Product Details

M12 Field Wireable connectors are available in a wide range of straight and Right angle, male and female, and plastic and metal versions.

The field mount connector consists of six parts. In order, they are the threaded compression nut, compression ring, rubber cord grip, shielding bail, housing and connector.

Difference between PG7 and PG9

PG7 and PG9 are German standard thread sizes for cable fixing devices.PG7 is suitable for cable diameters from approx. 3.5mm to 6.5mm, while PG9 is suitable for cable diameters from approx. 4mm to 8mm. The choice depends on the cable diameter and equipment requirements.

FAQ

The M12 connector is a circular connector with a 12 mm locking thread. Suitable for factory automation applications, actuators, sensors, industrial Ethernet and fieldbus, etc. M12 connectors are also useful in flushing and corroding environments. They are available with 3, 4, 5, 8, and 12 pins.

M8 connectors, with an 8-mm circular coupler, are specifically used in industrial automated systems, typically linking sensors, actuators, and switches. M8 connectors can be used for similar applications as M12, but have a smaller footprint incorporating an 8mm threaded head.

For data applications, there are five main types of M12 connectors with key positions A, B, C, D or X. These connectors are available with 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 12, or 17 pins. Depending on the number of signals, type of signals, type of interface involved in the connection, and the connector code.

The M12 name comes from the metric thread on the coupling nut and mating socket of most connectors. They are basically 12 mm diameter fasteners with an M12 thread.
