Durable 3M 37306-2165-0W0 FL Mini Clamp Socket with Transparent Cover and Copper Alloy Contact Material
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 high number of mating cycles. The compact design saves board and panel space, while features like plug latches ensure reliable interconnection in demanding applications. This socket helps reduce maintenance work by providing higher connection reliability.
