TE Connectivity 368050-1 Econoseal J 16-Way Male Cap

Terminals and seals are not included

The Component: Genuine TE Connectivity 368050-1 (Part Alias: E-S MK-2(+) 16P CAP HSG) 16-way male automotive unsealed connector cap housing shroud. Econoseal J Series Mark II(+) 16-position 4-row male tab inline casing (Black / PBT / Unsealed / Cable Mount / Mating Tab Width 1.8mm).

Applications & Fitment: Designed as a primary factory original equipment (OE) high-density inline connection solution for low-voltage signal paths, auxiliary body wiring drops, and cabin-run control networks. Extensively specified across prominent automotive and motorcycle manufacturing grids as a dependable wire-to-wire coupling link. Engineered specifically to organize complex multi-line logic configurations within a compact footprint while offering positive alignment safeguards to prevent mis-mating and contact damage in tight routing environments. Highly vulnerable to integrated alignment tracking channel distortion if forced blindly against misaligned female socket plug partners during field workshop troubleshooting, or terminal retention wall fracturing if pins are manipulated using non-standard extraction tools.
