UL Listed M16 Waterproof Auto Lock Cable Connector
Product Description
Product Detail
HuaYi-FaDa UL Listed M16 Waterproof Auto Lock Cable Connector combines a push-lock connection mechanism with IP68 protection for LED lighting and industrial automation equipment. The SA16 molded-cable series offers 2-pin, 3-pin, and 4-pin configurations, yellow or blue plastic connection nuts, and customized cable types and lengths for different installation requirements.
Features
Push-Lock Connection for Convenient Installation
The SA16 uses a push-lock connection design for quick mating between compatible connector halves. Its black housing is paired with a yellow or blue plastic connection nut, providing a choice of appearance for different equipment designs. The plastic connection component is designed to resist corrosion associated with salt exposure.
Molded Cable and Solder-Type Options
The standard SA16 version is molded with cable, integrating the cable and connector into one assembly. Cable type and length can be customized for different wiring layouts.
A cable-free solder connector is also available and can be paired with the molded-cable version in compatible configurations. These options support lighting designs that require different termination arrangements.
IP68 Protection for Lighting and Automation
The connector features an IP68 protection rating and a silicone sealing component. Gold-plated copper-alloy contact pins provide the electrical connection, while the housing and insulated components use high-performance engineering plastics.

FAQ
How does the SA16 push-lock connection work?
It mates by pushing compatible halves together without threaded coupling, allowing faster installation in tight spaces.
Can the molded-cable SA16 connect to the cable-free solder version?
Yes. In compatible configurations, one side can be the molded-cable version and the other side the cable-free solder connector.
How do I choose between 2-pin, 3-pin, and 4-pin SA16?
Match the pin count to the conductors required: 2-pin for simple power or signal pairs, 3-pin with ground or extra signal, 4-pin for more conductors.
What should I provide when customizing cable type and length?
Provide cable length, cable type, AWG or cross-section, number of cores, and pin configuration. A drawing helps confirm routing and connector orientation.
How should the SA16 be maintained to preserve IP68 sealing?
Use cable OD within 4.0–9.0 mm, ensure the silicone seal is properly seated, fully engage the push-lock, and inspect the seal for damage during maintenance.
