Anderson Power P992G1-BK
SB 50 Connectors
Product Overview
The SB 50 connectors, building on a design pioneered by Anderson in 1953, are the industry standard for DC power distribution and battery connections. These two-pole connectors feature a robust one-piece plastic housing with stainless steel springs to secure low-resistance contacts. Designed to accommodate wire sizes from 16 to 6 AWG (1.5 to 13.3 mm), the SB 50 series offers a reliable and versatile solution for various power applications. Key advantages include low resistance silver or tin-plated copper contacts for high current ratings up to 120 amps, UL rating for hot-plugging up to 50 amps, and a flexible connection system supporting wire, PCB, and busbar contacts.
