Robust and Reliable
Universal MATE-N-LOK connectors utilize a combination of pins and sockets intermixed in the plug and cap housings to achieve excellent electrical performance in a 6,35mm pitch design.
The nominal voltage is 600VAC/VDC, and the current is 19A. There are wire-to-wire, wire-to-panel, and wire-to-board configurations available. Housings feature positive polarization, positive locking, and rear cavity identification for easy, error resistant assembly. Contacts are enclosed in the housings and are removable for system flexibility.
Universal MATE-N-LOK connectors offer numerous options, including circular, flanged, bulkhead, sealed, and coloured housings in various materials (including Glow Wire compliant) to offer solutions for many diverse applications.

Possible versions:
Existing applications utilizing Universal MATE-N-LOK connectors can be upgraded to a splash-proof system using connector Wire Seal an Interface Seal.
The connector seals are designed to ensure a water-resistant seal between mated plug and cap housings. One interface seal, two-wire seals, and optional sealing plugs are required per assembly.
Main features of the splash-proof solution:
- Economical splash proof/ immersible sealed connector system
- No design changes to the existing Universal MATE-N-LOK product
- Utilizes two-wire seals and one interface seal
- Wire range is 0,5-2,0mm2 with insulation diameter range 1,52-3,30mm
- 2,79-3,30mm insulation diameter passed European IP sealing level 5/6 + 7 (swirling dust/ immersion to 1 meter for 30 minutes)
- 1,52-2,79mm insulation diameter passed European IP sealing level 5/5 + 7 (swirling dust/ heavy seas)
- Universal MATE-N-LOK II keying plug can be used to seal unused circuits
- The primary application is for wire-to-wire; the wire-to-board application must use a closed bottom header
