Aptiv GT Connector, Custom Wire Harness Manufacturer

Aptiv GT Connector

Aptiv (formerly Delphi) GT Connector System offers tangless terminals and a low connector engage force. It has been developed for applications with blade widths of 1.50mm and 2.80mm, achieving electrical performance that meets USCAR standards. The compact size is designed to fit the tight space requirements of modern vehicles. Key features include tangles terminals with stamped serrations, female terminals compatible with ISO or SAE blades, and pump-handle primary locks with integrated Connector Position Assurance (CPA). Aptiv GT Connection System also includes secondary lock capabilities such as Terminal Position Assurance (TPA) and Primary Lock Reinforcement (PLR), which can be used in conjunction with positive connector seal retention or a Slide Lock Cover (SLC) for unsealed systems. Designers have the flexibility to configure the number and orientation of cavities based on specific application requirements. Aptiv GT 150 and 280 connectors are available in both sealed and unsealed versions, offering cavity variations from 1 way to 32 ways. Connectors featuring silver interface platings meet SAE J2030 heavy-duty electrical connector standards. Typical applications for these connector systems include ergonomic connections, commercial vehicles, and marine.

GT Connector Applications

Ergonomic Connections

Aptiv GT Connectors are designed for ease of assembly, providing an ergonomic interface that minimizes strain during installation and maintenance. This makes them suitable for situations where quick, repeated, or difficult connections are required, improving overall efficiency in the field.

In-line Applications

Their streamlined design allows for effective use in in-line applications, where connectors must facilitate direct, continuous connections between components without intermediary boards or devices. This is critical in automotive wiring systems and industrial machinery.

Device Connections

Aptiv GT Connectors are frequently used to link individual electronic devices to broader systems, ensuring secure data or power transfer. Their compact form factor and durability make them an ideal choice for both consumer electronics and more demanding industrial electronics.

Header Applications

These connectors are often used as headers, particularly in vehicle electronics and other systems where stable, modular connections are needed between components like sensors, control units, and wiring harnesses.

Bulkhead Applications

Bulkhead installations, where connectors are mounted through a panel or wall, benefit from the GT Connectors’ sealing and stability. Their secure fit and environmental resistance makes them suitable for harsh environments, ensuring reliable performance even in extreme conditions.

Commercial Vehicles

Aptiv GT Connectors are widely used in commercial vehicles, including trucks, buses, and construction equipment. They support complex electronic systems, such as engine control units (ECUs), safety systems, and power distribution networks, while offering vibration resistance and durability.

Marine Applications

Their robustness extends to marine environments, where water resistance, corrosion protection, and long-term durability are key. Aptiv GT Connectors help maintain electrical and electronic system integrity in boats, yachts, and other marine vehicles.

This is not a definitive list of applications for Aptiv GT Connectors, but it represents some of the more common uses across different industries, highlighting their adaptability and reliability.
