37-Position D-Sub Housing for Harness Assembly
The TE Connectivity AMPLIMITE HDP-20 205209-7 is a 37-position D-sub receptacle housing designed to accept female crimp contacts. It is the female side of a standard D-sub interconnect, mating with a male D-sub plug that carries the pin contacts. The shell size is 4, also designated DC or C, which is the standard shell for 37-position D-subs. The housing is free-hanging (in-line) with an unthreaded flange, meaning it is intended for cable-to-cable or cable-to-panel applications where the mating connector or panel provides the threaded insert or hardware. This housing is the 37-position member of the AMPLIMITE HDP-20 series, a widely used industrial D-sub connector family known for its rugged steel shell and reliable crimp termination. The black nylon housing is glass-filled for dimensional stability, and the steel shell carries a yellow trivalent chromate zinc plating at 200 µin (5.08 µm) thickness for corrosion resistance.
Contacts are not included. Order the matching female crimp contacts separately.
Shell Finish and Flange Feature
The steel shell is plated with yellow trivalent chromium chromate zinc, a RoHS-compliant finish that provides good corrosion resistance for industrial environments. The flange is unthreaded, meaning there are no threaded inserts in the housing itself. For panel-mount applications, you will need either a mating connector with threaded inserts, or separate screw-lock hardware (such as TE part 1-338169-0 or similar) to secure the pair together.
