SCOPE OF APPLICATION | APPLICATION

Field-wireable M12 connectors | Contour and material modification of the pressure screw

MODIFICATION

  • The design of the item will be modified to meet the requirements for lead-free production and to ensure long-term availability.
  • In future, the affected area will be made of die-cast zinc, in line with the other housing parts of the connector.
  • A change in the geometry of the pressure screw is technically necessary to ensure that the material and manufacturing requirements are met. The changeover will result in a consistent material concept and a harmonized appearance.

CONFIRMATION OF WARRANTED CHARACTERISTICS

  • The guaranteed electrical and mechanical properties will remain at least equivalent.
  • The contour change also has no influence on the overall dimensions of the respective connector.

DATE OF MODIFICATION

  • The changes will be implemented starting in early September 2025.
  • Mixed deliveries may occur as the item numbers remain the same so stock and changed products may be included in the same shipment.
