400Hz Aircraft Ground Power Connectors

We manufacture 400Hz aircraft ground power connectors, including replaceable nose and stepped nose styles, and supply replacement connector parts so a worn nose or damaged pin doesn't mean scrapping the whole cable.

Connector types

We manufacture and supply the connector styles used across 400Hz aircraft ground power and GSE cable assemblies.

400Hz connector replacement parts

Replacement parts

Pins, contacts, noses, and other connector replacement parts sold on their own for re-terminating an existing cable.

New connector or a repair?

If your connector is damaged but the rest of the cable is sound, repairing or re-terminating with a new connector is usually faster and less expensive than replacing the full assembly. If you need connectors or parts for your own maintenance team to install, we sell those directly.

Connector FAQ

What is a replaceable nose 400Hz connector?

The front contact section can be swapped out independently of the rest of the connector body. If the nose is damaged or worn, it can be replaced without re-terminating the entire cable, saving time and cost.

What is a stepped nose 400Hz connector?

A tiered contact profile designed to mate correctly and maintain reliable contact with specific 400Hz ground power receptacles. We can advise on the correct configuration for your cable assembly.

Can I buy replacement parts without a full new cable?

Yes. We supply replacement 400Hz connectors and connector parts on their own, so you can re-terminate an existing cable rather than buying a complete new assembly.

Do you install the connector, or just sell the part?

Both. We sell connectors and parts for your team to install, or we can terminate and test the connector on your cable in our shop near LAX.
