Sure-Seal Sure-Seal Low cost, high reliability A one-piece resilient body and rugged multiple moisture seals make Sure-Seal connectors a natural for applications where outside contaminants must be excluded. Sure-Seal is reliable and uncomplicated. Only two parts are required to complete a connector: the connector body, and the contacts. Sure-Seal was developed to address Department of Transportation safety regulations for connectors used in automobiles. Since then, Sure-Seal has been successfully used in a broad range of environmental applications where a small, low cost connector is needed. These sealed connectors meet or exceed DOT requirements for shock, vibration, temperature cycling, salt water spray and immersion, petroleum derivatives, industrial gas, all the while insuring low milli-volt drop and low contact resistance. Existing applications include motorcycles, automo- biles, boats, and a wide range of demanding off-road vehicle uses. Sure-Seal will operate in temperatures from -40F to +221F under conditions of high humidity, severe vibration, ice and mud. Sealing integrity is maintained with exposure to brake fluid, gasoline, diesel fuel, anti-freeze, ultraviolet, ozone, and steam. Wet, humid, or dirty environments Automotive Trucks and Buses Applications requiring a low cost, small and reliable Marine Off-road Vehicles sealed connector Appliances Industrial Machinery Low Voltage Lighting Systems Low Installed Cost are required. Bodies mate using multiple Features One piece molded bodies and crimp resilient seals and will remain mated even contacts provide a low cost solution. In under severe vibration and shock. addition, these connectors can be easily terminated by the user.

Three Sure-Seal Versions Sure-Seal is available in three versions. The Wide Range of Wire Gauges and basic Sure-Seal line is the broadest and Current Carrying Capability ideal for most applications. Mini-Sure-Seal Up to 85 amps with wire gauges from size provides a slightly smaller connector in a 20 up to size 4 AWG wire. limited range of configurations. Power One-Piece Connector Sure-Seal is for single circuit, high power Sure-Seal has a simple one-piece molded applications. body.
