VES Anderson Plug Connector Housing - 50AMP (Grey) - Pack of 10

Product Overview

Ensure your 12V power connections can withstand the harsh Australian elements with the VES 50 Amp Anderson-Style Connector Housing. This bulk pack of 10 grey housings is the ideal workshop staple for auto-electricians, fleet mechanics, and DIY enthusiasts who already stock their own crimp terminals.

Whether you are repairing a cracked plug on a camper trailer, upgrading a dual battery system in your ute, or building custom length cables, these high-impact polycarbonate shells provide the robust protection your electrical circuits need.

Important: Housing Only

Please Note: This pack contains the plastic connector bodies only.

• Included: 10 x Grey Polycarbonate Housings.

• Not Included: Silver-plated copper terminals/lugs are sold separately. This kit is designed for users who already own terminals or crimping supplies.

Key Features & Benefits

• Built Tough for Aussie Conditions: Moulded from UL-rated high-impact Polycarbonate, these housings are designed to resist vibration, high heat, and the rough-and-tumble of off-road driving.

• Universal "Genderless" Design: No male or female connectors to worry about. These housings mate perfectly with any standard Grey 50 Amp Anderson-style plug. Simply flip one 180 degrees to connect.

• Colour-Coded Safety: The Grey housing is mechanically keyed to only connect with other Grey plugs. This prevents accidental cross-connection with Red (Solar/Unregulated) or Blue (48V) circuits, protecting your sensitive equipment.

• Self-Cleaning Reliability: When paired with standard terminals (sold separately), the internal stainless steel spring mechanism maintains high-pressure contact.1 This "wiping action" cleans the contact surface every time you plug it in, ensuring a low-resistance connection.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do these Anderson plug housings come with the metal terminals?

A: No. This is a "Housing Only" pack. It contains 10 plastic shells. You will need to purchase 50 Amp copper terminals separately or use existing stock.

Q: Will these connect to a Red Anderson plug?

A: No. Grey Anderson plugs are keyed differently to Red plugs to prevent connecting different voltage circuits (e.g., connecting a 12V battery to a higher voltage solar array). Grey only connects to Grey.

Q: Are these genuine Anderson or Anderson-style?

A: These are VES brand Anderson-style connectors. They are fully compatible with genuine Anderson Power Products (APP) 50A plugs and other generic brands.

Q: Can I use these for 24V systems?

A: Yes, the housing is rated for up to 600V.2 They are commonly used for both 12V and 24V DC applications in trucks and heavy machinery.
