Compact Anderson Power 992G1-BK Connector with Polycarbonate PBT Blend Housing and IP20 Touch Safety Rating
Product Overview
The Anderson SB 50 Connectors, a design pioneered in 1953, are the industry standard for DC power distribution and battery connections. These two-pole connectors feature a robust one-piece plastic housing secured by stainless steel springs, ensuring low-resistance contact. Designed for versatility, they accommodate wire sizes from 16 to 6 AWG (1.5 to 13.3 mm) within their compact housings. Key advantages include silver or tin-plated copper contacts rated for up to 120 amps, UL rating for hot-plugging up to 50 amps, and compatibility with wire, PCB, and busbar contacts for a unified connection system.
