The TriMAXX 7-way Sealed Plug System helps minimize truck downtime with an integrated plug-face gasket that creates a positive seal to the receptacle, stopping corrosion from reaching the terminals.
The TriMAXX plug face gasket is made of durable PVC and encircles the terminal area, creating a sealed union regardless of the receptacle’s manufacturer, the company said. It features over-molded terminals designed to prevent corrosion migration that often attacks plug and socket connections due to contaminants back flowing down the cable. A drip edge channel was designed to extend the life of both the plug and socket by redirecting corrosive liquids away from the plug/socket connection.
Sloan also said that its MAXXDuty USA-Plus Electrical Wiring Harnesses utilize a secondary pin-lock and an integral “O-ring” style sealing protection that’s molded into the connector, designed to help prevent moisture from reaching the terminal areas.
The harnesses feature ultrasonic welded splice joints that minimize current loss by providing positive contact, the company said. Using a virgin PVC mold compound, the harnesses are engineered for added durability and longer life. A durable cable jacket is designed to resist oils, acids, alkalis, sunlight, heat, weathering and abrasion.
