FAQs
What is a D-Sub Connector?
A D-Sub connector is a popular type of I/O (input/output) connects that is commonly used in the computer and datacoms industry to provide power and point-to-point communications between two devices such as a computer and a monitor. The d-sub contains two or more parallel rows of pins or sockets surrounded by a D-shaped metal shell which provides mechanical support and ensures the correct orientation is used when mating. These d-subs are available as female D-sub sockets (or d-sub receptacles) with female contacts or male D-sub plugs with male pin contacts. The socket style female connector mates with the plug style male connector. Please note that a D-sub with a plastic shell cannot be mated with a D-sub with a metal shell.

What is a screwlock?
A screwlock is made up from a number of washers, screws and nuts which when fastened creates a mechanical locking element, this whole element is what prevents fasteners from becoming loose. A screwlock has a locking system which is caused by the components pressing into one another when fastened. Typically used in situations that have the need for an effective, tight lock and usually have soft coated surfaces and slotted holes.
