  • Optimized Matrix: Shell Sizes 10SL to 36

  • Design Trait: Extended Body with Rear UNEF Threads for Backshell Accessories

  • Procurement Benefit: Factory-Direct Pricing & Flexible B2B MOQs

  • Global Standards: Fully RoHS and REACH Compliant

Key Product & Engineering Features

100% Direct Intermateability
Fully cross-compatible with all standard MIL-DTL-5015 plug layouts (including MS3106 and MS3108). No drawing or panel layout alterations required when replacing tier-1 brand parts.

Threaded Rear Accessory Interface
Extended rear barrel with external UNEF threads for direct integration with MS3057 cable clamps, conduit adapters, or environmental backshells – ideal for bulkhead pass-through wiring.

Stable Four-Hole Flange Mount
Standardized square flange with four mounting holes allows secure bolting to walls, enclosures, or structural barriers, absorbing heavy axial cable pulling forces.

High-Conductivity Solder Termination
Pre-installed copper alloy solder contacts with robust cups ensure permanent electrical and signal integrity under heavy mechanical duress, without specialized crimping equipment.

Rigid Polarized Insulators
High-dielectric synthetic rubber inserts keyed directly to the outer aluminum shell guarantee alignment stability and prevent cross-mating errors during blind field connections.

Streamlined Commercial Service Classes
Optimized for industrial Class R (lightweight environment resisting) and Class E/F (severe environment with wire sealing grommets). For niche defense variants (e.g., Class K Firewall), contact our support desk for custom batch quotes.

Corrosion-Resistant Structural Defense
Machined or die-cast from premium aluminum alloy with industrial-grade protective plating, designed to withstand continuous environmental exposure and 48–96 hour salt spray tests.

Application Environments

Our  MS3100 threaded wall-mount receptacles provide secure pass-through interfaces across severe layout environments:

Bulkhead Pass-Through Wiring
Structural bridge for heavy power cables crossing through internal factory walls or partition panels.

Heavy Industrial Enclosures
Control boxes where internal wire connections require auxiliary strain-relief clamps to handle heavy movement.

Marine & Outdoor Control Stations
Environments requiring external protective boots or conduits threaded tightly to the rear of the panel connector.

Power Distribution Trailers
Ruggedized external inputs for mobile generators, heavy welding grids, and temporary industrial power setups.

Aerospace & Defense Ground Support
Ground support equipment, test benches, and mobile platforms requiring MIL-DTL-5015-compatible interfaces.

Part Number Breakdown & Ordering Nomenclature

Standard Ordering Format Example: MS3100E20-29SZK

FAQ

Q1: What is the exact mechanical difference between an MS3100 and an MS3102 receptacle?

Both share an identical 4-hole square mounting flange, but their rear profiles are completely different:

  • MS3102: Short-profile box mount receptacle with no rear threads, designed for compact internal cabinet terminations.

  • MS3100: Extended rear barrel with external UNEF threads, specifically engineered to accept backshells, strain-relief cable clamps (MS3057), or conduit hardware – ideal for bulkhead pass-through wiring.

Q2: Can your MS3100 receptacles mate with our existing ITT Cannon or Amphenol 5015 plugs?

Yes. Our MS3100 units strictly adhere to the universal MIL-DTL-5015 interface standards and share identical thread pitches, envelope dimensions, and pin configurations with premium brands. They are 100% intermateable, interchangeable, and drop-in equivalents to Amphenol 97-3100 and ITT Cannon CA3100.

 

Q3: What is the typical lead time and MOQ for an MS3100 order?

Lead times and MOQs depend on shell size, service class, and contact arrangement. Because we focus heavily on standard commercial sizes (10SL through 36), we maintain highly responsive lead times for most configurations.
