TE Connectivity CPC Plastic Series 1, 2 and 3

Cable Mount Shells Series 1 & 2

From TE Connectivity, a selection of cable mount shells from series 1 and 2 of the CPC (Circular Plastic Connector) range. The rugged connectors are designed to provide a reliable and convenient connection system suited to industrial, process control and transportation applications.

The threaded cable connectors mate with a panel or free-hanging receptacles providing endless connection possibilities. With a positive lock feature and knurled coupling ring the robust CPC connector’s mate tightly preventing accidental disengagement.

The CPC series of crimp connectors can be quickly assembled on site and in the field. Crimp contacts are easily are removed if damaged, which supports rapid repair eliminating valuable down time in the field.
