VL CONNECTOR
6.2mm pitch/Disconnectable Crimp style Wire-to-wire connectors
The VL connector is a 6.2mm pitch wire-to-
wire connector designed for circuits
requiring up to 20A (1 or 2-circuit with
AWG #12 wire).
• Housing lances for contact retention
• Secondary retainer
•
Suited for circuits with high power requirements
• Panel lock construction
