Bulgin 12734/1 Mini Buccaneer 8 Pole Solder Contact Carrier Insert Plug

The Bulgin 12734/1 is an 8-contact plug insert from the Mini Buccaneer range, designed for use with solder-terminated contacts in compact circular connector assemblies. Suitable for demanding industrial, automation and electronic equipment applications, it forms part of Bulgin's modular Mini Buccaneer system, allowing users to configure connectors using a combination of casings, inserts and contacts.

This contact carrier insert accommodates 8 solder contacts and is compatible with all Mini Buccaneer body styles, including flex cable, inline cable and panel mounting connector housings. The insert is supplied without contacts, enabling users to select the appropriate solder contacts separately to suit their application requirements.

Designed for reliable performance in harsh environments, the Mini Buccaneer system provides IP68 environmental protection when mated, offering excellent resistance to dust and water ingress while maintaining a compact form factor for installations where space is limited.
