Description
The XT60 connector is a commonly used electrical connector in the RC (radio-controlled) hobby and other applications. It is primarily used for connecting batteries to electronic devices, such as drones, RC cars, and airplanes. Here are the specifications for the XT60 male and female connectors:
1. XT60 Male Connector:
- Material: The XT60 male connector is typically made of high-quality heat-resistant nylon and features gold-plated connectors for better conductivity.
- Dimensions: The overall dimensions of the XT60 male connector are approximately 16.5mm x 31mm x 8.5mm (height x length x width).
- Weight: The weight of the XT60 male connector is typically around 7 grams.
- Connector Type: The XT60 male connector has bullet-style connectors, which consist of a male bullet connector and a plastic housing with two open slots to secure the connection.
2. XT60 Female Connector:
- Material: Similar to the male connector, the XT60 female connector is also made of high-quality heat-resistant nylon and features gold-plated connectors.
- Dimensions: The overall dimensions of the XT60 female connector are approximately 16.5mm x 31mm x 8.5mm (height x length x width). The dimensions are identical to the male connector, allowing for a secure connection.
- Weight: The weight of the XT60 female connector is typically around 7 grams.
- Connector Type: The XT60 female connector has bullet-style connectors as well, with a female bullet connector and a plastic housing with two open slots to receive the male connector.
Key Features:
- Current Rating: The XT60 connectors are designed to handle high currents and are commonly rated for currents up to 60 amps.
- Secure Connection: The XT60 connectors provide a secure and reliable connection, ensuring proper power transmission and reducing the risk of accidental disconnection.
- Anti-Spark Design: The XT60 connectors are designed to minimize sparking when connecting or disconnecting power, which helps protect the electrical components.
- Polarity: The XT60 connectors are polarized, meaning they have a specific male-female orientation to ensure correct polarity during connection. This helps prevent accidental reverse polarity, which can cause damage to the connected devices.
It's worth noting that the XT60 connectors are not officially standardized by any specific industry organization but have become widely adopted within the RC hobby community due to their reliability and robustness.
