Circular Connectors - Housings are an important part of circular connectors that provide physical support and protection for connectors. This housing is usually made of metal or high-strength plastic, which ensures the stable operation of the connector in complex and changeable environments. The design of the circular connector housing takes into account mechanical strength, electromagnetic shielding, protection level and other factors to meet the needs of different applications.

Circular Connectors-Housings In the field of industrial automation, circular connector housings have become an indispensable part of connecting various automation equipment and control systems because of their durability and easy maintenance. In the aerospace industry, in the face of extreme environmental conditions and demanding performance requirements, the circular connector housing ensures the reliable operation of the connector in extreme conditions such as high altitude, high speed, high temperature and low temperature by using high-strength materials, special surface treatment and precision sealing design. In addition, in many industries such as automotive electronics, medical equipment, communication equipment, energy and power, the circular connector shell also plays a key role, providing a solid guarantee for the stable connection and efficient operation of electrical and electronic equipment.

• 1. What are the types of circular connector shells?

  The types of circular connector shells mainly include metal and plastic. ‌
  The shell of a circular connector is usually made of materials such as metal or plastic to protect the electronic components inside. The shape of the shell is usually round or cylindrical, and this structure has a natural sturdiness and higher strength than any other shape. The material of the shell can be zinc alloy or PBT engineering plastic, which has good mechanical properties and durability, and can effectively protect the contacts, insulators and other key components inside the connector from the external environment.
  

• 2. How to remove the circular connector shell?

  ‌1. Use special disassembly tools‌: For circular connectors, the use of special disassembly tools can greatly simplify the disassembly process. These tools are usually designed with a chuck that can clamp the connector, making it easy to remove it from the shell. When using such a tool, make sure to align the connector correctly to avoid clamping the wrong part or damaging other parts.
  ‌2. Pay attention to details: During the disassembly process, each component should be carefully checked for damage and make sure that all bolt groups have been completely removed. Using appropriate tools, such as screwdrivers or crowbars, can avoid damage to parts. For threaded connectors, appropriate tools should be selected for disassembly to avoid using inappropriate tools to cause corners to be rounded or nuts to be damaged.
  ‌3. Follow the correct disassembly sequence‌: When disassembling the connector housing, the correct steps and sequence should be followed. For example, if the crimping contact

• 3. Connector shell material?

  ‌Plastic‌: Plastic connector shells usually have good insulation properties and low cost, and are suitable for some low-voltage and low-frequency application scenarios. Commonly used plastic materials are polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyamide (PA), polypropylene (PP), etc. Plastic materials are light, but may not be as durable as metal materials.
  ‌Metal‌: Metal connector housings have high wear resistance, corrosion resistance and mechanical strength, and are suitable for high-voltage, high-frequency, and high-speed transmission applications. Commonly used metal materials include ‌aluminum alloy, ‌stainless steel, copper, etc. Metal materials are strong, but the cost is high and may not be as light as plastic.
  ‌Alloy‌: Alloy connector housings combine the advantages of metal and plastic, with good mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. Commonly used alloy materials include ‌zinc alloy, ‌magnesium alloy, ‌aluminum-magnesium alloy, etc. Alloy materials combine the strength of me
