M8 3-Pin A&B-Code Male Straight Assembled Connector is a metal-bodied M8 connector designed for solder termination and EMI-shielded industrial connections. The straight configuration provides a direct cable entry, while the assembled construction allows the connector to be integrated into custom cable assemblies.
Available for A-Code and B-Code applications, the connector uses a 3-pin male interface and an M8 × 1.0 screw locking system. The A-Code version is rated for 3 A at 60 V, while the B-Code version is rated for 3 A at 30 V.
With its metal housing and shielded construction, this M8 3-Pin Male Connector is suitable for industrial wiring where a solderable, shielded connection is required.

Dimensions
Connector uses a straight metal housing with an M8 × 1.0 screw locking interface and a cable entry suitable for Ø3–5 mm cable.
Please refer to the product drawing for detailed housing and mounting dimensions.All dimensions are in mm.
Male Contact Configuration
3-pin male interface provides the plug-side connection for compatible M8 female sockets. The straight connector body keeps the cable entry aligned with the mating axis, making it suitable for conventional cable routing and assembled wiring harnesses.
A-Code and B-Code versions use their corresponding M8 coding configurations for compatible mating connections.
Metal Housing and Shielding
The metal housing forms an EMI-shielded connector structure around the contact area. This makes the connector suitable for applications where shielding is required as part of the cable connection.
Unlike an overmolded cable connector, the assembled design allows the cable to be terminated by soldering during cable assembly.
