2M Ram-Lock Push-Pull Connector Series

Amphenol's 2M ram-lock push-pull connector series allows for consistent and reliable engagement between the plug and receptacle

Image of Amphenol Aerospace's 2M Ram-Lock Push-Pull Connector Series Amphenol's 2M ram-lock push-pull connector series features a positive locking interface and is perfect for applications where accidental unmating is a concern. The user must pull on the operating sleeve of the plug to unmate rather than pulling on the cable. Utilizing ball bearings for locking and a traditional D38999 EMI band for shell-to-shell conductivity allows for much more consistent and reliable engagement between the plug and receptacle.

Important Note: Plug and receptacle terminology is reversed compared to 2M804. This is because the user pulls on the operating sleeve to disengage rather than the cable. For example, 2M804-003 is known as a "receptacle," 2M RAM-003 is a "plug."
