Huizhou Antenk Electronics Co., Ltd. (IATF16949, ISO9001, ISO14001 certified) presents the OBD Male Connector Shell, a precision-engineered housing for on-board diagnostic (OBD) interfaces. Designed to meet SAE J1962 specifications, this shell accommodates 16-pin male terminals for vehicle diagnostic systems. The housing is molded from high-temperature UL94 V-0 rated PBT or PA66, offering excellent impact resistance and thermal stability up to 125°C. Key features include a polarized trapezoidal shape, integrated latch locking mechanism for secure mating with the vehicle’s OBD female receptacle, and color-coded options (typically black or custom). The shell supports terminal types: stamped pin or machined pin, with selective gold or tin plating. Operating temperature range: -40°C to +125°C. RoHS, REACH compliant.
Applications include automotive diagnostic tools, scan tools, fleet management systems, vehicle telematics, and aftermarket testing equipment. Usage: insert pre-crimped terminals into the shell cavities according to the standard OBD pinout (16 pins), ensuring proper locking tang engagement. Assemble the rear cover (if applicable) for wire strain relief. Mating with the vehicle’s OBD-II female connector provides a secure link for data reading and fault code retrieval. Precautions: verify terminal insertion direction; avoid excessive force; do not exceed specified current (typically 5A per pin). Advantages over competitors: Antenk’s shell features reinforced side walls and a robust latch tested to 10,000 mating cycles – exceeding typical OBD durability requirements. Tight dimensional tolerances (±0.05mm) ensure perfect fit with OEM vehicle ports. Low MOQs (1,000 units) with no tooling fees for standard colors.
Production process: in-house mold design (380+ plastic molds) → injection molding on 10 Japan/Taiwan machines (35-120 tons) using PBT/PA66 → stamping of terminals (9 high-speed presses) → selective plating (gold/tin) → automated terminal insertion (180+ assembly machines) → 100% electrical continuity & latch force testing → 48h salt spray test → final QC with lot traceability. Free samples, 2D/3D CAD drawings, and 24/7 technical support available. Contact Antenk for competitive OBD connector solutions.
