Product Description
M16 4-Pin Male Plug and Female Socket IP68 Waterproof Quick Lock Connector
Designed for outdoor solar power and garden lighting systems, this M16 quick-lock connector delivers reliable performance in demanding environments.
Product Overview
The M16 Quick-Lock Waterproof Plug is a mid-size circular interconnect featuring a 16 mm coupling body with a push-lock/bayonet quick-release mechanism. This innovative design allows for secure mating and sealing in one simple push-and-turn motion—eliminating the need for wrenches, multi-turn threading, or heat shrink.
Positioned between M12 (sensor-grade, ≤4 A) and M20 (heavy power, 20 A) in the industrial connector hierarchy, it delivers up to 10 A per contact at 300 V AC/DC with IP67 (optional IP68) sealing in a slim, glove-friendly shell.
Key Benefits
- One-hand click lock for 3-second mating—ideal for lamp posts, solar rails, and rack installations
- 10 A / 300 V capacity in compact 16-mm shell—supports LED fixtures, battery taps, and sensor clusters
- IP67 standard, IP68 optional—resists rain, hose-down, dust, UV, and electrolyte mist
- Field cut-to-length capability—screw-terminal or solder-cup inserts accept 0.3-1.5 mm² wire
- Keyed anti-miswire design with color-coded shells—prevents reversed polarity on DC battery links
- Industrial-grade contacts and shell—copper-alloy pins with gold or tin/silver plating
- Vibration-proof and reusable—withstands 5-200 Hz vibration and 500-3000 mating cycles
- Reduces SKU count—replaces field splices, tape, and small junction boxes

Competitive Advantages
vs Threaded M12: 2.5× higher current capacity (10 A vs 4 A), one-hand mating, better for power+signal combinations
vs Threaded M20: 35% smaller profile, lighter BOM cost, sufficient for ≤10 A applications
vs Junction Box + Tape: IP-rated click seal, no seized lid screws, reusable design, 70% faster field joining
vs Anderson/SB/Blade Connectors: Fully sealed, keyed, polarized, clean appearance on outdoor fixtures
Applications
- Outdoor LED & street lighting—luminaire power and dimming connections
- Solar & storage systems—PV module auxiliary feeds, solar tracker harnesses
- Industrial automation—sensor clusters, pneumatic valve islands, encoder extensions
- Robotics & AGV—end-effector tool changers, mobile robot power drops
- Transport & rail—wayside telemetry, train cab signaling
- Marine / RV / agriculture—deck lighting, tractor implement connections
