42642-3

TE Connectivity AMP Connectors's 42642-3 delivers military-spec Terminals - Wire to Board Connectors solutions for harsh environment applications, meeting stringent MIL-DTL-38999 requirements. This rugged circular connector system excels in naval, aerospace, and ground vehicle applications where reliability is mission-critical.The Through Board design incorporates triple-start threaded coupling with visual torque indicators, ensuring proper mating in low-visibility field conditions.With 0.072" (1.83mm) specifications, the terminal accommodates coaxial, triaxial, and high-voltage contacts within the same shell size for maximum configuration flexibility.The 0.100" (2.54mm) range has been tested to withstand 500+ hours salt fog exposure while maintaining >1000M insulation resistance.The 0.545" (13.84mm) configuration provides optimal EMI shielding effectiveness (>100dB at 1GHz) for sensitive avionics and communications equipment.Certified for 20-22 AWG wiring, the terminal exhibits vibration resistance up to 20G across all three axes while maintaining electrical continuity.Brass formulation has been specially engineered to prevent stress corrosion cracking in marine environments while maintaining 500+ mating cycles.The Tin-Lead surface treatment incorporates precious metal diffusion barriers that prevent fretting corrosion during prolonged vibration exposure.
