Amphenol 6-Way IDC Socket with Strain Relief, 2.54mm Pitch

The Amphenol 6-Way IDC Socket with Strain Relief is a high-reliability connector designed for secure and durable cable termination. It utilises Insulation Displacement Contact (IDC) technology, allowing for quick, tool-free assembly by displacing wire insulation to form a gas-tight connection. This design ensures excellent electrical conductivity and long-term reliability, making it a favoured choice for industrial applications.

Constructed with precision, the socket features phosphor bronze contacts that are gold plated for superior corrosion resistance and stable, low-contact resistance. The insulator is made from a robust, glass-reinforced thermoplastic/PBT material, rated UL94V-0 for flame retardancy, ensuring safety and durability in demanding environments. The integrated strain relief is a critical feature, providing robust mechanical support to the cable connection point. This prevents wire pull-out and protects the electrical joints from vibration, tension, and everyday wear, significantly extending the lifespan of the wiring assembly.

With a 2.54mm pitch and a black colour finish, this connector is a standard component in many electronic and control systems. Its specifications include a minimum insulation resistance of 1000MΩ and a rated voltage of 250VAC/RMS at 60Hz, confirming its suitability for a wide range of low-voltage power and signal applications. The cable-mount design facilitates straightforward integration into harnesses and assemblies, offering a compact and reliable interconnection solution.
