New plug/socket protected against elements

April 25, 2012

A new plug/socket from Phillips Industries has been designed to eliminate corrosion damage caused when road contaminants enter the electrical system of a heavy-duty vehicle.

The Sta-Dry QCMS2 incorporates a Sta-Dry seal that semi-hardwires the electrical cable to the tractor completely stopping any debris from entering, Phillips said.

The other end of the electrical cable features Phillips’ field repairable QCP plug. If the plug begins to show signs of corrosion, the cartridge can be easily replaced, keeping the QCMS2 attached to the tractor without breaking its corrosion-free sealed connection.

The housing is completely sealed for maximum protection using a special bonding process.
