Eaton 85100E2016P50 Receptacle - MIL-DTL-26482 SI Qualified
Part Number: 85100E2016P50
Quick Summary
Eaton Souriau 85100E2016P50 receptacle provides MIL-DTL-26482 SI-qualified, high-reliability electrical connections for harsh environments. Engineers often wrestle with hard-to-wire panels, mating misalignment, and unreliable contacts in demanding programs. It carries MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualification and REACH compliance, with a lightweight aluminium shell designed for -40 to 125 °C, supporting rugged aerospace and defense use. Designed for panel integration, it supports 16 circuits and solder-cup terminations, delivering fast, error-free wiring and long service life. The backnut mounting, square flange geometry, and 1/3 bayonet coupling simplify installation in confined spaces while providing robust retention under vibration. This combination translates to fewer field failures and a more predictable supply chain for mission-critical equipment.

FAQs
Yes. The 85100E2016P50 uses the 851-series interface with a 16-position layout and 1/3 bayonet coupling, designed for quick, reliable mating. It features a backnut and square flange receptacle compatible with common panel cutouts and standard 20-shell sizing, simplifying panel integration and reducing the risk of misalignment during assembly.
Key specs include 16 solder-cup contacts, pin (male) contact type, cadmium plating, aluminium shell, and a -40 to 125 °C operating range. The backnut, straight backshell, and 1/3 bayonet coupling support secure mating under vibration. REACH compliance ensures regulatory alignment for environmentally sensitive applications.
Yes. The MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualification and square flange receptacle design make it well-suited for aerospace and defense environments where reliability under vibration and temperature extremes is critical. Its 16-position layout and robust mounting accommodate dense wiring in avionics racks, ground support equipment, and rugged control panels.
This receptacle is REACH compliant, reflecting emphasis on environmental responsibility. Cadmium plating is a noted feature and may require careful handling per supplier and regulatory guidelines. Users should validate specific regulatory requirements for cadmium-containing components in their markets and applications.
With delivered-with-connector readiness, 16 pre-wired positions, and a backnut panel-mount design, maintenance intervals shorten and wire integrity improves. Fewer part numbers streamline BOM management, while the durable aluminium/cadmium-plated build reduces field failures, contributing to lower total cost of ownership in high-reliability deployments.
