The TXR18AB00-1810AI is a straight Tinel-Lock backshell adapter designed for robust shield termination and strain relief on MIL-C-5015 circular connectors. It is manufactured from aluminum alloy with an olive drab cadmium over electroless nickel finish, providing corrosion resistance for exposed environments. This adapter is configured for a size 18 connector shell and features a size 10 cable entry with an 'AI' Tinel-Lock ring designator, suitable for single-layer 36 or 34 AWG cable braids. The Tinel-Lock system, utilizing a shape-memory alloy ring, ensures a reliable, 360° termination that is ideal for high-reliability aerospace and defense applications requiring resistance to shock, vibration, and temperature cycling.
