QPL
The distinguishing feature of M83723/95 is the self-locking clutch plate. It holds the coupling nut at whatever rotational position it is left in, so a plug that has been fully torqued cannot back off under vibration and vibration-induced fretting on the contacts is eliminated. Arrangement 1808 is eight size-12 contacts in shell 18 — the size-12 contact carries significantly more current than #16 or #20, so this arrangement is used for power distribution rather than signal.

Per the Amphenol MIL-DTL-83723 Series III ordering scheme, the slash sheets run from /69 through /98, with /91 and /92 being straight plugs with socket and pin contacts respectively, and /95 and /96 the self-locking clutch-plate plugs with socket and pin contacts. Series III is also intermateable with equivalent MIL-DTL-26500 designs and offers bayonet, threaded and quick-disconnect coupling within the same family. Airoadcon supplies all three coupling styles across the shell range 8 to 24/28.
