HERMETIC CONNECTORS, UNSEEN, YET INDISPENSIBLE.

Hermetic connectors and headers are unseen, yet indispensable elements on many space launch vehicles. Installed at the back of enclosures, they create the essential links between cables and electronic circuits.

Their innovative technology and reliable performance make it possible for these components to endure the ordeal of space flight.

AEROSPACE APPLICATIONS

Hermetic connectors are essential for today’s military and aerospace electronic systems. These small components play a critical role in reliably conveying electronic signals in harsh and challenging environments.

Despite the availability of hundreds of standard, off-the-shelf connector models, the industry’s desire for miniaturized electronic components is driving demand for proprietary designs that require some form of customization.
