Bulgin PXP7010/03S/ST/1315 7000 Series Buccaneer 3 Pole Flex Cable Socket

The Bulgin PXP7010/03S/ST/1315 is a sealed circular flex cable connector from the 7000 Series Buccaneer range, designed to provide secure power connections in demanding industrial, outdoor and marine environments. The connector combines a rapid quarter-turn locking mechanism with proven environmental sealing, making it suitable for applications where protection against dust and water ingress is essential.

This connector features 3 socket contacts with screw terminal termination and is supplied with a light grey cable gland assembly suitable for cable diameters from 13mm to 15mm. The quarter-turn locking system provides fast, secure connection with positive feedback to help ensure correct mating and sealing.

Its robust thermoplastic construction, high ingress protection ratings and 25A current capacity make it ideal for power distribution and equipment interconnections in harsh operating environments. The 3-contact version also incorporates a leading earth contact arrangement for enhanced safety.
