Build to Print Mil-Spec Connectors
SCHOTT offers hermetically sealed standard military spec and custom-made connectors for defense and aerospace applications, which are made to meet high requirements in terms of ruggedness and reliability, such as resistance to high pressure and temperature cycling.
YOUR BENEFITS
- High quality standard mil-spec connectors: circular and rectangular connectors.
- Custom-made connectors: with special flanges, custom contact configuration, single glass beads for high pressure applications, double-ended military electrical feedthroughs.
- Value-added services including wire harnesses, PC boards (both commercial and defense), or welding services, offering a one-piece construction thereby helping our customers to reduce a weld operation and at the same time offer a much more robust part.
APPLICATIONS
Defense and aerospace applications, including MIL-standards and commercial equivalents, for example:
- (Pressure) sensors
- Transducers
- Piezo electronics
- Vibration sensors products for use in monitoring, e.g. gas detection
- Gyroscope applications
