Overview
The Glenair 370XS002N2812M6-700P is a mil-spec environmental backshell and strain relief assembly engineered for circular connector applications in aerospace, defense, and industrial systems. This backshell combines direct coupling with environmental sealing to protect connectors from moisture, dust, and mechanical stress. Glenair backshells are purpose-built for mission-critical installations where connector integrity and long-term reliability are non-negotiable.
Key Features
- Environmental sealing with O-ring and cable grommet for IP67-equivalent protection
- Saddle clamp strain relief design minimizes cable flex stress at connector interface
- MIL-DTL-26500 compatible (unshielded jacketed cable)
- Direct coupling configuration for secure, indexed alignment
- Available in aluminum or stainless steel for corrosion resistance in harsh environments
- Stainless steel hardware (fillister head screws, lockwashers) for long-term durability
