Product Description
M12 IP67 Waterproof Connector
Plastic Straight/Right Angled Solder Assembled Male Female Cable Plug 2 3 4 5 6 8 12 17 PIN
Product Overview
The M12 Waterproof Plug is the most widely used circular interconnect in factory automation, featuring an M12×1.0 threaded coupling nut and standardized under IEC 61076-2-101 (sensor/actuator A/B-code) and IEC 61076-2-109 (D/X-code Ethernet). It mates with any standard M12 panel receptacle or M12 cordset, delivering IP67 sealing (optional IP68/IP69K) when properly locked with the correct O-ring and cable gland.
Available as field-wireable screw/solder/IDC plug or molded-with-cable cordset in straight or 90° configurations, male or female gender, and plastic (PA66+GF) or 360°-shielded metal shell options. It carries 4 A / 250 V on A-coded 3-4 pin builds and serves 24 VDC sensors, IO-Link, PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, and compact power feeds.
Key Benefits
- Field-Wireable Installation: Screw-terminal version accepts 0.25-0.75 mm² (24-18 AWG) wire with no crimp gun or soldering iron required
- Superior Protection: IP67 rating when locked, with optional IP68/IP69K for harsh environments
- Versatile Performance: 4 A / 250 V A-code, D-code 100 Mbps, X-code 10 Gbps capabilities
- Safe Connection: Mechanical coding prevents mismating between different port types
- Durable Construction: Gold-plated brass/phosphor-bronze contacts, ≤5 mΩ resistance, ≥500 mating cycles
- Multiple Configurations: Straight / 90° / panel / PCB mounting options available
- Inventory Efficiency: Lower SKU count than molded cordsets with flexible cable length options

Competitive Advantages
vs Pre-molded M12 Cordset: Field-wireable version eliminates factory lead time for custom lengths, reduces SKU count by 50%, enables repair instead of replacement, and eliminates offcut waste
vs M8 Plug: Higher current capacity (4 A vs 3 A), more pin options (up to 17 pins), D/X Ethernet coding capability, same locking mechanism
vs Junction Box + PG Gland + Terminal Block: Coded keying prevents miswiring, sealed face connection, direct PCB/panel mounting, no loose internal connections
vs RJ45 on Cabinet Door: M12 threaded locking survives vibration and oil mist; D/X-code carries PROFINET natively at IP67 rating
Applications
- Factory automation: proximity/photoelectric sensors, valve islands, IO-Link masters, conveyor encoder taps
- Industrial Ethernet: D-code 4-pin 100 Mbps PROFINET/EtherNet/IP, X-code 8-pin Gigabit camera drops
- Machine building & retrofit: custom non-standard machines, lab automation, field repair of damaged sensor leads
- Robotics & AGV: wrist-tool sensors, cobot end-effector power+signal, drag-chain sensor extensions
- Outdoor & transport: streetlight controller sensor port, solar combiner auxiliary, railway wayside telemetry
- Food/pharma (molded PUR/IP69K build): washdown machine sensors, clean-in-place vision heads
