Crimp Ferrule for AMPLIMITE HDP-20 D-Sub Connectors
This ferrule fits the 9, 15, and 50 position shell sizes — one part number covers three common D-sub cavity counts, which simplifies BOM management for harness builds that mix these sizes. It is the outer sleeve that slides over the cable jacket before the contact is crimped, providing strain relief and a clean termination point inside the connector backshell.
What It Fits and How It Works
The ferrule is used with AMPLIMITE Series D-sub connectors that accept crimp contacts. It is the outer shell that fits over the cable bundle after the individual contacts are crimped and inserted into the connector insert. Because it fits 9, 15, and 50 position shells, a single stock-keeping unit covers multiple harness configurations. The ferrule itself does not carry electrical current — it is a mechanical component that protects the crimp joint from strain and helps the backshell clamp evenly around the cable.
