Product Features
- Preloaded Nitrile Rubber (NBR) Seal: The female plug housing (174262-2) comes pre-fitted with an internal rubber ring seal to prevent dust, oil, and moisture infiltration.
- High-Grade Material Construction: Manufactured using Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT). This specialized plastic offers high resistance to automotive engine chemicals, fuel, stress cracking, and vibrations.
- Polarizing Alignment Ribs: Engineered with physical exterior guide rails that prevent the connectors from being pushed together upside down or mismatched, completely removing the risk of bending terminal contacts during tight-space installations.
- Integrated Lock Lever: The housing body uses a native click-lock mechanism to firmly secure the mate, meaning the connection cannot wiggle loose under engine-hood vibrations.
- High-Vibration Latching: Exterior flexible plastic arm locks securely onto the mating cap.
