38999 series connector

FEATURES AND BENEFITSThe Tri-Start Connector is the high performance choice in the D38999 Family. Originally designed in order to increase the performance levels of MIL-DTL-38999 Series I and II, the Series III was created to meet high performance connector criteria. Aluminum is the standard choice for shells but we offer composite, Clutch-Lok, and stainless steel (see above tabs for specific information). Dynamic features for performance and reliability that were needed for military, aerospace and ground vehicle applications were designed into the Series III that include: Rapid coupling via a triple-start threadShell-to-shell or metal-to-metal bottomingImproved EMI shieldingThe Tri-Start Family of connectors has grown and expanded since its original addition to the 38999 series in order to meet ever-evolving interconnection product needs. Today, the Tri-Start family has styles and options that cover a very wide range to meet not only the highest performance needs of space applications, but also general duty connector needs.The Tri-Start Connector Series is second to none in terms of versatility and customer options.
