Twist-Locking Barrel Connectors

GlobTek’s twist-lock barrel connectors feature a mechanism that latches these connectors firmly onto mating jacks, thus eliminating disconnections from shocks, jostling, vibrations, and accidental tugs that can easily disconnect standard barrels. The smart design maintains a slim, low-profile shape with a similar form factor and appearance to traditional barrels. These connectors provide workability like locking barrel plugs, corresponding locking jacks, and locking T-plugs. With a 5.5 mm outer diameter (OD) and inner diameter (ID) sizes of either 2.1 mm or 2.5 mm, they effortlessly integrate into a range of setups.

The locking barrel plug serves as the fundamental female DC barrel, excluding the wire connection. It engages by rotating the plug after secure insertion, effectively locking it into a jack. These locking plugs are indispensable for adapting to initial production design or integrating into current prototype iterations with reliable, standards-based connectivity, offering a hassle-free connection. Users can upgrade creations with the versatile locking barrel plugs, guaranteeing designs stay easily and precisely connected. Overmolded lock and barrel connectors are also available as a standard option across GlobTek's entire range of power supplies, wire harnesses, and cable assemblies to promote robust connections.

Users can experience seamless integration into end systems with fail-safe connectivity by utilizing locking plugs that perfectly match their corresponding jacks in the device application. Beyond the mechanical accuracy, GlobTek's perfectly aligned jacks offer an exceptional advantage for conducting electrical tests, maintaining unwavering power, and data transmission. This plug-and-jack harmony is pivotal for troubleshooting, automated test equipment deployment, and diverse parametric tests throughout the design and manufacturing phases. Enhanced solutions go further with GlobTek's commitment to innovation by adding locking capability into conventional standard T00 power adapters using cutting-edge locking T-plugs. When confronted with unavailable power supply connectors, the T00 plug system resolves this issue. Instantly access hundreds of power supply configurations from stock and elevate flexibility with advanced locking T-plugs.
