SB® 50 Connectors
- up to 120 amps
| SB50® ORDERING INFORMATION |
Based off the design pioneered by Anderson in 1953, the
two pole SB® connectors set the standard for DC power
distribution and battery connections. SB®50 connectors
feature a one piece plastic housing using stainless steel
springs to hold low resistance contacts in place. Wires
sizes from #16 (1.5 mm²) to #6 (13.3 mm²) are held in
the smallest of the SB® series housings.
• Low Resistance Silver or Tin Plated Copper Contacts
Allows UL rated currents up to 120 amps
• UL Rated for Hot Plugging up to 50 Amps
Great for battery or other applications where the ability to
interrupt circuits is required
• Wire, PCB, and Busbar Contacts
Allows one connection system to meet multiple needs
SB®50 Standard Housings
The smallest SB® housings work with wire contacts up to
6 AWG [10 mm²] as well as PCB, and busbar contacts.
Genderless design mates with itself. Mechanical keys are
color coded.
