Frequently Asked Questions
What alloy materials are used in the die cast housing construction?
CZT primarily uses zinc alloy (Zamak series) and aluminum alloy (ADC12 / A380) for die cast connector housings. Zinc alloys offer superior surface finish and tighter tolerances for smaller housings, while aluminum alloys provide a better strength-to-weight ratio for larger assemblies. Material selection is confirmed based on application requirements at the design stage.
How does the integrated strain relief protect cable terminations?
The integrated strain relief clamps the cable outer jacket within the die cast housing, transferring tensile and bending loads from the cable to the housing rather than to the individual conductor terminations. This prevents conductor fatigue and contact loosening in applications where cables are subject to repeated movement, pulling, or vibration.
Is this assembly available in IP-rated versions for outdoor or wet environments?
Yes, IP-rated versions with elastomeric sealing gaskets and sealed cable entry are available, achieving IP65 or IP67 ratings depending on configuration. These are suitable for outdoor installations, wash-down environments, and marine applications. Specify the required IP rating when ordering to ensure correct sealing components are included.
