Overview

The Mencom MS18M-4FP-4M is a MIL-SPEC equivalent Size 18, 4-pole female straight cordset designed for industrial power and signal connectivity in demanding environments. This 4-meter cordset features a foil-shielded cable (shielded to coupling nut) with 4x16 AWG conductors rated for 600V and 10A, ensuring reliable signal integrity in high-noise applications. The yellow PVC jacket provides durability with a 10.8mm outer diameter, operating across a temperature range of -40°C to 80°C. Unlike traditional MIL-SPEC connectors requiring specialized tools, this pre-wired cordset offers a 'Plug and Play' installation with over-molded construction for simplified deployment. The Size 18 shell accommodates standard pin configurations (A: Black, B: White, C: Red, D: Green/Yellow) for versatile power and signal transmission. Compatible with North American industrial standards, this cordset is a cost-effective alternative to legacy MIL-SPEC solutions while maintaining robust performance in 5015 industrial applications.
  • 4-pole female straight cordset with Size 18 MIL-SPEC shell
  • Foil-shielded cable (4x16 AWG) for noise immunity in industrial environments
  • Rated 600V, 10A with yellow PVC jacket (10.8mm OD)
  • Operating temperature: -40°C to 80°C; IP67 waterproof rating
  • Threaded coupling nut (1.1250-18UNEF) for secure, vibration-resistant connections
