Overview

The Deutsch DT 8-way connector kit gives you a fully sealed, vibration-proof wiring join for the harsh conditions your rig sees on the road. Built around the DT04-8P receptacle and DT06-8S plug, it uses a thermoplastic housing with silicone rubber seals and wedgelocks that lock each contact in place. Each size 16 contact carries up to 13 amps continuous, and the sealed design is rated IP68 when installed to specification.

This kit suits anyone wiring or repairing a caravan, camper trailer, motorhome or 4WD. Typical jobs include extending or joining harnesses for driving lights, light bars, winch controls, auxiliary battery and dual-battery systems, trailer lighting and fridge circuits. It copes with corrugations, creek crossings, dust and Australian summer heat, so it is a solid choice for off-road builds and RV upgrades where a standard spade or bullet connector would fail.
