Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key dimensions and panel cut-out requirements for this right-angle M8 panel mount connector?
This 90-degree front-mount M8 male connector features a 17.5mm body length, stepped right-angle pin drop heights of 6.7mm to 15.4mm with 3.0mm solder tails, and requires an 8.1mm (+0.1/-0mm) panel cut-out with a 7.2mm (+0.1/-0mm) flat edge for panels up to 3.0mm thick.
How do the current and voltage ratings differ across the 3-pin to 8-pin right-angle M8 configurations?
The 3-pin (A-Code) and 4-pin (A/D-Code) configurations use 1.0mm contacts rated at 4A and 60V DC; the 5-pin (B-Code) uses 1.0mm contacts rated at 3A and 30V DC; the 6-pin (0.7mm contacts) and 8-pin (0.6mm contacts) models are rated at 1.5A and 30V DC.
How does this right-angle M8 PCB connector achieve EMI shielding and IP67 environmental protection?
It combines a nickel-plated copper alloy threaded shell for 360-degree EMI shielding with a black NBR panel O-ring and black epoxy resin potting around the 90-degree gold-plated copper alloy pins, ensuring IP67 waterproof sealing under IEC 61076-2-104 when mated.
When should engineers choose a right-angle M8 PCB receptacle over a straight through-hole version?
Right-angle M8 PCB receptacles allow the mating interface to project horizontally through an enclosure side wall while soldering directly onto a parallel mainboard, eliminating internal wire harnesses in compact fieldbus splitters, PLCs, and industrial cameras.

Overview and Application Notes

This shielded M8 right-angle device connector plug features a 90-degree male pin configuration engineered for front panel mount through-hole PCB solder termination. Built to IEC 61076-2-104 standards, it supports A-Code, B-Code, and D-Code orientations across 3, 4, 5, 6, and 8 positions. The nickel-plated copper alloy housing, NBR O-ring seal, and black epoxy potting provide IP67 waterproof sealing in the locked mating state, making it ideal for low-profile horizontal PCB mounting in industrial automation enclosures.

Key Features

  • 90-Degree Right-Angle PCB Pins: Stepped right-angle solder tails (6.7 mm, 9.9 mm, 12.5 mm, and 15.4 mm vertical drop profiles with 3.0 mm solder leads) enable parallel board-to-panel integration.
  • Multi-Coding & Pin Options: Available in 3-Pin (A-Code), 4-Pin (A/D-Code), 5-Pin (B-Code), 6-Pin (A-Code), and 8-Pin (A-Code) male plug configurations.
  • Robust EMI Shielding & Sealing: Nickel-plated copper alloy threaded shell with black epoxy resin potting and NBR O-ring delivers IP67 ingress protection when properly mated.
  • Electrical Performance: Rated at 4A / 60V DC (3-Pin and 4-Pin), 3A / 30V DC (5-Pin), and 1.5A / 30V DC (6-Pin and 8-Pin) with gold-plated copper alloy contacts.
  • Industrial Durability: Supports 500 or more mating cycles across an operating temperature range of -40°C to +80°C, fully compliant with RoHS directives.

Engineering Specifications & PCB Integration

Engineered for compact bulkhead and enclosure assembly, this right-angle M8 male receptacle requires a D-shaped anti-rotation panel cut-out of 8.1 mm (+0.1/-0 mm) diameter with a 7.2 mm (+0.1/-0 mm) flat edge, accommodating a maximum panel thickness of 3.0 mm. The connector housing measures 17.5 mm in horizontal length with an M8x1.0 mating thread (5.3 mm front projection, 2.0 mm flange) and an SW7.1 hex nut. The 90-degree bent PCB solder pins extend 3.0 mm at the board interface for reliable through-hole wave or hand soldering on horizontal industrial controller, sensor, and fieldbus PCBs.
