Why metal trumps plastic for NMEA 2000 connectors?

Installers had worked for years with lower-quality plastic connectors which were often prone to damage from over-tightening, warping, or snapping, meaning installations often needed to be revisited for cables and connectors to be replaced.

 

Metal connections are much stronger and hard-wearing than their plastic equivalents. These cables and connectors have been built to surpass the NMEA 2000 specification and are incredibly easy to use thanks to their ‘plug and play’ design.

 

In terms of water resistance, the connectors enjoy an IP67 rating when mated. We chose to create our range using the Micro cable size which allows for maximum flexibility without compromising on performance. Additionally, our T-pieces have been designed thicker to allow for flush mounting to bulkheads using screws, which ensures a strong, reliable fixing. Our choice of Nickel-plated Brass is extremely resistant to corrosion and rust, and won’t turn brittle.
