Overview

The Mencom Corporation CDSHM-27 is a high-density male rectangular insert from the CDSH series, engineered for industrial power and signal distribution applications requiring compact yet robust connectivity solutions. This 27-pin insert, with a size specification of 77.27, is designed to handle up to 10 amperes per pole, making it suitable for high-current industrial environments. The Squich Spring connection system ensures gas-tight, vibration-resistant terminations, providing long-term reliability even in extreme conditions such as heavy machinery, automation systems, and control panels. Compared to standard screw-type inserts, the Squich Spring design reduces installation time by up to 70%, while outperforming traditional spring clamp types by 20%, resulting in significant labor cost savings without sacrificing performance or durability. The CDSH series, including the CDSHM-27, is widely deployed in power distribution panels, motor control centers, robotics, and automated manufacturing systems where space efficiency, high pin density, and secure electrical connections are critical for operational integrity.
