The RAPID LOCK connector
is a single-pole, quick
connect/disconnect replace-
ment for lug connections,
used in bus bar and back-
plane power distribution
applications. RAPID LOCK
connectors allow a reliable
and safe connection, as
well as better serviceability,
than bolt-fitted lugs. The
cable mounted sockets
have a right-angle configu-
ration, and feature an insu-
lator cap that provides the
retention mechanism on the
pin. The pin contacts can
be attached to a bus bar
by screw or swage, and to
a backplane by press fit
and backup screw.
Secure Power Distribution
By replacing power lugs
fitted using nuts and bolts,
the RAPID LOCK connector
offers an extremely secure
interconnect mechanism
that totally frees the power
distribution system from the
risk of loose connections,
which can cause arcing.
Safety Locking Feature
A locking feature is
provided on the pins for
protection against acciden-
tal unlatching of the cable.
Although connection of the
cable is easily performed
by hand, disconnection
requires a simple tool to
provide the leverage
needed to overcome the
locking feature.
Improved Ease of Service
Service in the field becomes
very easy with RAPID LOCK
connectors because there
are no nuts and washers to
lose in the equipment. The
RAPID LOCK connector is
available with red or black
color insulators.
CROWN BAND Technology
The RAPID LOCK connec-
tor enjoys all the benefits of
the ELCON CROWN BAND
technology, providing a
stable connection with
excellent mechanical and
electrical performance with
ratings up to 300 Amps
depending on wire gauge
and application.
Note: All RAPID LOCK Products in
this section are RoHS compliant.
