Technical Specifications - J599/20FD03PN

Part Number Breakdown

Note: Common standard shell-size-D (15) layouts in this family are D5 (5 x #16), D15, D18, D19, D35 (37 x #22D), and D97. Arrangement D03 / 15-03 is not listed in the usual MIL-STD-1560 charts, so confirm the insert drawing with your supplier before ordering. Related finish option: J599/20WD03PN uses olive drab cadmium (W). There is no functional difference between J599 and D38999 prefixes for form-fit-function mating within the same Series III family.

Compatible Applications

The J599/20FD03PN square flange receptacle is intended for platforms that require EMI-capable threaded interconnects on shell size 15 panels. Typical use cases include:

• Aircraft and helicopter wiring harness panel interfaces
• Avionics LRUs, radar, and communication equipment
• Ground vehicles and rugged electronic enclosures
• Shipboard and outdoor equipment requiring sealed circular connectors
• Industrial systems that standardize on GJB599 / D38999 Series III interfaces

Selection Guide

Installation Notes

• Verify shell size, insert arrangement, contact gender, finish class, and keying before mating.
• Confirm arrangement D03 contact size, count, and tooling from the manufacturer chart before crimping.
• Mount the square flange securely to the panel and keep sealing surfaces clean.
• Fully engage the triple-start threaded coupling until the self-locking mechanism is seated.
• Select matching Series III plug and M85049 / GJB1784 accessories compatible with shell size 15.
