Jam Nut Receptacle, 12 × #20 Socket — MIL-DTL-83723 Series III

Specifications

Overview

The M83723/73W1412N is a MIL-DTL-83723 Series III jam nut receptacle in shell size 14, arrangement 1412, with 12 × #20 socket crimp contacts. In the 83723 series the first two digits after the slash encode shell type and the letter encodes class: /71 wall-mount socket, /72 wall-mount pin, /73 jam-nut socket, /74 jam-nut pin, /75 straight plug socket, /76 straight plug pin, /77 RFI-grounding plug socket, /78 RFI-grounding plug pin, and the /95 /96 pair for self-locking threaded plugs.

Class W is cadmium olive drab plating over aluminium. Series III uses rear-release crimp contacts with a triple-start threaded coupling - the combination that makes it the field-serviceable alternative to solder-contact families, since contacts can be extracted and replaced without cutting the harness.
