MCDC10M Micro Circular Dummy Connector — 10 Contacts

The MCDC10M is a 10-contact Micro Circular dummy connector in the male (pins) configuration. It is not an electrical part: it seals and protects an unmated 10-contact Micro Circular connector against seawater ingress, biofouling, grit and mechanical damage during storage, transit and service intervals.

10 Contacts Dummy Connector Male Version 7,000 m Depth Chloroprene Body IP68

Key Design Features

  • Keyed to the shell: the dummy carries the same keyway and thread as the working connector, so it cannot be fitted to the wrong contact count.
  • Same seal as the connector: the nitrile O-ring compresses against the same sealing face, keeping the unmated contacts dry.
  • Chloroprene body: the same rubber as the connector body, tolerant of deck handling, UV and the full operating temperature range.
  • Protects the wet-mate life: keeping the per-contact seals compressed and the bores clean is what preserves the 500-cycle rating of the working connector.
  • Correct pairing: the F version covers male connectors, the M version covers female connectors.

Notes for Selection

Each dummy is keyed to its contact count; it cannot be forced onto the wrong shell, which prevents contact damage on deck.

Order with the connector Dummies are normally supplied with the matching connector so that every unused port is covered from day one. State the contact count and the gender of the connector you are protecting when ordering.
