Amphenol Aerospace Warrior Grip and Warrior-Lok Series Connectors
Amphenol Aerospace Warrior Grip Series Connectors are the only Nett Warrior-style connectors that enable fast charging of 10A capability for the warfighter. The Warrior Grip system demonstrates a 26% reduction in heat rise on average compared to competitors and complies with all MIL-STD-1472 temperature exposure standards. Warrior Grip connectors feature a gold-plated EMI spring for enhanced shielding and durability and an integrated banding platform for straightforward cable termination.
The Warrior-Lok Push-Pull Connectors feature a push-pull mechanism that ensures secure connections and easy disconnection by pulling on the operating sleeve. These connectors are designed to be fully compatible with Nett Warrior plugs and support low mating and unmating forces. Typical applications include aerospace, military, and soldier-worn equipment.

If there is one cable connector that King Leonidas would be proud of, it would be the Warrior Grip Series from Amphenol Aerospace, as these connectors have the strength and resilience to be worthy of Sparta. Warrior Grip connectors have an unmating force of 13lbs, meaning that they will only disconnect when they need to, and their textured shell design provides excellent grip for quickly mating and unmating when intended. They exceed the rigorous Nett Warrior program requirements, and are the first Nett Warrior style connector to support quick charging with a maximum current of 10A per contact. They also meet MIL-STD-1472, ensuring they will work reliably in all environments. They can also operate at up to 160.5°C and have a 26% lower temperature rise than standard Nett Warrior connectors.
