Amass XT60H Female Connector with Housing

Amass XT60H Female Connector with Housing is an upgraded high-current DC power connector designed to deliver reliable, high-efficiency connections for LiPo batteries, electronic speed controllers (ESCs), and power distribution systems. Manufactured by Amass, this authentic connector incorporates a snap-on protective rear cap that completely encapsulates solder joints without requiring traditional heat-shrink tubing. Consequently, it speeds up wire assembly while enhancing mechanical strain relief and short-circuit prevention. The female connector features gold-plated brass bullet pins embedded within a flame-retardant nylon body, guaranteeing minimal contact resistance under high continuous loads. Furthermore, its ergonomic shape ensures smooth plugging and unplugging even in tight spaces. Therefore, you can confidently integrate the Amass XT60H into demanding RC models, drones, and high-power DIY electronics projects.

Key Features:

• Protective Insulating Housing: Includes a snap-on rear sheath that covers soldered joints, eliminating the need for heat-shrink tubing and protecting against short circuits.
• Gold-Plated Contacts: Utilizes high-grade gold-plated brass bullet connectors to minimize electrical resistance and optimize power transmission efficiency.
• Flame-Retardant Material: Molded from robust UL94 V-0 rated PA66 nylon, providing exceptional heat resistance during heavy current flow and high-temperature soldering.
• High Current Handling: Designed to carry up to 30A continuous and 60A instantaneous peak currents safely without overheating.
• Anti-Reverse Polarity Design: Features an asymmetrical housing shape, which prevents accidental reverse connections and protects downstream electronics.

Pinout and Wiring:

• Positive (+) Terminal: Clearly marked with a plus sign on the flat side of the nylon housing; solder the positive (red) power lead to this terminal.
• Negative (−) Terminal: Clearly marked with a minus sign on the chamfered side of the housing; solder the negative (black) power lead to this terminal.
• Assembly Sequence: Thread the wires through the rear protective cap before soldering them to the solder cups; subsequently, snap the cap onto the main housing body until it locks securely.
