The Amphenol MS3126F18-32S (PT06SE18-32S) is a MIL-DTL-26482 Series I circular connector designed as a straight plug with bayonet coupling and crimp termination. This 32-position, size 18 connector delivers high-reliability performance in aerospace, defense, industrial, and automotive applications where environmental sealing and rapid mating are critical. The socket-contact design accommodates 24 to 16 AWG wire with individual wire sealing capability and IP67 environmental protection.
