Product Overview

The VEAM CIR Series connectors are versatile multipin connectors designed for harsh environment applications. Originally developed for transit applications, they have found acceptance in military, commercial, medical, geophysical, entertainment, nuclear, and aerospace sectors. These connectors are known for their reliability, cost-effectiveness, and ability to withstand extreme environmental conditions, including high shock and vibration resistance. They offer a quick disconnect coupling that surpasses MIL-DTL-5015 environmental requirements and are adopted by NATO as the standard connector for Ground Fighting Vehicles. ### Product Attributes
