Additional MIL-DTL-5015 Connectors
Offered by Amphenol
MS/Standard 3100 Series, MIL-5015 Type Connectors
MIL-DTL-5015 and MIL-5015 Type Standard Circular
Conn­ ectors with solder or crimp
(non-rear release) contacts
Amphenol has long been the accepted leader in providing MS
Stan­dard MIL-5015 type connectors. These connectors represent
well-proven electrical capability at an economical cost for most
equipment where durability is important.
The MS/Standard family of connectors (3100 Series) is a very
broad range of product with the following features:
•Medium to heavy weight cylindrical with resilient inserts
• Environmental resistant
• Threaded couplings, single key/keyway shell polarization
• Operating voltage to 3000 VAC (RMS) at sea level
• 5 shell styles, 19 shell sizes, 280 contact arrangements
• Solder or crimp contacts (non-rear-release type),
sizes 16–0 accepting 22–0 AWG
• Coaxial or thermocouple contact options
•Alternate insert positioning
• Hermetic configurations available
• Zinc alloy plating (cadmium-free) available
The 3100 Series has five classes of connectors to meet different requirements.Within these connector styles, MIL-C-5015
has been replaced as follows: Environmental classes F and R are updated to and produced in strict accordance to MIL-
DTL-5015. Classes A, C and E are still produced, but are no longer listed on the qualified products listing (QPL). Class
designations and brief descriptions are as follows:
A – Solid Shell – for general, non-environmental applications.
C – Pressurized – for use on pressurized bulkheads or pressure barriers; limits air leakage regardless of type and
class of plug mated with them.
E/F – Environmental Resisting with Strain Relief – designed for applications where the connector will be exposed to
mois­ture, vibration, and rapid changes in pressure and temperature.
R – Lightweight Environmental Resisting – shorter in length, lighter in weight than the E & F classes, the MS-R offers a
high degree of reliability under adverse conditions: recommended for new design applications.

MIL-5015 Modifications
In order to supplement standard MS shell styles and provide a greater variety of styles for the electrical connector user,
there are several MS and MS Modified cylindrical connectors offered by Amphenol. These types include flange mount
plugs, thru bulkhead receptacles, jam nut receptacles, connectors for potting and connectors designed specifically to
terminate jacketed cable. Ask for Amphenol catalog 12-021 for detailed information or visit

97 Series, MIL-5015 Type Connectors
The low cost, general duty connector used extensively in the machine
tool industry, welding industry and numerous other industrial applications,
is the Amphenol® 97 Series. Offered in non-environmental styles, these
con­nectors have hard dielectric inserts and threaded coupling. They are
Underwriters Laboratories Recognized and Canadian
Standards Associat­ion Certified.
Recent addition to this family is the 97E environmental styles, still an
eco­nomical choice. The 97E can be used in a variety of industrial
applications where environmental sealing is required, such as automotive
and robotics.
