Eaton 85100A1418PY50 Receptacle - MIL-DTL-26482 SI

MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualification and an 18‑contact configuration provide a robust, standards-based interface for demanding programs. The design supports high mating cycle durability, shock resistance, and reliable signal integrity in aerospace, defense, and industrial automation installations. This receptacle reduces field maintenance, minimizes downtime, and aids compliant assembly with common harness practices. Aluminium shell with cadmium plating delivers a favorable strength-to-weight ratio and proven wear resistance, offering EMI/RFI shielding and a durable surface finish for frequent mating cycles, vibration, and temperature swings. Weight reduction helps overall system efficiency and can lower lifecycle costs. The square flange receptacle with a straight adaptor simplifies panel mounting and field retrofit, while 1/3 bayonet coupling enables quick mating with a secure lock and rapid serviceability in constrained spaces. The Y orientation supports compact harness routing, improving installation ergonomics and reliability. Delivered with connector options and solder cup male contacts support immediate integration into existing harnesses, aligning with typical control and power architectures. This 18-pin layout reduces wiring complexity and enhances traceability, while cadmium plating and aluminium shell maintain conductivity and mechanical integrity across the -40 °C to 125 °C range. Environmental and regulatory alignment, including REACH compliance, helps meet supplier and customer expectations for modern, defensible assemblies.
