The body is molded from Bakelite and neoprene, materials chosen for their resistance to moisture and rough marine environments, while the internal pins are machined brass for durable, low-resistance conductivity. The connector is polarized, meaning the two pins are sized differently so the plug can only be joined one way -- this eliminates the risk of reverse polarity when reconnecting wiring, a common source of electrical faults on boats.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis connector is rated for 3 amps at 12\/24VDC, suitable for lighting circuits, accessory wiring, and other low-draw 12V or 24V marine electrical runs. It accepts wire up to 14 gauge, with each conductor secured by a brass set screw for a solid mechanical and electrical connection that can be serviced without soldering. At just 0.06 pounds, it is a compact, lightweight addition to any DC wiring harness or repair kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sea-Dog\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 426162-1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pins:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Machined brass pins, molded Bakelite and neoprene body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAmperage Rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3 Amps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVoltage Rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12\/24 VDC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Wire Gauge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14 AWG\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWire Attachment:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brass set screws\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePin Spacing Dimension A:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-1\/4 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePin Spacing Dimension B:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-3\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.06 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 035514426237\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many pins does the Sea-Dog 426162-1 connector have?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Sea-Dog 426162-1 is a 2-pin polarized electrical connector, meaning it has two conductors housed in a single molded plug.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does 'polarized' mean for this connector?\u003c\/strong\u003e Polarized means the two pins on the Sea-Dog 426162-1 are sized differently, so the plug can only be inserted one correct way, preventing reverse polarity when the connector is disconnected and reconnected.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat amperage and voltage is the 426162-1 rated for?\u003c\/strong\u003e This connector is rated for 3 amps at 12\/24VDC, making it suitable for standard low-draw marine 12V or 24V electrical circuits.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat wire size does this connector accept?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Sea-Dog 426162-1 accepts wire up to 14 gauge, with each conductor secured by a brass set screw.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat material is the Sea-Dog 426162-1 connector made from?\u003c\/strong\u003e It is constructed of a molded Bakelite and neoprene body with machined brass pins for durable, corrosion-resistant electrical contact.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much does the 426162-1 connector weigh?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Sea-Dog 426162-1 weighs 0.06 pounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I attach wires to this connector?\u003c\/strong\u003e Wires are attached to the Sea-Dog 426162-1 using brass set screws, allowing for a secure connection without soldering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this connector suitable for outdoor or marine use?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes, the Bakelite and neoprene body of the Sea-Dog 426162-1 is designed to hold up in marine environments where moisture exposure is common.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the Sea-Dog 426162-1 include a matching plug or receptacle?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 426162-1 is the connector itself, with polarized machined brass pins designed to mate with its corresponding half in the Sea-Dog polarized connector series.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the pin spacing on the 426162-1 connector?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 426162-1 measures 1-1\/4 inches by 1-3\/16 inches across its pin dimensions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the Sea-Dog 426162-1 an OEM Sea-Dog part or an aftermarket copy?\u003c\/strong\u003e The 426162-1 is a genuine Sea-Dog part, identified by the manufacturer part number 426162-1.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sea-Dog","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48988813754587,"sku":"S-D-426162-1","price":8.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0839\/7586\/4539\/files\/5096.jpg?v=1784429536","url":"https:\/\/www.goodvibesmarina.com\/products\/sea-dog-426162-1-polarized-2-pin-molded-electrical-connector-3a-12-24vdc-machined-brass-pins","provider":"Good Vibes Marina","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
