Looking for EDAC locking pins

Hi,

I have some EDAC 56 pin connectors that are missing the locking pin that goes through the metal cover and contact housing to allow you to secure the complete cable connector to the chassi connector.

Does anyone have any spares ? I need two of them

Also, I could use guide pins for one connector.

I´ll pay of course.

You're referring to the actuator screw. I'm pretty sure it is not available as a replacement part.

You should just buy a couple of 56 pin EDACs with the acuator screw and harvest the parts for your connector.

Yeah, if no-one has the actuator screw , I´ll have to do that.

Seems a shame to waste the connectors just because they are missing them.

Sounds like you have a panel plug and a panel receptacle. They are specified as plug or receptacle with locking nut, and plug or receptacle with actuating screw. Up to you to choose the sexing for your application.

I hope I haven't stated the obvious

Thanks apprenticemart2,

yeah, I have the housings with pins, the shell. It is only the actuator screw in the middle that is missing.

WTMNMF, I have the cable versions and they are missing the middle screw.
