They are designed to allow for uncoupling during repairs, which helps reduce damage to the boot, resulting in a simple and fast termination option.

HARRISBURG, Pa. – TE Connectivity in Harrisburg, Pa., is introducing the 70 series braid tail swept elbow connector backshells for military and aerospace applications.

The 70 series can save designers as much as 20 percent weight over traditional backshells to improve efficiency as content continues to grow in military and aerospace systems.

The 70 series swept elbow connector backshells include a pre-terminated screenbraid sock for an overall screen, as well as constant internal radius and a smooth internal bore using investment casting.

These connector backshells also offer overall 360-degree screening against EMI/RFI for users in high-vibration applications using high-reliability, low profile magna form ring termination.

TE's 70 series swept elbow connector backshells suit a wide range of circular connectors and they are available in several shell sizes and plating configurations, including MIL-DTL-38999 series III and IVm as well as MIL-DTL-26482 series II.
