Micro-D and Nanominiature TwistPin Connectors and Accessories

Benefits of the High Reliability Glenair Micro-D Connector

Proven Reliability under tough operating conditions

For applications where interconnect failure is simply not an option, the Glenair high-reliability Micro-D offers a wealth of performance benefits which far outweigh any potential cost savings realized by specifying a lesser caliber connector. If downtime is a critical concern, other connectors cannot match the long-term durability and performance advantages of the MIL-DTL-83513 Micro-D, which include:

Higher current ratings
Lower circuit resistance
Superior vibration and shock
Optimized EMI/RFI shielding
Broader operating temperature
Better damage resistance
Enhanced corrosion resistance
Better contact retention
Better environmental sealing

Fast Turnaround and Same-Day Availability

Are the Micro-D connectors and accessories you need either in stock or able to be manufactured in a short period of time? Glenair has built its reputation on fast turnaround and can deliver TwistPin products–from discrete connectors to complete assemblies–faster than anyone else in our business. We maintain the world's largest inventory of Micro-D connectors and accessories, all available for immediate shipment with no quantity or price minimums.

	Series 79 Micro-Crimp Connectors and Cables The Micro-D Connector with Crimp Contacts: Power, Signal and Coax
	Series 171 MicroStrips Now available with latch clips, Series 171 MicroStrips are intended for high reliability board-to-wire I/O and wire-to-wire applications. Rugged twistpin contacts are housed in molded thermoplastic strips from 1 to 30 positions. Choose solder cup, pre-wired or printed circuit board termination.
	Qwik Create MWDM Shielded Cable Assemblies (177-710 and 177-740) Featuring special Micro-D connectors with integral shield attachment platforms and ground springs, these shielded cable assemblies are terminated, tested and ready for immediate use.
	Micro-D Metal Shell Connectors for Harness Application Choose from solder cup connectors for in situ termination to a broad range of pre-terminated connector assemblies, including insulated wire, solid wire and special shielded cordsets—terminated, tested and equipped with your choice of overbraiding.
	Micro-D Metal Shell Printed Circuit Board Connectors Glenair supplies the entire range of popular PCB connectors, including vertical and right-angle through-hole versions as well as new surface mount designs. Choose from .100 in. pitch density products or our new .075 in. high-density connectors.
	Low Profile Single Row Metal Shell Microminiature Reducing connector package size, particularly connector height, is a priority for miniaturized electronic modules. Glenair supplies our low-profile, single row Micro-D connectors in all the popular designs, including solder cups, pre-wired pigtails, and through-hole PCB designs.
	Combo Micro-D For High Power Applications Glenair's Combo Micro-D's combine the reduced size and weight advantages of the Micro-D shell with power contacts for higher power requirements. Choose from solder cup versions and pre-wired assemblies.
	Micro-D Filter Connectors Glenair offers C and Pi filter arrays in seven filter classes and six layouts. Choose from solder cup versions, pre-wired pigtails, in-line filter adapters and printed circuit board versions.
	Micro-D Glass-Sealed Hermetic Connectors Glenair is the industry leader in the fabrication of fused-glass Micro-D hermetic connectors. Connector shells and contacts are machined from Kovar®, an iron-nickel-cobalt alloy. Choose from the weld mount version with solder cup contacts or the O-Ring equipped flange mount design.
	Micro-D Special Applications and Modifications This section of the catalog presents a range of common connector modifications available on most Micro-D designs. Use the provided mod-codes to create part numbers for connector with the Mod 474 Keying option, the Mod 497 Ground Spring option, the Mod 428 200® C Continuous Temperature option, and the Mod 429 Space Grade option.
	MIL-DTL-83513 Micro-D Connectors Glenair's Complete Micro-D Product Line includes all M83513 Micro-D connectors. Choose Solder Cup, Pre-Wired or PCB versions. Glenair M83513 connectors always use TwistPin contacts for high performance.
	MWD Series Micro-D Plastic Shell Choose from solder cup connectors for in situ termination to a range of pre-terminated connector assemblies, including insulated wire and solid wire designs. Plastic Micro-D's are smaller and lighter than the MWDM metal shell versions, but are not equipped with interfacial seals.
	Micro-D Backshells Glenair supplies the broadest range of Micro-D backshells and connector accessories in the world. Choose from EMI banding backshells with round and elliptical cable entries to shield socks, potting shells, and strain-reliefs. Selected designs are offered in split shell versions and/or in composite thermoplastic.
