Highlights
  • Quick and reliable Insulation Displacement Contact (IDC) termination for both power and signal applications with no special tool required for assembly
  • Supports 250 volts, 10A (1 position), 7A max (2 or more positions) for 18 AWG
  • Compatible with wires 20-18 AWG
  • Transparent cover allows for visual confirmation that wires are properly inserted before IDC termination
  • Options for standard design or panel mount design with latches for convenient installation through a panel wall
  • Compact, unshielded design with 3mm pitch spacing
  • Polarization ensures proper connecting of mated plugs and sockets
  • Compatible with CC-Link Communication Interconnect Standard for seamless integration
  • The integrated dust cover flips over and provides a secure locking mechanism when mated with a socket

The 3M™ Power Clamp Wiremount Plug, 358 Series is a quick-terminating connector that can support up to 10A for power, field networking and I/O applications. With its quick and easy IDC field termination, there is no need for special tools or wire preparation — no stripping or tinning required. The semi-transparent color-coded covers allow for easy wire inspection. The integrated dust cover for harsh environments also provides a secure locking mechanism, while polarization ensures proper connecting of mated pairs. Additionally, a special plug design with latches offers a quick-insertion panel-mount option. The 3M™ Power Clamp Wiremount Plug is compatible with the CC-Link Communication Interconnect Standard.

Reduce wiring time by 80%

3M™ Power Clamp Wiremount Plug’s IDC termination technology helps reduce wiring time by 80% compared to crimp-style connectors* while also helping to reduce waste produced from wire stripping.

  • Better connections all across the system

    The 3M™ Power Clamp Wiremount Plug, 358 Series offers a reliable termination solution for incorporating power connections into wire-to-wire and wire-to-board applications. Combined with other 3M IDC connectivity solutions such as 3M™ Link Connectors, you can create spliced connector networks that allow for unit modularity, keep installation costs low and help reduce waste. Wire termination with 3M IDC technology is quick and reliable when compared with traditional crimp-style methods.

  • One-touch latching mechanism

    The 3M Power Clamp Wiremount Plug 358 Series features a side groove to match up with the socket latch. The integrated dust cover flips over into the connector opening when not mated to keep it clear of dust. When mated with a socket, the same dust cover tabs flip up into the socket between the latches and side wall for a secure connection in demanding field applications.
