Mk18

2-Start, Coarse Screw Coupling Connector

Mk18 - 2-Start, Coarse Screw Coupling ConnectorMk18. (Pattern 608) A complete system of medium density connectors and accessories designed to withstand extreme environmental conditions. Approved to BS9522-F0020, Mk18 connectors are particularly suitable for exposed areas in marine and land based equipments. The nickel aluminium bronze shells provide excellent corrosion resistance coupled with high strength.

The quick start thread coupling nut with anti-vibration device gives positive controlled compression of the interface seal in a metal to metal condition, resulting in a screening performance of 75dB at 100MHz typical and 55dB at 1000MHz.

MK 18 connectors are available in 9 shell sizes with planforms, based on Mil-C-26482 accommodating from 2 to 61 contacts.

Sealed outlets accommodate jacketed screened multicore cables and provide a cable entry which is watertight to a depth of 12 feet.

Further details on the Mk18 range available on request from the factory.
