiring applications, particularly for systems supplied from Japan and Asia. It offers a quick, reliable, and debris-free termination process using standard pliers, eliminating the need for special wire preparation. Key advantages include integrated cable retention, accommodation for multiple wire size diameters, and a compact design to save board and panel space. The socket supports high mating cycles and plug latches for secure interconnections in demanding applications, helping to reduce maintenance work through enhanced connection reliability.
