Description:

New, Velok is a small, light-weight, and easy to use rectangular connector designed for low and medium power applications. Its compact design allows for limited space access. Velok’s spring-loaded latch makes mating and unmating a snap by simply pushing to lock and unlock connection. The push lock provides convenient single-handed and toolless mating. Positive lock indicator allows assemblers easy to see confirmation the connector is properly mated.

Features & Benefits:

  • Push/Pull Mating: Push-Mate and quick release reduce assembler fatigue

  • Scoop-Proof: Prevents contacts from being bent or electrically shorted during mating

  • Compact Rectangular Form Factor: Ideal where space is limited

  • Positive Lock Indicator: Easy for assembler to see connector is fully mated

  • Polyethermide Housing (Ultem): Wide operating range and chemical resistance

  • Multiple Keying Positions: Reducing operator errors or mis-mating

  • Boot Ridge: Integrated feature for tying off protective sheathing w/o adding backshells or saddle clamps
