Sealcon Twilock-S Circular Connectors Makes “Child’s Play” Out of Difficult Access Areas

The Sealcon Twilock-S connection system is an extremely simple and highly reliable quick fastening system. Sealcon’s Twilock-S metric circular plug-in connectors mate to Speedtec by Intercontec/TE Connectivity making adaptivity between these two connector systems technically possible. All it takes is just one click, a slight twist and the plug-in system goes from “Open” to “Close”; making it child’s play to plug in a connector even where access is quite difficult.
