Description

The SuperG55™ family of dry-mate deep-sea–high pressure connectors are a
revolutionary new design of the popular industry-standard used in countless ROV,
underwater camera, diver communications, lights, pan and tilts, and other subsea
applications.
Available in multiple shell sizes , the SuperG55™ is manufactured from 316L Stainless Steel
with insert molded contact assemblies designed for pressure-sealed applications up to
10K psi mated and unmated. Intermateable and intermountable with other “55” series
connectors, the Glenair solution introduces a long list of product innovations designed
to improve per formance and durability. Our PBOF versions, for example, utilize
easy-to-assemble threaded fittings which deliver both superior sealing performance
while reducing installation time. Other innovations include full-mate inspection
ports, improved solder cup contact design and more.
Cable plugs and receptacles available in attachable (userterminatable) versions as well as factory overmolded singleended whips.
