RUGGED CONNECTORS FOR A RANGE OF APPLICATIONS
PEI-Genesis Standard K ® connectors are rugged, reliable, lightweight and easy to use. Standard K ® connectors were developed as aircraft connectors or for use in TV cameras and instrumentation, but are now used in applications as diverse as oil field equipment, shipboard circuit breakers, concert audio snakes, mass transit applications, and MRI machines. Standard K ® connectors are chemical-resistant and corrosion-resistant and have excellent electrical insulating properties and dimensional stability. The Standard K ® series is available in common layouts including 2 pin connectors, 4 pin connectors and 6 pin connectors, all the way up to 110 pins. The Standard K ® connector was originally an ITT Cannon plug and is now manufactured by Sure Seal Connections, a division of PEI-Genesis. For full details on PEI-Genesis Standard K ® connectors, see the product specifications below.

PEI-GENESIS STANDARD-K SERIES FEATURES
- Proven Design
Over 60 years of service in rugged, harsh environments.
- Superior Materials
Standard-K insulators are made of diallyl phthalate or phenolic, offering near perfect resistance to chemicals, superior electrical insulating properties, and excellent dimensional stability. Aluminum housings with a heavy, clear plating ensure a rugged, corrosion resistant interconnection.
- Quick Connect & Disconnect
Special Acme Threads lock the connector halves together and allow rapid mating and un-mating of the connector halves.
- Variety of Shell Styles
Straight or right angle cable-mounted plugs mate with two flange sizes of panel-mounted receptacles. All configurations are available with male or female contacts. Rotational polarization is a standard option to avoid mis-mating connector pairs when more than one connector with the same layout is used on the same system.
- Simple Assembly and Termination
Standard-K has no complicated parts, special tooling, or demanding wire preparation requirements. Assembly of the connector is simple and fool-proof using a soldering iron and a screw driver.
- Wide Range of Wire Gauges and Current Carrying Capabilities
Wire sizes from 26 through 4 AWG can be accommodated. Contacts are rated from 5 amps for a size #20 contact up to 80 amps for a size #4 contact.

PEI-GENESIS STANDARD-K SERIES EXAMPLE
STEP 1: CHOOSE SHELL SIZE LAYOUT BY NUMBER OF CONTACTS
Choose the contact arrangement from the layouts pictured on pages SK 6 and SK7 or the chart below. Layout designations include the shell size. The coupling diameter of the shells are as follows:
WK = 7/8"
GK = 1-3/16"
SK = 1-5/16"
NK = 1-9/16"
LK = 2-1/2"
Test Voltage 60 cps (ac rms)
Uses Coax Contacts (sold separately)**
* Size 20 contacts are gold plated. Size 16 are standard silver plated, optional gold plated (add -A95 suffix to part number). All other sizes are silver plated.
** Contact us for more information.
