The wide assortment of military-aerospace relays includes space- and weight-saving solutions designed to QPL standards and a variety of military specifications
LUMBERTON, N.J. (PRWEB) February 28, 2022– Interstate Connecting Components (ICC), a division of Heilind Mil-Aero and a premier distributor of military and aerospace interconnects, is now stocking a broad range of MIL-SPEC electromechanical relays from TE Connectivity (TE). The relays fall under TE’s CII brand and are manufactured to QPL standards. They are also available at ICC’s parent company, Heilind Electronics.
Available in many mounting and terminal configurations, the relays are designed to withstand extreme shock, vibration, temperature and altitude. In addition, they feature a balanced force design for consistently high contact pressure, reduced bounce and less arching — ultimately extending contact life.
ICC’s portfolio includes CII TO-5 and .100 grid miniature, low-signal relays featuring a non-latching design and qualified to MIL-PRF-39016 specifications. The company also offers 1/5, 1/2 and full-size crystal can relays made to MIL-PRF-39016 or MIL-R-5757 specifications. Additionally, customers can choose from mid-range relays accommodating 5 to 50 A and qualified to MIL-PRF-6106 or MIL-PRF-83536 specifications.

The fiber optic connectors are qualified to MIL-PRF-28876, Revision F and feature black hard anodized PTFE plating
LUMBERTON, N.J. (PRWEB) September 20, 2021 – Interstate Connecting Components, a division of Heilind Mil-Aero and leading distributor of military-aerospace connectors and accessories, is now offering M28876 circular fiber optic connectors with black hard anodized (BHA) PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) plating. The connectors are precision-engineered by Amphenol Fiber Systems International, a leading manufacturer of fiber optic connectivity products.
The BHA PFTE-plated connectors are qualified to MIL-PRF-28876, Revision F, which supersedes the Revision E specification for olive drab cadmium plating. Because it is very hard and nearly chemically inert, the BHA plating is impervious to many corrosive compounds. This makes the connectors an ideal choice for applications like navy shipboards, oil and gas, mission-critical combat and communication systems, mobile tactical shelters and harsh industry.
While ICC is now providing value-added assembly on the new BHA-plated connectors, customers will still be able to order the older olive-drab plated connectors in commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) versions.
Amphenol Fiber Systems’ M28876 connectors operate with all qualified single mode and multimode M29504/14 and /15 termini. Backshells are available in straight, 45-degree and 90-degree configurations and utilize the manufacturer’s proprietary Quickloc captivation system.
