D-Sub 15-Pin / HD-26 Connector Hood & Backshell Kit
Complete plastic assembly kit with long fixing screws for DB15 and HD-26 D-Subminiature connectors
Product Overview
This kit contains everything needed to assemble or re-shell a professional-grade D-Sub 15-pin (DB15) or High-Density 26-pin (HD-26) connector. The package includes two grey plastic hoods of complementary design along with a full set of long fixing screws and hardware, providing a lightweight and cost-effective enclosure solution for a wide range of applications.
What's in the Kit
- 1× Rigid grey plastic hood — two-piece clamshell design, solid opaque grey finish; provides sturdy mechanical protection for the connector body and soldered wiring.
- 1× Lightweight grey plastic backshell hood — two-piece construction, compatible with DB15 and HD-26 D-Sub connectors; economical and easy to assemble.
- Hardware pack — includes long panel-mount jack screws, hex nuts, and long jack posts (thumbscrews) for securing the hood halves and firmly locking the assembled connector to the mating device or panel.
Key Features
- Compatible with standard DB15 (D-Sub 15-pin) and HD-26 (High-Density 26-pin) male and female connectors, both solder cup and crimp type.
- Both hoods made from durable grey ABS plastic — lightweight and suitable for standard non-shielded cable assemblies.
- Plastic hoods rated UL 94V-0 for fire resistance.
- Long fixing screws allow secure panel mounting and reliable strain relief even in demanding industrial environments.
- All hardware is zinc-plated steel for corrosion resistance.
- No special tools required for final assembly or field installation.
