Part of the LF series, this connector mates with the corresponding female socket connector (LF10WBRB-12S) via a bayonet lock that provides quick coupling with vibration resistance. The zinc alloy shell carries a nickel finish and mounts through a bulkhead using the rear-side nut, securing the connector from inside the panel. Rated IP67 and IP68 when mated, the connector is dust-tight and submersible, making it suitable for industrial and telecommunications applications where moisture ingress is a concern. ## Solder Cup Termination for Field Wiring Each of the 12 copper alloy contacts terminates via solder cup — a field-service-friendly method that requires only a soldering iron, not a crimp tool. The per-contact current rating of 2A at a 30VAC or 42VDC voltage limit positions this connector for signal-level circuits rather than power distribution. ## Mating Half and Panel Installation The mating connector for the LF10WBR-12P is the LF10WBRB-12S — a 12-position receptacle with female sockets, gold-plated contacts, and the same IP67 rating. The keyed orientation prevents mismating in multi-connector panels. Both connectors use the same shell size 10 and bayonet lock interface. The panel cutout diameter is standard for shell size 10 in the LF series. ## Position Variant Comparison Within the same LF10WBR shell size, the 12-position LF10WBR-12P carries 2A per contact at 30VAC/42VDC, while the 4-position LF10WBR-4P in the same shell size delivers 10A per contact at 125VAC/DC. The higher circuit density of the 12-position variant limits per-contact current due to thermal constraints within the same shell envelope — a tradeoff worth noting when selecting between circuit count and power capacity. The PPS insert is rated UL94 V-0 for flammability.","metaTitle":"Hirose LF10WBR-12P Receptacle, Male Pins, 12-Position, IP68","metaDescription":"Hirose LF10WBR-12P circular receptacle, 12 male pins, gold-plated contacts, 2A, IP67/IP68 sealed, solder cup termination, bayonet lock.
