Housing for Wet Environments: The GT5W-1S-HU
The Hirose GT5W-1S-HU is a single-position female housing from the GT5 series, designed for use with F terminals. Its key feature is the waterproof construction, making it suitable for harnesses that must withstand moisture, splash, or direct water exposure. The gray Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) body provides good chemical resistance and dimensional stability over the operating temperature range.
Mating and Terminal Compatibility
The waterproof seal is achieved when the housing is mated with its corresponding male counterpart, typically a header or a plug with a matching seal. For a complete interconnect, pair this GT5W-1S-HU with the correct male connector and F-series crimp terminals.
