Overview

The Mencom Corporation MAC-5MR-4-18 is a front-mount, 5-pole male straight receptacle designed for reliable industrial connections. Part of Mencom’s Micro-AC series, this connector features a durable nickel-plated brass shell with a .25-NPT thread for secure front mounting. The integrated 1-foot 18 AWG cable (UL Style 1007/1569, 300V) provides flexible termination options, while the copper alloy contacts with gold plating ensure low-resistance, corrosion-resistant connections rated for 4 amps. The dual keyway system prevents wiring errors and ensures proper mating, distinguishing it from MDC connectors. The insulator is polyamide, and the O-ring is NBR for environmental sealing up to IP69. Standard coupling nuts are anodized aluminum for 1/2” NPT threads and nickel-plated brass for 1/4” NPT threads. For stainless steel coupling nuts, add the “-SS” suffix. The MAC series supports 2 to 6 conductors with 18 or 22 AWG wire options, making it versatile for industrial automation, control panels, and machinery applications. Operating temperature range is -40°C to 105°C (-40°F to +221°F).
