| MRAC Connectors? |
| (1/1) |
| Pete W.:
I guess this thread is primarily aimed at UK members. While sorting out my 'stash', I have surfaced a non-trivial quantity of contact inserts for MRAC cnnectors (should there be a hyphen in there somewhere?). There are both male and female inserts and I believe that they are all size 16. I'm currently searching the net for catalogue data. It is at least three decades since I was actively involved in the electronics industry and even more than that since I was involved with equipment design and component selection. So, here are my questions: Are MRAC connectors still a currently used range? Or are the contact inserts I have merely gold-bearing scrap? |

Post a picture Pete and we may recognise them. I found this : https://disti-assets.s3.amazonaws.com/cdmelectronics/files/datasheets/5057.pdf |

Thank you for that link, Andrew, I tried a web search but didn't find anything that good. I posed my original question to a contact who is mid-career as an avionics engineer - his response was to send me a link to the precious metal recyclers he uses when needed!!!! The big irony was that their address is just down the road from where I was last employed, miles away from where I live now. Shipping would probably render such a deal profitless!! Then there are the 400-ish dead 3½" hard drives I still have. They're what's left of an original eBy job-lot of 1000+ !! I was dismantling them a few at a time and weighing in their chunky bits locally. However, that's a labour-intensive pursuit and, having reached the ripe old age of 85, I realised there are better ways of spending my time. :zap: :coffee: :zap: :coffee: :zap: :coffee: |
