Description:
Amphenol’s Ram-Lock Push-Pull interface is now available in the 38999 family of products!
Featuring a positive locking interface, the Ram-Lock is perfect for applications where accidental unmating is a concern. The user must pull on the operating sleeve of the plug to unmate rather than pulling on the cable. Lanyards can be added for a variety of applications such as emergency disconnect or ejection. Utilizing ball bearings for locking and a traditional D38999 EMI band, performance is more comparable to a traditional Military specification circular connector. Throw in the fact 38999 Ram-Lock uses Mil-qualified insert assemblies and you have the perfect drop in push-pull
replacement for your system.
