RockStar® Heavy-duty connectors

RockStar® connectors ensure safe and reliable transmission of power, signals, and data in industrial environments, both inside the control cabinet and outside in the field.

Industrial connectors from Weidmuller guarantee exceptional performance in any environment

In demanding surroundings outside the control cabinet, robust industrial connectors are required that are resistant to extreme industrial or climatic conditions as well as electromagnetic interference: In other words, genuine RockStar® heavy-duty connectors.

Currently, heavy-duty connectors are used wherever there is a need for a secure, simple and time-saving assembly of machinery and facilities. The die-cast aluminum connector housings provide excellent protection against dirt, moisture and mechanical stress. In addition, special modular connectors enable the combination of signals, power supply, and data connections in a single connector.

Weidmuller industrial connectors guarantee exceptional performance and reliability for the entire range of power, signal, and data transmission. Discover our RockStar® family of robust plug-in connectors, including modular plugs, fixed-pole inserts in various sizes, and heavy-duty connectors for the demanding requirements of traffic engineering.
