M8 4pin custom 90 degree or straight male/female connector cable

Short Description:

The M8 connector is a compact and robust electrical connector widely used in various industries and applications. It is known for its small form factor and high reliability, making it suitable for both data and power transmission in challenging environments. The “M” in M8 stands for “Metric,” indicating that it conforms to metric sizing standards.

The M8 connector typically features a circular design with threaded metal or plastic coupling nuts, allowing for secure and quick connections. Its pins or sockets are arranged in a circular pattern within the connector housing, and the number of pins can vary, commonly ranging from 2 to 8 pins. The pins are designed to transmit signals, power, or a combination of both, depending on the application.

One of the key advantages of the M8 connector is its resistance to environmental factors. Many M8 connectors are designed to be waterproof and dustproof, meeting IP67 or higher ratings. This makes them suitable for outdoor and industrial applications where exposure to moisture, dirt, and harsh conditions is common.

The M8 connector is commonly used in industries such as automation, manufacturing, robotics, and automotive. It is employed in sensors, actuators, industrial controllers, and other equipment where reliable and compact connectivity is essential.
