M16 IP67 Outdoor Equipment Waterproof Connector​

1. Powerful protection capability

The M16 waterproof connector has an IP67/IP68 protection rating, which effectively prevents dust and moisture from entering. Even if it is immersed in 1 meter deep water for a long time, it can maintain stable operation, especially suitable for humid or submerged environments. Regardless of extreme weather conditions, it can still ensure the reliability and safety of equipment operation.

2. Excellent current and voltage carrying capacity

The M16 connector has higher current and voltage handling capabilities, supports currents of 10A and above, and is suitable for applications with 12V, 24V or higher voltages. This makes it an ideal choice for power connections in high-power equipment and industrial facilities, and can meet more complex electrical needs.

3. Strong durability

The connector shell is made of corrosion-resistant and impact-resistant metal (such as brass or zinc alloy) or high-strength plastic material, which can effectively cope with external physical damage and chemical corrosion. Whether in severe cold, high temperature or corrosive environment, the M16 connector can operate stably for a long time, greatly improving the service life of the equipment.

4. Multiple pin configuration options

The M16 connector provides a variety of options from 2 pins to 24 pins to meet various power, signal and data transmission needs. This flexibility allows it to be widely used in industrial automation, communications, measuring instruments and other fields to meet different connection requirements.

5. Reliable electrical performance and convenient installation design

The connector uses gold-plated or silver-plated contact points inside to ensure low contact resistance and excellent conductivity, reduce signal loss, and ensure efficient power and data transmission. In addition, the M16 connector adopts a threaded locking design to prevent loosening caused by vibration or external force and ensure stable connection. The plug-and-play design makes installation and disassembly easier without too many tools, greatly reducing the difficulty and time of on-site maintenance.

Performance Meets

Electrical Stability: Gold-plated contacts ensure contact resistance <10mΩ, minimizing power loss for 12V/24V industrial systems.

Mechanical Impact Resistance: Withstands 10J impact tests (IEC 60068), surviving accidental drops or debris strikes in factories.

Wide Temperature Range: Operates from -40°C to 100°C, suitable for cold storage warehouses and high-temperature manufacturing lines.

Which shell material is better for my application—metal or plastic?

Choose metal (brass) for high-current (8-10A) or corrosive environments; plastic is cost-effective for low-current (≤8A) setups like small sensors.

Can the M16 connector be used with 48V industrial systems?

Yes, the metal shell variant supports up to 48V, but we recommend confirming your system’s current draw (max 10A) to avoid overheating.

How do I install the threaded locking mechanism correctly?

Screw the connector until it’s hand-tight, then use a wrench to turn it 1/4 turn—this ensures a waterproof seal without damaging the threads.
