3-Start, High Density Screw Coupling Connector

Mk38 - 3-Start, High Density Screw Coupling ConnectorMk38. The Mk38 system of connectors conform to BS9522-F0034 and can withstand the toughest conditions found in the military ground and marine equipment fields.

The range features a high density 100% scoop proof design with a coupling mechanism featuring a quick start thread with an anti-vibration device within a coarse ribbed nut. This provides positive metal to metal bottoming between connector halves resulting in a typical screening performance of 75dB at 100MHz and 65dB at 1000MHz.

Mk38 connectors are available in shell sizes accommodating from 3 to 128 contacts in a comprehensive range of planforms compatible with MIL-C-38999 Series 1.

Crimp rear insertion, rear release contacts conform to MIL-C-39029.

The connector range is available with a full complement of sealed outlets and accessories.
