SB

50 Connectors
- up to 120 amps
Based off the design pioneered by Anderson in 1953, the
two pole SB
®
connectors set the standard for DC power
distribution and battery connections. SB
®
50 connectors
feature a one piece plastic housing using stainless steel
springs to hold low resistance contacts in place. Wires
sizes from #16 (1.5 mm²) to #6 (13.3 mm²) are held in
the smallest of the SB
®
series housings.
• Low Resistance Silver or Tin Plated Copper Contacts
Allows UL rated currents up to 120 amps
• UL Rated for Hot Plugging up to 50 Amps
Great for battery or other applications where the ability to
interrupt circuits is required
Allows one connection system to meet multiple needs
• Wire, PCB, and Busbar Contacts

50 Standard Housings
The smallest SB
®
housings work with wire contacts up to
6 AWG [10 mm²] as well as PCB, and busbar contacts.
Genderless design mates with itself. Mechanical keys are
color coded.

¹ Based on: 105°C rated or better cable of the largest size, Properly
calibrated APP recommended tooling, and a 25°C ambient temperature.
UL rating not to exceed the maximum operating temperature. CSA rating
below a 30°C temperature rise.
² Limited by the thermal properties of the connector plastic housing.
³ Use APP recommended tooling only. Alternate tools may adversely
