Everything You Need to Know About Waterproof Connectors

What is a waterproof connector?

The waterproof connector is one kind of connector that integrally forms the contact, shell body, and other conductive parts into the interior part of a shell made of insulating resin. Through integrated forming, the surface of the conductive part buried in the shell is attached to the insulating resin by using the forming shrinkage force of the insulating resin, which can prevent water from the outside of the connector through the boundary between the shell and the conductive part to the inside of the connector.

What industries are waterproof connectors used in?

Waterproof connectors are widely used in industrial environments, such as LED lighting, urban outdoor lighting projects, lighthouses, cruise ships, aviation, industrial equipment, cables, sprinklers, and so on. Especially in the military field which has strict requirements, waterproof connectors are necessary and classified carefully such as waterproof connectors for submarines, submarine-launched missiles, etc.

In addition, the waterproof connector can also be used in household environments, such as farms, greenhouses, fish ponds, and so on due to its good waterproof performance and small and delicate appearance. With continuous upgrading, waterproof connectors also play an important role in the field of new energy.

For nearly 80 years, the waterproof connector industry has focused on designing and producing technological and innovative waterproof connectors to change the way people live, work, and connect.
