The TE Connectivity 1-1106101-1 is a guide bushing in the HTS series, designed as a mechanical alignment accessory for HTS inserts. It carries an M3 thread and a 16 mm body length, sized to guide the insert into the mating housing during assembly. This is not a signal-carrying connector — it is a positioning and alignment component that ensures the insert seats squarely, preventing thread cross-over or housing damage during field installation or production line build.
Thread and Fit — M3, 16 mm
The M3 thread is the standard metric machine screw size, meaning the bushing accepts an M3 bolt or stud for mounting. The 16 mm overall length gives enough stand-off to reach through the panel or insert flange thickness common in HTS connector assemblies. If you are replacing a worn or missing bushing on an existing HTS insert, this is the direct fit — same thread, same length.
Compatibility — HTS Inserts Only
This bushing is specified for use with HTS inserts — the TE Connectivity heavy-duty industrial connector line. It is not a universal guide bushing; the thread pitch and shoulder profile match the HTS insert's alignment hole. If your application uses a different insert family (HDC, HA, HE), this bushing will not seat correctly.
