CW mass terminated Insulation Displacement Connectors are designed to provide a highly reliable, long term, connection at every position. The CW connectors feature the unique, patented TORQ-TITETM contact design that creates dual twisting and cantilever forces between the conductor and contact to assure an absolute gas tight connection. Other significant design advantages of the CW product includes ruggedness of construction, ease of assembly, integral strain relief options, choice of contact materials and plating finishes.
The complete series of DIP, PCB, Socket, Header, Card Edge and D-Subminiature Connectors meets both commercial and applicable Military Specifications and offers direct interchangeability with other industry standard Insulation Displacement Connectors.
Standardization of IDCs has been promoted and supported by the requirements of MIL-DTL-83503 and MIL-DTL-24308. These specifications have proven useful, not only by tending to increase the performance levels that IDC manufacturers strive to achieve, but by setting up general criteria that lead to predictable performance and interchangeability.
CW connectors are designed not only for reliability, but also for ease of use in many applications. Cover types for strain relief, daisy-chaining, or cable end protection are available. Light or heavy gold over nickel plated contacts or tin-lead or tin plated contacts are available to suit specific applications.
