The Result Of Overdesigning Heavy-duty Connectors

For example:

● Expensive round pins machined to meet the high vibration requirements of railroads heavy duty automotive electrical connectors;

● Frequent replacement of carriages or train equipment requires a high plug-in/plug-out life of 500 cycles for heavy duty 12v connectors;

● The harsh outdoor environment of trains necessitates a wide temperature range, long-term salt spray corrosion resistance, and high IP protection for heavy duty 12 volt connectors;

● Impact resistance to accidental stone impacts during rail operation 12v heavy duty connector, etc.

However, the mechanical application conditions of heavy duty crimp connectors are not as demanding. This means that customers must pay a premium for these relatively over-designed heavy duty waterproof electrical connectors. Rather than being a "Versailles" move, it's more a result of the over-design of the heavy duty 2 pin connector.
