Phillips Industries has introduced the new Sta-Dry QCMS2 plug/socket, designed to eliminate corrosion damage caused when road contaminants enter the electrical system of a heavy-duty vehicle.
The Sta-Dry QCMS2 incorporates a seal that semi-hardwires the electrical cable to the tractor, which the company said completely stops any debris from entering. The other end of the electrical cable features Phillips’ field repairable QCP plug. If the plug begins to show signs of corrosion, its cartridge can be replaced while keeping the QCMS2 attached to the tractor without breaking its sealed connection.
The QCMS2 also features a corrosion-free housing that is completely sealed for protection against magnesium and calcium chlorides. A special bonding process connecting the housing to the cable seals out moisture and contaminants, the maker added.
