Micro Wet-Tech Connector, Bulkhead, 6-way, Male, Brass / Stainless steel MCBH6M

MCBH6M Micro Circular Bulkhead Connector — Overview

The MCBH6M is a 6-contact Micro Circular bulkhead subsea connector, male (pins) face, wet-mateable and rated to 10 A per contact (50 A per connector) at 7,000 m working depth. It mounts through a standard 7/16-20 UNF-2A hull penetration and is supplied with colour-coded PTFE leads for direct splicing inside the housing.

6 Contacts 600 V AC/DC 10 A per Contact 7,000 m Depth 500+ Wet Matings IP68

Key Design Features

• Wet-mateable: mate and demate in seawater; each contact carries its own moulded O-ring seal, so a single seal failure does not flood the connector.
• SubConn Compatible: identical face geometry, contact pitch and 7/16-20 UNF-2A thread, so it retrofits existing SubConn panels and harnesses without re-machining.
• Gold-plated contacts: brass UNS-C36000 contacts hold contact resistance below 0.01 Ω across the full 500-cycle life.
• 10 A per contact: rated current with a 50 A connector limit for the 6-contact shell.
• Pressure qualified: 1,400 bar mated design depth, 800 bar open face, so the face survives handling and storage unmated.
• Brass / 316L stainless steel body: matched to the housing material to avoid galvanic couples; brass, 316L stainless, titanium, anodised aluminium and PEEK are available across the range.

Typical Applications

Camera and lighting on one penetration, dual sensor buses, valve and actuator control, combined power and data for instrument pods.

Notes for Selection

The male face presents pins outside the housing; the sealed socket bores stay on the mating in-line connector, which simplifies deck handling.
